I there a limit how much btc one can sell on coinbase per twenty-four hour period. I heard somewhere, its less than one thousand dollars, but not sure if thats right. Thanks in advance.

It could be true if your account is not verified fully. Most likely there are only withdrawal limits.
I would verify my account, to be able to sell and withradaw without limits.

I believe the default daily sell limit is $10,000.

The limits are set based on your individual account. If you go through the normal verification process then your daily limits will max out at $10k per day, however if you can document your assets and go through additional verifications you can get your limits raised further.

Thanks everyone for your help. I see my limits now on the site.
Not sure where I heard it, but I thought there were some legalities tied to selling more than a thousand within a twenty-four hour period. I guess if coinbase allows it it must be legal.

It's true even if you are fully verified. I'm verified and have a weekly sell limit, which is less than what I have on balance.


My limit is by week and is less than $10,000. So a default may be meaningless. And it's most certainly not a daily limit. I have to believe that the limit is based on your personal activity, how much you have on deposit, the size of transactions you've made, whether you buy with a bank account or credit card.

What's most important is that if you go to Coinbase and click on "sell" you'll see your limits. They make it very clear, what your total limit is and what your progress toward that limit may be fore the week.
