How to calculate the cost of cryptocurrency transaction fees?

The cost of a cryptocurrency transaction fee can be calculated using the following formula:

Transaction Fee Amount:

§§ \text{Fee Amount} = \frac{\text{Transaction Amount} \times \text{Transaction Fee Percentage}}{100} §§

where:

  • § \text{Fee Amount} § — the amount charged as a transaction fee
  • § \text{Transaction Amount} § — the total amount of the cryptocurrency transaction
  • § \text{Transaction Fee Percentage} § — the percentage fee charged for the transaction

Total Cost of the Transaction:

§§ \text{Total Cost} = \text{Transaction Amount} + \text{Fee Amount} §§

This formula allows you to determine the total cost of a cryptocurrency transaction, including the fee.

Example:

  • Transaction Amount (§ \text{Transaction Amount} §): $100
  • Transaction Fee Percentage (§ \text{Transaction Fee Percentage} §): 2%

Calculating the fee amount:

§§ \text{Fee Amount} = \frac{100 \times 2}{100} = 2 \text{ USD} §§

Calculating the total cost:

§§ \text{Total Cost} = 100 + 2 = 102 \text{ USD} §§
