#CryptoFees101 Sending crypto is sometimes like taking a taxi at 8 AM in Paris: you think it will cost €5, you end up paying €48. 😩
On some networks like Solana or Polygon, the fees are so low that you wonder if you actually paid. But on Ethereum on a busy day? You confirm the transaction and feel like you’re funding a trip to space.
Why? Because the more congested the network is, the more it hurts. It's a bit like a highway with unpredictable tolls. And don’t forget: the type of transaction also plays a role (NFTs are not low-cost).
Tip: some clever wallets offer to adjust the fees. Otherwise, sell a kidney to pay for the gas.
