đž Crypto Fees 101: Where Does Your Money Go? đ€
Before you hit "send" on that crypto transaction, know this: fees matter.
Hereâs a quick breakdown đ§ đ
đč Network Fees (Gas Fees)
Paid to miners/validators to process your transaction.
đ ETH = Gas
đ BTC = Miner fee
✠Tip: Fees rise when networks are congested.
đč Exchange Fees
Centralized exchanges (like Binance, Coinbase) charge:
â Trading fees (buy/sell)
â Withdrawal fees
â Sometimes even deposit fees!
đč Slippage
Not a âfee,â but still costs you.
Itâs the difference between expected & executed price, especially in volatile markets or low liquidity.
đ How to Save on Fees:
â Trade during low-traffic times
â Use Layer 2 solutions (like Arbitrum, Polygon)
â Compare exchange rates
â Donât forget those hidden costs!
Crypto isn't freeâbut smart users donât overpay. đ§ đŒ
