Network fee
The fee paid to a blockchain's validators or miners to process a transaction, separate from any casino fee.
Every blockchain transaction pays a network fee. On Bitcoin it goes to miners; on Ethereum it is called gas and is paid in ETH; on Tron it may be covered by bandwidth or energy or paid by burning TRX. The fee depends on the network and on how busy it is, not on the amount sent.
Why it matters
Network fees decide how quickly a transaction confirms and how worthwhile small withdrawals are. A $20 withdrawal on a congested network can lose a noticeable share to fees.
Network fee versus casino fee
Casinos often charge a fixed withdrawal fee per coin. It may be close to the actual network fee or well above it. Our payout tests record the fee the casino charged, and the network fee is visible on a block explorer, so the two can be compared.
Worked example
You withdraw 0.002 BTC. The casino charges 0.0002 BTC as a withdrawal fee. The explorer shows the network fee on the actual transaction was much lower. The difference is effectively a casino fee.
