fees more than what i am sending

obviously im learning so i have a small amount of eth
when i try to send them to another wallet i see 2 fees.

prv eth

both fee’s are more than what i have in wallet, how is that possible
hence i see your balance is insufficient

Things on the ETH platform use smart contracts to perform transactions, so the fee’s can be quite high.
You can either pay the cost in ETH or PRV. The fee is not in both coins, but whichever one you choose.

BTC can sometimes also have high exit fees.
XMR is by far the cheapest to leave the platform. (and has a lot of liquidity)

I had some ETH I wanted to move, and it was like $90 for the transaction fee (Gas fees were high). I converted all my ETH into XMR and sent it to changelly to turn it back into ETH at the wallet of my choosing. The fee was a little less then 10$ with all the exchanging and price fluctuations.

An important thing to mention here, and has been mentioned in many posts on the same topic already, the ETH fees do not end up in the pockets of the Incognito team, they are paid to the ETH miners.

Incognito’s own fees, performing transactions within the Incognito environment, are very low.
