What Are Pending Holds on Coinbase?

Pending Holds on Coinbase are funds that are being held by the exchange to cover possible losses from pending transactions. When you place a buy or sell order on Coinbase, your funds are placed on hold until the order is executed.

If the order is not executed, the funds are released back to your account. However, if the order is executed, the funds are used to cover any losses incurred by the transaction.

Pending Holds can be placed on your account for a variety of reasons. For example, if you place a buy order for a cryptocurrency that is not yet listed on Coinbase, your funds will be placed on hold until the currency is listed.

Additionally, if you place an order for a currency that is not yet supported by Coinbase, your funds will also be placed on hold.

NOTE: WARNING: Coinbase Pending Holds can be a financially risky investment. Be sure to understand the risks associated with this feature before investing, as Coinbase is not responsible for any losses incurred by users. Additionally, understand the fees associated with Pending Holds and that these fees may vary depending on the amount held. Lastly, always research and double-check the legitimacy of a potential investment before committing your funds.

Pending Holds can also be placed on your account if you have made a withdrawal from Coinbase that has not yet been processed by your bank. In this case, the funds are being held by Coinbase until they are received by your bank.

Once the funds have been received, they will be released back to your account.

If you have pending holds on your account, you will not be able to access those funds until they are released. However, you can still view the amount of pending holds on your account by logging into your Coinbase account and navigating to the “Account” page.

From there, you will see a list of all pending holds on your account, as well as the date when those funds will be released.
