How to Transfer Cryptocurrency
Open your wallet app or web interface and log in.
Find the "Send" section in your wallet.
Paste the recipient's wallet address. Ensure it's correct to avoid loss of funds.
Enter the amount of cryptocurrency you want to send. Ensure you have enough funds, including the network fee.
Verify all details (address, amount, fee) and confirm the transaction. Use your password or two-factor authentication if applicable.
After sending, track the status using the transaction ID (TxID) in a blockchain explorer.
