SimpleSwap Fee Trick That Saved Me Money

SimpleSwap Fee Trick

i do about 10 crypto swaps per month. mostly BTC to XMR.

for months i was accepting whatever fee SimpleSwap showed me. then i started paying attention.

floating vs fixed rate

fixed rates have a higher markup. typically 1-2% more than floating.

on a $500 swap:

  • fixed rate: lose about $8-10
  • floating rate: lose about $3-5

over 10 swaps per month, thats $30-50 difference.

the other trick: timing

swaps are cheaper on weekends. sunday evenings have 30-40% lower network fees.
