Effective January 9, 2024, Coinbase will no longer support Bitcoin SV (BSV). Customers have until this date (at or around 12PM ET) to send BSV funds off of Coinbase.
What happens if I keep my BSV on Coinbase?
After the deprecation date, any BSV funds in your Coinbase account will be liquidated and converted to the then-equivalent market value of another supported digital asset and credited back to your account, minus any transaction costs.
Note: After accounting for transaction costs, and subject to market fluctuations, you may not receive any compensation when the remaining BSV in your account is liquidated. You may also incur tax liability or have other unanticipated tax consequences as a result of the liquidation or conversion. Customers are solely responsible for any taxes associated with transactions on Coinbase.
How can I send my BSV off of Coinbase?
To send your BSV off of Coinbase prior to the deprecation date, you’ll need to secure a BSV-compatible wallet address. If you do not already have one, you’ll need to generate one after selecting a BSV-compatible wallet.
Coinbase Wallet does not support BSV and users will need to research a BSV-compatible wallet. Please remember that different platforms have different levels of security, reliability, and liquidity.
