#CryptoFees101 it's about deciphering the fees that govern the blockchain! Transaction fees, like 'gas' on Ethereum, vary depending on network congestion: in 2025, the Pectra upgrade reduces staking costs. Bitcoin, on the other hand, sees its fees rise during bull runs. Centralized exchanges charge fees on each trade (generally 0.1 to 0.5%). In DeFi, be cautious of hidden fees like impermanent losses in liquidity pools. Want to optimize your transactions? Choose networks like Solana, which have minimal fees, or wait for off-peak periods. Understanding fees means maximizing your crypto gains! Ready to save?
