Copy the wallet address that is shown
After selecting the cryptocurrency, you’ll need to select ‘Deposit‘.
This will give you a wallet address that you’ll need to copy over to Coinhako.
There are 2 important things that you’ll need to take note of:
- The wallet address you’re depositing to has to be in the same currency as the one that you’re withdrawing from
- The deposit address has to be copied letter for letter
It is very important that you ensure that both of these steps are followed carefully.
Otherwise, you may lose your crypto forever!
Go to ‘Wallet’ on Coinhako and select the currency to send
Once you’ve obtained the address to send to, you’ll need to go to Coinhako to start sending your funds.
You’ll need to go to ‘Wallet‘, and then select the currency that you wish to withdraw.
Enter the withdrawal details on Coinhako
After selecting the currency you wish to withdraw, you’ll need to enter the withdrawal details on Coinhako.
You’ll also be able to see the fees that you’ll incur when you send the currency over.
Confirm the withdrawal with your 2FA
After requesting your withdrawal, you’ll need to authenticate your withdrawal with a code from your 2FA app.

This may take a while, depending on the congestion of the network.
Which cryptocurrencies can I send from Coinhako to KuCoin?

While Bitcoin will have a lot of trading pairs on KuCoin, the withdrawal fees that Coinhako charges you can be quite expensive.
You can’t withdraw BNB or ADA from Coinhako
If you are looking to send BNB or ADA to KuCoin, it is not possible for you to do so! This is because ADA and BNB are trade only tokens on Coinhako, which means that you cannot send or receive these tokens.
What are the fees that Coinhako charges for sending to KuCoin?
To save on withdrawal fees, the best cryptocurrencies to withdraw from Coinhako are XRP, XLM, BCH and LTC.
Here are the withdrawal fees for these cryptocurrencies on Coinhako:

---|---|
XRP | 0.01 |
LTC | 0.001 |
BCH | 0.00005 |
XLM | 0.1 |
Most of these only cost a few cents in SGD!
If you choose to send either BTC or ETH from Coinhako, the withdrawal fees can be rather costly:
Currency | Withdrawal Fee |
---|---|
BTC | 0.0005 BTC |
ETH | 0.008 ETH |
Even though it may seem like a small amount due to the number of decimal places, it is actually quite a high sum when you convert it back to SGD.
As such, the 4 currencies would be the most cost-effective way of sending cryptocurrencies from Coinhako to KuCoin.
