Have you "x2", "x10" your account with altcoins, memecoins? Is your wallet profiting tens of thousands, even hundreds of thousands of USD? Congratulations!
But the truth that few people mention: It's not hard to get rich from crypto. However, safely withdrawing money – that is the real challenge.
⚠️ Risks When Withdrawing Profits from Crypto
Many people are making big profits but don't withdraw in time, or after withdrawing, they face legal issues, have their bank account frozen, or get scammed during P2P transactions… Why is that?
Let's go over the potential risks:
Receiving 'dirty' coins: Your wallet may receive tokens previously associated with money laundering, hacking, scams — even if you are completely unaware.
Bank account frozen: When a large amount of money flows into an account without a clear source, the bank has the right to freeze the account for 'checking'.
High-risk P2P transactions: If trading with untrustworthy strangers, you are likely to fall into scams or even legal trouble.
Bank delays or refuses transactions: Many banks are not friendly to crypto and may refuse withdrawal/receipt orders without clear reasons.
Easily labeled as 'suspicious transaction': Large, quick crypto transactions often fall into the category that requires further investigation.
👉 The traditional financial system is not designed to handle large crypto cash flows. For them, fast transactions, large amounts = suspicious.
✅ Safe Ways to Withdraw Crypto, Minimize Risks
Don't just think about making profits. Think about protecting your achievements. Here are 4 vital principles to safely withdraw your money:
1. Avoid 'Too Good to Be True' Offers
If someone offers to buy your coin at a higher price than the market, or helps you withdraw money 'without fees' — 90% chance it's a scam. Don’t be tempted by cheap or quick offers.
2. Only Use Trusted P2P Platforms
Always use major P2P exchanges like Binance, OKX, Bybit… that have escrow systems and internal chat to protect you.
Absolutely do not meet for direct cash transactions. The risks are extremely high!
3. Withdraw Money in Small Portions
Don't deposit $50K or $100K all at once. Split it up; each time, you should only withdraw about $5K–$20K/day to avoid being flagged as unusual by the bank/exchange.
4. Choose a Bank Friendly to Crypto
In Vietnam, some banks are more accommodating to crypto transactions like TPBank, Techcombank, ACB…
Always keep transaction evidence: receipts, screenshots, wallet addresses, tax information. Very important if questioned.
🎯 Conclusion: Don’t Play Fast – Play Smart
In the crypto market, a wrong decision can cause you to lose everything, even if you have previously earned a lot.
Don't be complacent.
Don't rush.
Take it slow, but steady.
Profits are not enough. What you need is safety and peace of mind after cashing out. Know the risks. Understand the rules of the game. And always stay one step ahead!
