#### Description

This table store the VESTS withdrawals (i.e. Powerdown) requests from users.

A powerdown request will be split into multiple virtual operations (see [VOFillVestingWithdraws](https://docs.hivesql.io/technical-informations/virtual-operations/vofillvestingwithdraws)) at the pace of one per week (currently 13 weeks)

Each subsequent `withdraw_vesting` operation issued from a user will reset the powerdown duration to 13 weeks if the previous one is not complete.
