CoinBase will then send you an email to verify the transaction, so check your email and click on the “Confirm Withdrawal” button.

That’s it, check your OspreyFX client portal and your Bitcoin will be credited once it has 6 confirmations. The speed of confirmations is determined by the blockchain. You can check progress here, by putting in the address you send bitcoin to in the search bar.

The amount of bitcoin you send whether higher or lower will be credited to your account automatically.
