🎓 Crypto Basics that Save You Real Money – Do You Really Understand Gas Fees?

đŸ’„ "I lost $40 on a swap – just because of gas fees!"

That's how it was for me during my first DeFi trade. Today I know: If you don't know the basics, you end up paying more. That's why I'm going to show you today how to understand and avoid gas fees.

🔍 What are gas fees anyway?

- ⛜ Gas fees are transaction fees in the blockchain network

- 🧠 They vary depending on network congestion – especially on Ethereum

- 💾 You pay them to reward miners or validators for processing your transaction

📉 How to avoid unnecessary gas costs:

1. ⏰ Timing is everything – transactions at night or on weekends are often cheaper

2. 🔄 Use Layer-2 – e.g., Arbitrum or Optimism instead of directly on Ethereum

3. 🧼 Use a gas tracker – tools like Etherscan show you the best times

4. đŸȘ™ Use BNB instead of ETH for fees – you save up to 25% on Binance

💡 My personal tip: This is how I save fees with Convert Recurring & BNB!

💬 "I used to pay huge amounts for a swap – today it’s often just cents."

The trick? I use BNB for fees and the new Convert Recurring instead of Auto-Invest. This way, I invest regularly – and save on every transaction.
