#CryptoFees101 Many newcomers wonder why the same action in crypto can cost $0.02, and sometimes — $20. The whole issue lies in the mechanics of crypto fees.

In decentralized networks like Ethereum, users pay 'gas' — this is the fee for computational resources. If you are using DEXs, DeFi protocols, or simply sending tokens — each action has its own 'cost' in the form of gas.

And here the dilemma arises: speed or savings? The more you pay, the faster the transaction will be processed. But always paying the 'maximum' is not beneficial.

Therefore, one must be able to evaluate the market, choose the right time, and understand the calculation mechanism.
