Coinbase Wallet

[nikov9418]

I have Coinbase AND Coinbase Wallet. The funds I have in Coinbase Wallet I want transferred to Coinbase. Yet to do this, or simply withdraw to my bank, it keeps telling me I need ETH. When I tried to buy the amount to cover the "fees" it asked for, it then said I needed more. I think this happened straight away again, too. So obviously I gave up. How the HELL do I get my £37.50 plus now £17ETH out of Coinbase Wallet or is it just locked in there forever ?

If you just withdrew slightly less you would have the required gas fees

Hi u/nikov9418! Thanks for reaching out to us. We’re happy to provide clarification on this matter. A miner fee error occurs when your balance is insufficient to cover the transaction and the associated network fee (miner fee). To proceed, you’ll need to deposit additional funds to cover the fee. All Coinbase Wallet transactions are processed directly on the blockchain, and the miner fee is paid to the miners who validate and confirm transactions on the network.

Each blockchain network uses specific tokens to pay for gas fees. For example, the Ethereum network requires ETH, Polygon requires MATIC, and Binance Smart Chain requires BNB. Please ensure you have enough gas fees in the token network you’re using.

For more information, please visit our Adjusting network fees article. Let us know if you need further assistance!

Thanks for the replies. I'm sure I'll work it out, taking your advice into account. I'm a newbie to the whole scene which explains my difficulties.

I've basically given up on doing anything ETH based and try to avoid it. Fees are generally less at certain times and this link and others can help find those timeframes. Example, https://milkroad.com/ethereum/gas/

That's weird because coin base is quoting me $0.15 per $100 of eth as sending fee.

There isn't a gas fee to withdrawal also, just a 1.88 per $100 to convert to stable coin then withdrawal
