CELO - Celo

What is Celo (CELO)?

Celo is a blockchain ecosystem focused on increasing cryptocurrency adoption among smartphone users. Celo Network aims to break down barriers by bringing the powerful benefits of DeFi to all mobile phone users. The idea is for the Layer-1 protocol to allow users to onboard into the system with just their phone number. Making payments in the CELO network is as easy as sending a text message. Through an innovative decentralized address-based identity layer, the Celo network maps phone numbers and wallet addresses. Mobile participants play a role in securing the network and can earn rewards for doing so.

How to Withdraw CELO From Your Coinmetro Account

For all information on how to withdraw CELO from your Coinmetro account, please see the following help center article: How to Withdraw CELO.

Important Note - To request a withdrawal, your account profile needs to be verified as well as having the funds to cover your withdrawal. The first time a withdrawal is made to a destination, the destination needs to be confirmed via e-mail. If you have 2-Factor Authentication enabled for withdrawals, you will be asked to input the code for each withdrawal, approved or not. We suggest enabling 2-Factor Authentication to protect your account.

Withdrawals waiting for approval can be canceled and the withdrawal status can be found by selecting the Wallet on your Coinmetro Dashboard. Please note that already-approved withdrawals cannot be canceled. If there is no Cancel button visible, this unfortunately means the withdrawal can no longer be canceled, and you will find a transaction ID (TXID) instead. This is a link to the relevant transaction hash on a Blockchain Explorer website where the status can be checked further.
