I recently bought some bitcoin on Coinbase, but I'm not sure when it will be available for me to send to another wallet. How long does it usually take for bitcoin to become available for sending on Coinbase?

    Usually, when you buy bitcoin on Coinbase, it will be available for sending within a few minutes. However, in some cases, it may take longer due to network congestion or other technical issues. If your bitcoin is not available for sending after a reasonable amount of time, I would recommend reaching out to Coinbase support for assistance.

    Once you purchase bitcoin on Coinbase, it goes through a verification process to ensure the transaction is secure. This process usually takes a few minutes, but it can sometimes take longer depending on the network traffic. Once the verification is complete, your bitcoin will be available for sending.

    When you buy bitcoin on Coinbase, the availability for sending depends on the payment method you used. For example, if you used a bank transfer, it may take a few business days for the funds to clear and for the bitcoin to become available for sending. However, if you used a debit or credit card, the bitcoin should be available almost instantly. If you have any concerns about the availability of your bitcoin, you can contact Coinbase support for more information.
