Popular cryptocurrency exchange Coinbase is one of the leading crypto exchanges, but how do you go about sending coins to your crypto wallet from Coinbase?
In the battle of crypto exchanges versus crypto wallets, wallets are often preferred as they give you total control of your cryptocurrency keys. However, this does come with its risks.
Let's take a look at some simple procedures on how to withdraw cryptocurrency from Coinbase and transfer it to a wallet.
Cryptocurrency Withdrawals Via Coinbase
To withdraw funds from your Coinbase accounts or to send them later from Coinbase to Metamask, or from Coinbase to Binance, users are required to log in to their respective user accounts and click on the Withdraw button next to the cryptocurrency section listed in the balance category.
The same process can be repeated while tranferring crypto from Coinbase to Coinbase Wallet
As soon as a user clicks on the button, a window will pop up. This will ask users about how much funds they would like to transfer and where would they want their funds to go (wallet/bank account).
To make its services more comprehensive, Coinbase has also facilitated a new Coinbase listings page for users to track the latest crypto additions in its database. The repository helps users track what new coins are listed on the exchange and are available for future trade.
Users must pay 1% of the total transaction to Coinbase as a network fee charged by the exchange.
