People in the crypto circle often say: "Making more money isn't as stable as just cashing out safely"—and this really hits the nail on the head.



Recently, a friend’s crypto assets multiplied by dozens of times, and he planned to cash out a few million yuan. But after transferring only 500,000 yuan to his bank account, the bank’s relationship manager immediately called with a series of questions that made him break out in a cold sweat. This isn’t an isolated case. As someone who has been in this space for years, I want to share some insights on the "safe withdrawal" process—especially for friends with larger funds—based on real experience and regulatory logic.

**Core Points of Bank Risk Control**

Many people misunderstand and think, "Small transfers won’t attract the bank’s attention; only large ones will be scrutinized." But the bank’s risk control system is much more detailed than that. There are two key principles to remember:

**First is the amount threshold.** If the total amount in a single day reaches over 500,000 yuan, it will trigger the bank’s "large transaction report" and automatically flag the transaction. After that, the relationship manager is very likely to call you with "greetings"—ostensibly to recommend financial products, but actually to probe the specific destination of the funds. At this point, stay calm and simply say "investment returns" without over-explaining or appearing nervous.

**Second is the transfer frequency.** No matter how small the amount, if there are frequent transactions in a short period (for example, 10 transactions in one day, each involving tens of thousands, or transferring funds immediately after receipt), this will immediately trigger the "suspicious transaction monitoring" system. I’ve seen the most frustrating case: someone transferred 500,000 yuan daily over six days, and as a result, their non-counter transactions were restricted, they could only withdraw cash at the bank counter, and they were required to provide complete proof of the source of funds.

**Key Understanding**

Banks are not trying to suppress people making money; they are preventing "unknown source" funds. Once transaction flows show anomalies, the account may be restricted or even frozen. Therefore, planning the withdrawal rhythm in advance is much wiser than trying to explain after the fact.

Damn, just one rotation of 500,000 and I was targeted. My friend was also a victim before, now withdrawals have to be done in parts. So troublesome.

The data aspect has indeed been underestimated. According to research, banks' risk control algorithms are far more complex than they appear on the surface. From a technical perspective, frequency anomalies and amount jumps have long been incorporated into a multi-dimensional scoring system. It is worth noting that many people still hold the misconception of "small amounts are harmless," which is precisely the most dangerous...

500,000 triggers being watched immediately, it's really incredible... My friend was directly restricted from non-counter transactions that time, and could only queue at the counter to withdraw cash, a social death scene. Frequency is more important than amount, gotta cleverly disperse transfers to impress.

500,000 in a day and I was bombarded with phone calls. This scheme is really clever... My friend is the same way; spreading out transfers actually makes it easier to be targeted. The bank is quite cunning.

Really, frequent small transfers are actually more likely to attract attention; many people have misunderstood this.

Banks start paying attention once it reaches 500,000, and that's when I realized why people in the circle say to diversify withdrawals. If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have gone all in.

Once I make a move with 500,000, the banks start to watch me. That's why I now spread it across several accounts... Tuition fees are too expensive.
