Hi,

Can anyone confirm what Transactions fees are that I see in my wallet?  e.g. I send some coins and I'm charged a Transaction Fee of 0.1 for doing so.

Also.. who gets this fee?

Thanks,
Bob

Hey bob Smiley

The fees are added to the block and the miners get them, they are only added if your sending bitcoins comprised of tiny transactions/new. They help get your transaction processed quickly.

Nice one thanks, I had no idea that the miners would get a mini amount whilst mining if they mined my transactions.. I just assumed that only the 25 coin per block was the amount miners got.

If you need more detailed information: http://bitcoinfees.com/

Thanks,  I'll take a look at that Smiley

Cheers guys,
Bob
