๐ธ Letโs talk about the hidden costs of crypto
๐ Maker vs Taker Fees
Maker: You add liquidity by placing limit orders = lower fees ๐ข
Taker: You take liquidity with market orders = higher fees ๐ด
๐ก Tip: Use limit orders to save!
โฝ๏ธ Gas Fees
Paid to process transactions on blockchains like Ethereum
Can spike during network congestion ๐ฉ
๐ก Tip: Use L2s like Arbitrum or Polygon for cheaper gas โฝ๏ธโก
๐ง Withdrawal Fees
Charged by exchanges when moving crypto out
Varies by coin & platform
๐ก Tip: Use native networks (e.g., TRC20 for USDT) when available to save ๐งฎ
๐ I mostly deal with gas + taker fees (Iโm a market-order addict sometimes ๐ )
โ My cost-saving tricks:
Trade during low network activity
Use exchanges with fee discounts for holding their token
Batch transactions when possible
Always double-check the network before sending
Your crypto is only worth what you keep. Spend smart.
