Understanding and managing crypto fees isn’t exciting — but it’s crucial for keeping more of your gains.
Here are the 3 main types you’ll run into:
🔹 Maker/Taker Fees (Exchanges)
• Maker = lower fees — you add liquidity by placing limit orders
• Taker = higher fees — you remove liquidity with market orders
👉 Pro tip: use limit orders when you’re not in a rush
🔹 Gas Fees (On-chain transactions)
• Paid to miners/validators for processing your transaction
• Can spike during network congestion (especially on Ethereum!)
👉 Use Layer 2s or off-peak hours to save gas
🔹 Withdrawal Fees
• Charged when moving funds off an exchange
👉 Consolidate your withdrawals or use low-fee coins like LTC, TRX, or SOL
