Some people are wrongfully advertising Bitget on this forum. This is it:

Trading fees have a direct impact on profitability, particularly for active crypto traders. In 2025, major exchanges such as Coinbase, Bitget, Binance, Kraken, and Bitfinex continue to compete by offering different pricing structures for both spot and futures markets. Understanding how these fees work allows traders to choose a more cost-efficient platform.

What Are Crypto Trading Fees and How Do They Work?

Most crypto exchanges follow a maker–taker fee model. Maker fees are charged when traders place limit orders that add liquidity to the order book, while taker fees apply when orders remove liquidity, usually through market orders. Many platforms reduce fees for high-volume traders or for users who pay fees using native exchange tokens.

 What Other Fees Should Traders Watch For?

Beyond trading fees, users may encounter deposit and withdrawal fees that vary depending on the payment method and blockchain network. Additional costs can include spreads on instant buy features, funding fees for leveraged trading, and liquidation fees during periods of high volatility.

Which Exchanges Have the Lowest Spot Trading Fees?

For spot trading, Bitget and Binance offer some of the lowest standard rates, charging 0.10 percent for both maker and taker orders. Coinbase, on the other hand, remains one of the more expensive platforms, with taker fees reaching up to 0.60 percent.

 Which Platforms Offer the Best Futures Trading Rates?

In the futures market, Binance generally provides the lowest fees, starting at 0.02 percent for maker orders and 0.04 percent for taker orders. Bitget and Kraken remain competitive alternatives with slightly higher but still affordable rates.

Are Low Fees the Only Factor to Consider?

While low fees are important, traders should also consider security, regulatory compliance, liquidity, asset selection, platform usability, and customer support when choosing an exchange.

How Should Traders Choose the Right Exchange?

The ideal exchange balances low costs with reliability and strong features. In 2025, traders who evaluate both fees and overall platform quality are more likely to achieve long-term success.

Why is a thread like this locked if not for a selfish reason. It is full of wrong Bitget promotional post, although some other exchanges are mentioned but this is most common to people mentioning Bitget.

Which exchanges is charging deposit fee? Such exchange should be completely avoided.

The lowest trading fee is still Mexc. This is according to all the exchanges that I have used but the exchange increased its fee months ago but still lower than the fee on Bitget and Binance.

In the futures market, Binance generally provides the lowest fees, starting at 0.02 percent for maker orders and 0.04 percent for taker orders. Bitget and Kraken remain competitive alternatives with slightly higher but still affordable rates.

This is not true, Binance fee is 0.05% for takers. But if you want the fee to be deducted in BNB the taker fee is 0.04% and 0.018% for market makers.

typical from a bitget shill account, they been doing this shit for years now on the forum.
they try to do it in a way that won't get their posts deleted for spam, but anyone with more than two brain cells can see thru it.
this account specifically, 6 out of his last 20 posts are shilling for bitget.

i reported the topic for spam, but it's kinda pointless, cause they would just make another one a few days later.

What do you expect from someone who generates posts using AI ? Certainly, much of the information they provide may be outdated or inaccurate. They might even post their topic and then lock it to avoid any discussions or criticism they could face. This is unacceptable behavior and negative promotion that harms the exchange they are promoting more than it helps it.

Personally, I don't care about these shills, as there are many of them in the forum. So, I simply ignore their topics and add them to my ignore list, and I hope other members do the same. These people don't contribute nothing useful to the community other than their own personal and financial interests.

If the goal is to point out to the shill which parts he/she got them wrong, I don't think it's that useful. It might be pointless. They're paid shills. There's no reason why they deal with the facts. Although it's good that somebody points them out for the sake of others, this won't easily stop. They're paid to promote an exchange. Whether it's done in a misleading or wrong way, it apparently doesn't matter.

Also, most promoters in this board are lying, like them. Services here are being promoted as privacy-focused, anonymous, non-KYC, decentralized, instant, cheap, and so on and so forth even if they're not.
