Let‘s dive in.

Why You Need an Exchange to Withdraw Crypto

First things first – Trust Wallet is a non-custodial wallet. This means you control your own private keys, not Trust Wallet. The company cannot access your funds.

This gives you security and privacy benefits compared to keeping coins on an exchange.

But there‘s a catch…

Non-custodial wallets don‘t offer any direct way to withdraw your crypto as fiat currency. Trust Wallet only lets you send, receive, store, and swap crypto assets.

To convert your coins to cash in your bank account, you need to use a centralized crypto exchange like Binance that supports fiat withdrawals.

Here‘s why Binance is the best choice:

Supports 300+ crypto assets – Virtually any coin you hold in Trust Wallet will be listed on Binance. This makes trading easy.
High liquidity – $15 billion+ in daily trading volume means you can cash out large amounts with minimal slippage.
Low trading fees – Binance has very competitive fee tiers from 0.1% down to 0.02% with BNB discounts.
Global user base – 90 million+ users across the world means more counterparties and liquidity.
Smooth fiat off-ramps – Withdraw EUR, GBP or other currencies directly to your bank account.
Top notch security – Binance has robust security protections like mandatory 2FA, SAFU funds, and crypto insurance.
Easy to use interface – The platform is intuitive enough for complete beginners.

Withdrawing through a P2P platform like LocalBitcoins is another option, but exchanges like Binance offer a simpler experience.

Let‘s go through the step-by-step process now.

Step 1: Set Up Your Binance Account

If you already have a Binance account, you can skip ahead to Step 2.

If not, setting up a new Binance account only takes a few minutes.

Here‘s how to create your account:

Go to Binance.com and click "Register".
Enter your email and choose a secure password.
Verify your account via the confirmation email.
Complete identity verification (KYC). You‘ll need to provide your legal name, address, date of birth, and a government ID.

Pro Tip: Ensure your ID has no glare and is clearly visible. This will help avoid delays.

Once your account is created, enable 2-factor authentication for extra security.

Get your crypto deposit addresses

Log in and mouse over "Wallets" in the top menu.
Click "Spot Wallet". This is where you‘ll find all your deposit addresses.
Find the crypto you want to deposit and click "Deposit". This will be the same asset you‘ll transfer from Trust Wallet.
Copy the address and memo (if required). For Bitcoin, you only need the address. For BNB, you need both address and memo.
Keep the Wallet page open as you‘ll need to paste the address when transferring from Trust Wallet next.

Now you‘re all set up on Binance and ready to initiate the withdrawal from Trust Wallet.

Step 2: Transfer Crypto from Trust Wallet to Binance

With your Binance deposit address handy, you can now send funds from Trust Wallet to Binance easily.

Here are the detailed steps:

Open your Trust Wallet app and tap the crypto you want to withdraw. For this example, let‘s use BNB.
Tap “Send”. This will bring up the Send screen.
Paste the BNB deposit address you copied from Binance into the "Recipient Address" field.
In the Memo field, paste the memo/tag if required. For BNB transfers you need the memo.
Enter the amount of BNB you want to transfer out. Only send what you need – you can always do more transactions later.
Tap “Continue” to move to the confirmation screen. Double and triple check the details!
Tap “Send” to complete the transaction.

The transfer generally takes 5-30 minutes to reflect in your Binance wallet. You can track its status on BscScan.

Once received, you‘re ready for the next step – trading your crypto for fiat.

Step 3: Trade Crypto for Fiat on Binance

The deposited crypto will show in your Binance spot wallet, under the total balance.

Now it‘s time to trade it for fiat currency. Here‘s how:

Mouse over “Exchange” and click “Basic” to switch to the simple trading interface.
On the right, select the fiat currency you want to convert to (for example EUR).
On the left, choose the crypto asset you deposited (for example BNB).
Click “Sell BNB” and enter the amount you want to sell. It will show the estimated EUR value.
Review the details and click “Sell” to execute the trade.

And voila! Your crypto is converted to fiat. Make sure to pay any trading fees in BNB to get a 25% discount.

You can also use the Convert option to directly exchange one asset for another without trading on the markets. The process is mostly the same.

Now that your funds are in fiat currency, it‘s time to withdraw them to your connected bank account.

Step 4: Withdraw Fiat Currency to Your Bank

The final step is withdrawing your exchanged fiat currency from Binance to your bank account.

Here is how to withdraw your funds:

Hover over “Wallet” and click “Fiat and Spot”.
Click “Withdraw” next to the fiat currency (for example EUR).
Select your withdrawal method – Bank transfer or Debit card.
Enter the amount to withdraw and your bank details.
Click “Submit” to complete the withdrawal request.

For SEPA transfers, expect funds in your bank account within 1-3 working days. Debit card withdrawals are usually faster.

Make sure all your bank details are entered correctly to avoid delays. And just like that, you‘ve withdrawn your Trust Wallet crypto to your bank!

Troubleshooting Tips and Common Questions

Moving crypto between wallets and exchanges can be nerve-wracking! Here are some troubleshooting tips:

If your transfer is pending long – Check the blockchain explorer for the transaction status. Pending just means it hasn‘t received enough network confirmations yet.
If your transfer failed – Double check the deposit address and memo/tag were entered correctly. The wrong address will lead to lost funds. Re-do the transfer.
If your withdrawal is stuck – Log into your Binance account and check for any pending verification or identity checks needed. Contact customer support if issues persist.
No memos for Bitcoin – Bitcoin transfers don‘t require a memo, only the address. But BNB and other coins need the memo.
Test with small amounts first – When in doubt, send a small test amount before transferring bigger amounts.
Check currencies and networks – Make sure you‘re using the same currency and blockchain network in both Trust Wallet and Binance.
Track your transfers – Use a blockchain explorer to monitor the status after you send crypto from Trust Wallet. This lets you identify and troubleshoot any potential issues.
Enable account security – Make sure to turn on 2-factor authentication on both Trust Wallet and Binance for better security against hackers and phishing attacks. Don‘t make yourself an easy target!
