So You Want to Ditch Your Crypto? A (Hopefully) Hilarious Guide to Selling on SoFi (Because Let's Face It, We've All Been There)
Ah, cryptocurrency. The land of lambos, moon landings, and... oh wait, that's just what the memes promised. Let's be honest, sometimes the crypto market does a nosedive faster than your drunk uncle at a family reunion. So, if you're here because your meme stock dreams have fizzled faster than a wet firecracker, and you're ready to cash out that digital gold (or, more likely, pebbles), then this guide is for you!
Step 1: Accepting Defeat (But Not Really)
Let's get this out of the way. Selling crypto can feel like admitting defeat to the ever-fluctuating market gods.

SoFi
Says Sayonara to Crypto (But Not You!)**Tip: Reading in short bursts can keep focus high.
Here's the thing: SoFi actually stopped offering crypto services in December 2023. So, if you haven't already sold your crypto holdings, you'll need to transfer them out to another platform.

Step 3: The Great Crypto Escape (Or Transfer, Whatever)
So, how do you actually move your crypto out of SoFi? This part depends on where you're transferring to, but it shouldn't be too complicated. In general, you'll need to find the transfer function in your SoFi Invest account and follow the prompts. Just be careful! Double-check the address you're sending your crypto to – sending crypto to the wrong place is like accidentally donating your life savings to a Nigerian prince (spoiler alert: it won't end well).

QuickTip: Read a little, pause, then continue.
Selling on Your New Crypto Platform
(Because SoFi Can't Help You Now)Once your crypto is safely nestled in its new home, you can finally sell it! The selling process will vary depending on the platform you choose, but it's usually pretty straightforward. Look for a "sell" or "trade" option, pick your poison (i.e., which fiat currency you want), and boom, you're a crypto ex-pat (with hopefully some cash in your pocket).
