Step by step: how to make a crypto withdrawal
Exchanges, wallets, and platforms are different, so the exact steps you need to take depend on the specific platform.
But the basics are generally the same.
In order to withdraw cryptos from one platform to another, it's helpful if you have them both open.
In the crypto wallet/exchange/platform where you want to make the deposit to:
- Find your wallet address for the crypto you want to deposit.
- You will find it under Deposit -> Crypto and then searching for the right crypto and pressing deposit button
- Now choose the network (this network needs to be the same as the network you choose in the exchange your're withdrawing from)
- You'll see the address your deposit needs to be sent to
- Copy that address
Now, open the platform you want to withdraw crypto from and:
- Click on the Wallet/Holdings link or find it under your Profile menu
- Click Withdraw
- Find the cryptocurrency you want to withdraw
- Paste the address you copied from the other platform (the address you want to deposit [withdraw to] the crypto)
- Choose the network
- Choose the amount to withdraw
- Click submit
Now, depending on the exact platform, you might need to verify your withdrawal with a password, or with a code they send you to your email and/or phone
And now just wait until the withdrawal has been completed.
Please keep in mind that whenever you withdraw crypto, make sure that you only deposit X crypto to X crypto wallet using the same network.
If you try to deposit Bitcoin to Ethereum address, if it happens to go through, your money is lost forever.
If you try to deposit Bitcoin to Bitcoin address, but using different networks, your money is lost forever.
Possible problems when making crypto withdrawals
There are couple of usual issues you might come across when trying to make a crypto withdrawal. Let's take a look at just a few of them.
I am unable to make a withdrawal
There are many exchanges that allow you to make a deposit and even trade cryptos, but when it comes time to make your first withdrawal, they want you to verify your identity first.
Than might be the most common issue you can come across.
I made a Bitcoin withdrawal worth $50, but I only received $10
We mentioned the crypto withdrawal fees before - most likely that's the reason. The withdrawal fees vary from exchange to exchange and crypto to crypto and sometimes they can be pretty high.
So before confirming the withdrawal, always make sure you pay attention to the fee. Normally you'll be shown the fee on the withdrawal page.
I made a withdrawal 12 hours ago, but it still hasn't arrived
In most cases that's way too long and it might make sense to get in touch with the exchange customer support.
But before doing so, check your account and see if you actually completed the withdrawal.
Conclusion
Making crypto withdrawals is easy, but you always need to pay attention to details to make sure you don't lose your money, and that you don't spend too much on the crypto withdrawal fees.
