The process I followed was:
* create an account on binance.com
* transfer the stellars there, making sure to follow the instructions about the MEMO_TEXT.
* convert the lumens into bitcoin
* transfer the bitcoin to coinbase
* sell it.
There is probably a more optimized or less expensive way to accomplish this, but this was the easiest way for me, and binance did not require a social security number or photo id like some sites wanted.
