Know Before You Trade!

Crypto fees can eat into your profits if you’re not careful. Here’s a quick guide to understand the most common types:

⸻

🔹 1. Trading Fees

Charged by exchanges when you buy or sell crypto.

• Maker Fee (you add liquidity) = usually lower

• Taker Fee (you remove liquidity) = usually higher

📊 Typical range: 0.1%–0.5% per trade

🔹 2. Network Fees (Gas Fees)

Paid to blockchain miners/validators for processing transactions.

• Ethereum: Can get expensive during high traffic

• Bitcoin: Varies with congestion

⛽ Tip: Use off-peak hours to save on gas!

🔹 3. Withdrawal Fees

Charged when moving crypto from an exchange to your wallet.

💼 Some coins have flat fees, others vary by amount

🔹 4. Deposit Fees

Rare, but some platforms charge for fiat or crypto deposits.

🔹 5. Hidden Fees

Watch out for spread fees (the gap between buy/sell prices).
