  Micro deposits in the world of digital currencies are small amounts of funds that are sent to verify the ownership of a bank account or wallet. This process is commonly used by exchanges and platforms to ensure that the account or wallet belongs to the user. It usually involves sending a small amount of cryptocurrency or fiat currency to the user's account, which the user then needs to verify by providing the exact amount received. Once the verification is successful, the user can proceed with larger transactions and withdrawals.

  Micro deposits are like the digital equivalent of a test transaction. They are used to confirm that the account or wallet you're using actually belongs to you. It's a security measure to prevent fraud and unauthorized access. The process usually involves sending a small amount of money to your account, which you then need to verify by providing the exact amount received. Once the verification is complete, you can use the account or wallet for larger transactions.

  Micro deposits are a common method used by digital currency exchanges to verify the ownership of a bank account or wallet. When you sign up for an account, the exchange will send a small amount of money to your account. You then need to check your account statement or wallet balance to find the exact amount received. Once you have the amount, you can enter it on the exchange's website to complete the verification process. This helps ensure that only the account or wallet owner can access and use the exchange's services.
