Transaction fees for coin exchanges on Yellow Card.

Transaction fees play a crucial role in the processing of transactions on the blockchain. In this article, we'll explore the factors that contribute to transaction fees, why they may be relatively high, and how users can navigate and understand these costs.

Why Transaction Fees Exist:

Cryptocurrency transactions involve using blockchain networks, which require resources for validation and processing. Transaction fees are essential to compensate miners and network validators who secure and maintain the integrity of the blockchain.

Factors Influencing Transaction Fees:

1. Network Congestion:

High demand for transactions can lead to network congestion, causing transaction fees to increase. During peak times, the number of pending transactions may surpass the network's capacity, resulting in higher fees to prioritize transactions.

2. Blockchain Network Used:

Different blockchain networks have varying transaction fee structures. The choice of blockchain for a particular coin can influence transaction costs. For example, the Ethereum network often experiences higher fees due to its popularity and congestion.

3. Market Dynamics

Market conditions, such as volatility and demand, can impact transaction fees. During periods of high market activity, transaction fees might rise as users compete for transaction processing priority.
