Description of the issue: In order to get BAT i need to create a BAT account linked to my Solana wallet address. In order to do so, i need SOL. So i went through the wallet using the BUY button showing only coinbase available for a small purchase. I bought a bit of SOL. Turns out it didn’t go to the brave wallet but a coinbase one. Been trying to send from coinbase to brave but it keeps failing. How do i get the SOL from coinbase to brave to create a BAT account?

Is the issue occurring on a specific network? Trying to transfer SOL so guessing SOL network.

What operating system are you using? Windows 11

Brave Version (check About Brave):

Brave 1.82.161 (Official Build) (64-bit)

Additional Information:

What error are you receiving when trying to send from Coinbase?

After sending there’s a pending with 30 seconds countdown and when going to details this shows up.

This looks like an issue with Coinbase service. You may need to wait until it’s resolved on their end. Where does the Learn more take you?

Just to https://status.coinbase.com/ where it shows everything operational the last few days.

Are you still seeing this issue? You may need to reach out to Coinbase if you’re having trouble sending from their wallet.

I tried it again to get the link for the last reply and tried just now and it worked: https://solana.fm/tx/4QoanUHYU8rb181tskrAwqhjGbo2YRjd9gyVfXoqW5K5KekyN87BAN5MHR11ytz8DoMrLQtE16wJTAzn1f4hynEh?cluster=mainnet-alpha

Your Solana address is now connected!”

So only missing out on about 3 months’ worth of BAT.
