💸 #CryptoFees101 – Where Your Crypto Fees Go 🧾
Every time you trade or transfer crypto, you pay a fee — but not all fees are the same.
Here’s what you need to know:
⸻
⚙️ 1. Trading Fees
Charged by exchanges (like Binance) when you buy/sell.
• Maker Fee – for placing limit orders
• Taker Fee – for market orders that fill instantly
💡 Tip: Holding BNB = lower trading fees on Binance
⸻
🔗 2. Network Fees (Gas Fees)
Paid to blockchain validators for processing your transactions.
• ETH Network – gas can spike in busy times
• BTC Network – fee depends on transaction size
• Layer 2s – cheaper, faster options (e.g., Arbitrum, Polygon)
⸻
🏦 3. Withdrawal Fees
When you move crypto off an exchange to your wallet.
• Fixed or variable depending on the asset
• Always double-check before confirming!
⸻
💡 Save fees by:
✅ Using limit orders
✅ Trading during low network activity
✅ Choosing the right blockchain (L2 > L1)
