Why do network fees exist?
Processing a transaction uses resources on its network.
The short version
A network fee pays for that work. Fees and how they are calculated differ across networks and can change with demand.
A closer look
Blockchain networks are run by many independent computers. A network fee rewards them for including your transaction, and it also keeps the network from being flooded with spam.
Fees are paid in the network’s own asset, such as ETH on Ethereum or TRX on Tron, and they are not the same on every network. They also rise and fall with demand: when many people transact at once, a faster transaction usually costs more.
A failed or cancelled transaction can still use up a fee, so it pays to double-check the amount, the network and the address before you confirm.
Worth remembering
A network fee is not necessarily a wallet-provider fee. Review the amount shown by your wallet before proceeding.
