Guides
- What to Do When an Exchange Freezes Withdrawals
When withdrawals stop, the first job is working out which of four things is happening: a routine hold on a recent deposit, a compliance review of your account, a temporary pause on one asset or network, or a venue-wide halt, because only the last one is an emergency and the first is usually documented on the exchange's own fee page.
- Exchange Verification Tiers and Limits Explained
A verification tier is the level of identity evidence an exchange holds about you, and it controls what you are allowed to do: which deposit and withdrawal rails you can use, how much you can move in a given period, and in some cases which products and assets are available to your account at all.
- How to Use a Block Explorer to Check a Transaction
A block explorer is a public search engine for a blockchain, and you check a transaction by pasting its hash into the search box and reading three fields: the status, the number of confirmations, and the receiving address.
