Questions
- Why does the SOL fee on BNB Smart Chain change?
- The on-chain figure is a USDT transfer ≈ 55,000 gas × current gas price, read from BSC public RPC eth_gasPrice. It moves for two reasons: the network's fee market (gas, energy or priority price) rises and falls with demand, and the USD figure follows the BNB price ($773 when this page was built). We re-read both every 90 seconds and never fill a gap with an old number.
- What is the minimum SOL withdrawal on BEP-20?
- Right now: Binance 0.00038 SOL. Below the minimum the exchange refuses the withdrawal; at or just above it the flat fee is a large share of what arrives ($0.023 of a 0.00038 SOL withdrawal at Binance).
- Is BNB Smart Chain the cheapest network to send SOL right now?
- Yes, by total cost (cheapest exchange withdrawal plus on-chain fee) among the 2 SOL rails with a reading: $0.025 here against $0.121 on Solana next.
