  The withdrawal tag is commonly used for cryptocurrencies that are built on networks with multiple users sharing the same address, such as Ripple (XRP) and Stellar (XLM). These networks use the withdrawal tag to differentiate between different users and ensure that funds are properly allocated. Without providing the withdrawal tag, your funds may not be credited to your account or may be credited to the wrong account.
