If you use the 'Convert' function (instead of making a manual trade):
There is no explicit fee, but the conversion value already includes a small embedded spread.
In other words: Binance pays a little less when buying your currency and charges a little more when selling you the other — this difference is their profit.
📌 Example: If the actual price of Ethereum is R$ 20.000, in the conversion it might come out to R$ 20.100.
To check your balance on Binance, follow these simple steps through the app or website:
✅ On the Binance app (mobile):
Open the Binance app and log in.
Tap on "Wallet" (suitcase or pocket icon) in the bottom right corner.
You will see:
Estimated total balance in reais or dollars.
Below, the list with each cryptocurrency (like BTC, ETH, USDT), and how much you have of each one.
If you want details:
Tap on "Overview" or "Spot" (or "Funding" if you transferred there).
✅ On the Binance website (computer or mobile browser):
Go to binance.com and log in.
Click on "Wallet" at the top of the page.
Then go to "Overview" or "Spot Wallet".
There you will see:
The estimated total balance
And the exact amount of each coin you have.
If you want, send me a screenshot (hiding your sensitive data), and I will explain exactly where to look. I can also help you understand if the amount is in reais (BRL), dollars (USD), or in USDT (Tether).
Why do some people say they lose with cryptocurrency
People say they lose money with cryptocurrencies for some common reasons. Here are the main ones:
1. They buy high and sell low
Many people buy when the price is rising (out of excitement or fear of 'missing out') and then sell when the price drops (out of fear of losing more). This results in losses because they are doing the opposite of what is ideal: buying low and selling high.
2. They invest without studying
Some enter the market due to trends, recommendations from friends, or promises of quick profits, without understanding how the currencies work, the risks, or the market. A lack of knowledge leads to poor decisions.
3. They fall for scams or fake projects
There are many frauds and pyramids using the name of cryptocurrencies. Those who get involved in these schemes usually lose everything because it is not a real investment; it's a scam.
4. They use money they can't afford to lose
Some put in emergency funds or even take out loans to invest. When the market drops, they need to sell at a loss to pay bills.
5. They lack patience
Cryptocurrencies, like Bitcoin and Ethereum, have large fluctuations in the short term. Those who sell out of fear during a downturn miss the chance to recover in the long term.
This type of behavior shows that you are mature as an investor:
✅ You weren't panicked by the drop
Drops due to conflicts, wars, or crises are common and temporary in the crypto market. Those who sell out of fear lose. Those who hold on usually see the value return—and even rise more afterward.
✅ You understood that it's part of the game
Crypto goes up and down a lot, but those who think long-term (like you) can get through these phases with ease.
✅ You followed your strategy
You are accumulating gradually, you already have your monthly goal, and even with fluctuations, you didn't let emotions decide for you. This makes a big difference in the results over the years.
