  • Extra tips to make the process smooth and secure

This is going to be fun and easy, I promise! Now let‘s get your hard-earned crypto profits withdrawn like a pro.

Can You Withdraw Directly from Trust Wallet to a Bank?

First things first – Trust Wallet is a decentralized, non-custodial wallet. This means YOU control the private keys. Only you have access to your crypto funds in Trust Wallet, not any company or third-party.

This level of security is awesome. But the downside is that decentralized wallets like Trust don‘t support converting crypto directly into fiat currency like USD or EUR.

Trust Wallet also doesn’t connect directly with the banking system for withdrawals.

So you can’t simply withdraw Bitcoin from Trust Wallet directly to your Chase or Wells Fargo account. That’s where centralized crypto exchanges come in…

Bridging Trust Wallet and Centralized Exchanges

To cash out your Trust Wallet balance, you need to bridge the decentralized wallet with a centralized exchange that supports fiat withdrawals.

Popular exchanges that allow withdraws to bank accounts include:

  • Coinbase: Supports withdrawals to US bank accounts and EU banks via SEPA transfer.

  • Binance: Offers withdrawals to global bank accounts via SWIFT, SEPA, Faster Payments and more.

  • Kraken: Withdrawals to US, Canadian, and European bank accounts.

I recommend sticking to big, mainstream exchanges like these because they have the proper licenses, compliance, and banking relationships to make fiat withdrawals a breeze.

So in summary, to withdraw from Trust Wallet you’ll need to:

  1. Move your crypto from Trust Wallet to an exchange
  2. Trade your crypto for fiat currency on the exchange
  3. Withdraw those fiat funds to your connected bank account

Let‘s go through each step now…

Step 1: Transfer Crypto from Trust Wallet to Exchange

The first step is to transfer the crypto you want to cash out from Trust Wallet to your account on the exchange.

Here‘s how:

  1. Log into your exchange account and find your wallet address for the crypto you‘re transferring. For example, the BTC deposit address if sending Bitcoin.

  2. Open your Trust Wallet app and tap the token you want to send to the exchange.

  3. Tap “Send” and enter the withdrawal address from your exchange account. Triple check it matches EXACTLY.

  4. Enter the transfer amount and continue. Make sure you leave enough to cover network fees.

  5. Review all the details carefully. Then confirm the transaction.

  6. Wait for the transfer to complete before your funds show up in the exchange wallet. This usually takes 30 minutes up to a few hours, depending on traffic.

Once you see your former Trust Wallet balance in your exchange account – congrats, you‘ve completed Step 1! Now you‘re ready to trade for fiat…

Step 2: Trading Crypto for Fiat Currency

The next step is exchanging your crypto for fiat currency on the exchange so you can withdraw it to your bank.

Here are the steps for trading your crypto for fiat:

  1. Go to the trading page on your exchange and select the crypto you transferred from Trust Wallet.

  2. Enter the amount you want to sell and pick your fiat currency – e.g. USD, EUR, GBP.

  3. Place a market order to instantly convert at current prices, or use a limit order to set a target price. I recommend a market order when first starting out for simplicity.

  4. Double check all the order details look right, then click buy/sell to complete the trade.

Almost instantly, your crypto will be exchanged for the fiat currency you selected. For example, 1 BTC swapped into USD fiat, ready for withdrawing to your bank.

Now your crypto is converted to fiat, you just need to…

Step 3: Withdraw Fiat to Your Bank Account

This last step is all about initiating the withdrawal from the exchange to your connected bank account.

Coinbase Withdrawal

  1. Go to your USD wallet and select the bank account you want to withdraw to.

  2. Enter the amount of USD you want to withdraw.

  3. Review the details carefully then confirm the withdrawal.

It takes 1-3 business days for Coinbase withdrawals to reach your bank account.

Binance Withdrawal

  1. Go to Wallet > Fiat > Withdraw and pick your currency like EUR.

  2. Enter the amount to withdraw and select your withdrawal network – SEPA, SWIFT, etc.

  3. Input your bank details if not already saved.

  4. Review and submit the withdrawal request.

Binance processing times vary by network, but are usually between 1-5 days.

Once you’ve initiated the withdrawal, you just have to wait for the fiat funds to land in your bank account based on the delivery estimate.

And voilà! You‘ve successfully completed withdrawing your crypto from Trust Wallet all the way to your bank account. Well done!

Tips for a Smooth Withdrawal Process

To ensure everything goes off without a hitch, here are some pro tips:

  • Start by withdrawing a small test amount before moving your full balance, so you can get familiar with the process.

  • Triple and quadruple check the receiving address and other details when initiating transfers to avoid costly mistakes.

  • Stick to large, mainstream exchanges like Coinbase and Binance for withdrawals – they have the best banking support and regulatory compliance.

  • Withdraw early in the week to avoid delays from banks being closed on weekends.

  • Keep an eye on exchange withdrawal fees – they vary based on currency, amounts, and networks.

  • Make sure the exchange account and bank account are in the same name to prevent issues.

  • Consider taxes when cashing out large amounts of crypto – track capital gains and losses.

  • If you get stuck or lost at any point, don‘t fret! Reach out to the exchange or bank’s customer support for assistance.

Okay, we‘ve covered a ton of ground here today. Let‘s do a quick recap…
