04Method and limits

Each figure is the fee for one BTC withdrawal on the exchange’s default network, read from its public API or official fee page during our daily check. Several exchanges adjust this fee with network congestion, so the value is the one recorded on the check date. Minimum withdrawal amounts are not shown. 4 exchange(s) whose default network we could not read keep their fee in the figures but show no network. 2 exchange(s) disclose no fixed BTC withdrawal fee (Bitstamp, Gemini) and are excluded rather than counted as zero.
