#CryptoFees101 Crypto fees are the costs incurred when transacting in crypto. The main types include trading fees (the costs of buying and selling on exchanges), network fees (blockchain costs, such as gas fees on Ethereum), and withdrawal fees. Trading fees usually take the form of maker and taker fees, which vary between exchanges. Network fees depend on the level of network congestion; high costs can occur when the network is busy. Understanding the fee structure is important so that traders do not unintentionally lose profit. Choosing the right time and platform helps minimize fees and optimize cost efficiency in trading strategies.
