24-Hour Ethereum Return? Depends on Bridge or Exchange

You asked if you will get the funds back on the Ethereum side within 24 hours. I can’t guarantee a time without knowing which bridge, L2 or exchange you used.

Timing depends on the service: centralized exchanges often process withdrawals within 24 hours, but trustless L2/bridge withdrawals can take much longer (challenge periods or batch settlements can be up to several days). Fast-exit services or relayers can shorten withdrawal times for a fee.

If you tell me the exact bridge or exchange and share the transaction ID or withdrawal status, I can give a precise estimate and steps to speed it up.
