I did a favor for a member and used an exchange to do the transaction as would most people here would do if they do not hold the coins asked for.
So I proceeded in doing the trade for ethereum for the alt coin requested by the member.
After the trade was done and the alt coin sent there were ethereum left in the exchange wallet.
I took a look at the transaction fee they charge so to be able to withdraw the remaining amount.
To my surprise the fee was 0.01eth!
While the other transaction fees for the other alt coin I did was 0.0001 of the total value charged to remove it off the exchange site.
It came out to $0.10-0.15 which was alright.
But over $7 to transfer ethereum out of the wallet?
It was over 60% of what was remaining left to be withdrawn.
I think this exchange had their devs misplace the decimal point when they decided on their transaction fees for being able to move it off their site. It should be 0.001eth so it would be $0.70 and not 10x more.
That is just ridiculous to be charging this much from what all the other exchanges are charging so to withdraw ethereum from these other sites.
Even bitcoins withdrawal fee was less at 0.0005btc which came out to $4.24 at the time of doing the transaction.
Which is a reasonable amount for an exchange to be charging for a bitcoin being sent off site.
