#CryptoFees101 Ever made a trade and wondered "Where did a portion of my funds go?" Welcome to #CryptoFees101—your crash course on understanding crypto fees and how to minimize them.

🔍 What Are Crypto Fees?

Fees are the small costs associated with trading, transferring, or using crypto. Knowing how they work helps you trade smarter and save more.

🔹 1. Trading Fees (on CEXs like Binance)

Every time you buy or sell, you pay a maker or taker fee.

Maker = You add liquidity (limit orders)

Taker = You take liquidity (market orders)

💡 Pro Tip: Makers usually pay lower fees than takers.

🔹 2. Network Fees (Gas Fees)

Charged by the blockchain when sending crypto or using smart contracts.

Ethereum gas fees can be high during congestion

BNB Chain, Solana, and others offer lower-cost alternatives

🔹 3. Withdrawal Fees

When you transfer crypto out of an exchange, a small fee covers the network transaction.

🔹 4. Swap/Conversion Fees (on DEXs)

Swapping tokens on platforms like Uniswap or PancakeSwap includes both a platform fee and gas costs.

🧠 Tips to Reduce Fees:

✅ Use limit orders when possible

✅ Trade on low-fee networks (e.g., BNB Smart Chain)

✅ Check fee schedules on your exchange

✅ Consider holding platform tokens (e.g., BNB) for discounts

Every satoshi counts. Make your crypto work harder by keeping fees low and awareness high.

Trade smart. Save more.
