Crypto fees, often called gas fees on Ethereum or transaction fees on Bitcoin, are payments to miners or validators for processing and confirming transactions on a blockchain. They vary based on network congestion, transaction complexity, and blockchain type. For example, Ethereum’s fees fluctuate with demand, spiking during high activity like NFT minting or DeFi trading. Bitcoin fees depend on transaction size (in bytes) and urgency, with higher fees for faster confirmations.
