  Sure! When you make an Ethereum transaction on Coinbase, it requires 12 confirmations before it is considered fully confirmed. This is to ensure the security and validity of the transaction. Each confirmation represents a block added to the Ethereum blockchain, and it typically takes around 3 minutes for a new block to be added. So, you can expect your transaction to be fully confirmed in approximately 36 minutes. Keep in mind that this confirmation process may vary depending on network congestion and other factors.
