#CryptoFees101

Understanding crypto fees is essential for every investor. These aren't just exchange charges; they also include network fees (often called "gas fees" on Ethereum), which pay miners or validators for processing transactions. Fees fluctuate based on network congestion and transaction complexity. Higher demand for block space means higher fees for faster confirmation.

To reduce costs:

* Choose exchanges with competitive fee structures.

* Utilize native exchange tokens for fee discounts.

* Consolidate smaller transactions into larger ones.

* Use limit orders instead of market orders.

* Time your transactions for off-peak network hours.

* Explore layer-2 solutions if available for your chosen cryptocurrency.
