Withdrawal hold
Certain transactions, such as ACH purchases, Paypaldebit or credit card purchases or digital wallet purchases will trigger a temporary (72 hour) withdrawal hold on the account, for security purposes. Cash deposits via ACH Plaid are held from withdrawal for 7 days. This hold applies to withdrawals in any crypto or fiat currency.
To withdraw cryptocurrencies from your Kraken account, you must first add and confirm the withdrawal address.
