#CryptoFees101 Understanding crypto fees is essential for efficient trading. On platforms like Binance, there are maker and taker fees. A maker adds liquidity (placing a limit order), while a taker removes liquidity (using a market order). Generally, maker fees are lower. Also, each coin transfer incurs network fees—for example, sending $ETH costs more during network congestion. You can reduce trading fees by holding $BNB and enabling BNB fee discounts. Many traders forget to include fees in their profit/loss calculations, which can mislead their performance review. Always check the fee tier you fall under, especially if you're a high-volume trader. Every satoshi saved adds up.
