How to Find My Coinbase Wallet Address

If you use Coinbase on the web, sign in, select your Profile or Assets, then choose the asset you want to receive. Click Receive, confirm the correct network if prompted, then copy the address or scan the QR code with the sender’s app.

If you use the Coinbase Wallet browser extension, open the extension, select the account and network, choose the asset, and click Receive to reveal the QR code and the full address. You can copy the string or click Share to send it to a counterparty.

In the Coinbase exchange app, tap the Transfer icon or Receive, select the asset, confirm the network, then copy the address or show the QR code. The steps are the same on iOS and Android, though the Receive button may appear on the home screen or inside the asset detail page, depending on your version.

In Coinbase Wallet, the self-custody app that Coinbase briefly renamed Base App between July 2025 and September 2026, open the app, choose the correct account, tap Receive, pick the asset, and verify the network. You will see a QR code and an address you can copy or share. Depending on when your app last updated, you may still see Base App branding. The Receive flow is the same either way.

It is normal to have more than one address. In Coinbase Wallet, you can create multiple accounts for the same network to separate activity by purpose, such as DeFi, NFTs, or long-term storage. This can make tracking simpler and improve privacy.

Different assets and networks require different addresses. An Ethereum address that starts with 0x will not work for Bitcoin, and a Solana address will not work on Ethereum. Exchanges may also rotate deposit addresses for security. Always match the asset and network before you send.

For tax purposes in the United States, crypto is treated as property. Selling, swapping, or spending from Coinbase Wallet is a disposal that creates a capital gain or loss you report on Form 8949 and Schedule D. If you earn tokens through staking, airdrops, or as payment, that value is ordinary income when you have control.

Self-custody changes what the IRS sees. Form 1099-DA reporting began with 2025 transactions and covers gross proceeds from dispositions, with cost basis reporting phasing in for 2026, but that applies to custodial brokers like the Coinbase exchange. Your wallet issues nothing. That matters most when you move assets between the two. Coins you bought on the exchange and sent to your wallet arrive with no basis attached, so if you later sell them somewhere that does report, the proceeds can show up on a 1099-DA with the basis blank. Keeping your own acquisition records is what closes that gap.

To file, pull your public addresses for each network, export activity from block explorers or connect to TokenTax, and reconcile buys, sells, swaps, transfers, fees, and income. Keep TXIDs, timestamps, asset symbols, wallet labels, and fiat values so your return is complete and crypto tax audit ready.
