Cryptocurrency Fees – Where Do Your Money Disappear?

Transferred $100 in crypto, but received only $97? 🤔 It's not magic – it's the fees. Let's break it down:

🔹 1. Network Fee (network/gas fee)

This is the payment to miners or validators for processing your transaction.

🪙 Depends on the blockchain:

— Ethereum: can be $5–$50+ during busy periods

— Bitcoin: $1–$10

— Solana/Tron: pennies

🔹 2. Exchange Fee

When you buy/sell on Binance, Bybit, Kraken, etc. – usually 0.1%–0.25%

📉 Maker/Taker models:

— Maker (places the order): lower fee

— Taker (fills the order): slightly higher

🔹 3. Withdrawal Fee

Each exchange has its own conditions. For example:

— USDT (TRC-20): $0.29

— ETH: $5+

— BTC: $10–$20

🔹 4. Hidden Losses - Spread

The buying/selling rate is not always market price. You can lose 0.5%-2% without noticing.

🛡 How to Save?

✅ Choose networks with low fees (TRC-20, Solana)

✅ Work with loyal exchanges (discounts for tokens, like BNB on Binance)

✅ Avoid peak network loads

✅ Check all fees before sending

💬 Now you understand why $3 “just disappeared” from your wallet?

Save this for yourself to avoid losing more!
