A network fee pays for block inclusion, but the amount lost between an AUD budget and an AUD cash-out can also include casino charges, hosted-wallet withdrawal fees and exchange-rate spread. Each belongs to a different party and stage.
Open the verified play routeRecord the quoted BTC/AUD rate, explicit exchange commission and the amount of bitcoin that reaches the sending wallet. Compare against a neutral market reference at the same timestamp.
Inspect the wallet transaction before signing. Fee rate and transaction size determine the Bitcoin network fee; it is not a percentage of the casino deposit.
Compare requested and dispatched withdrawal amounts. Label a fixed or percentage deduction as an operator/processor charge unless the transaction itself demonstrates otherwise.
When converting back to AUD, record the receiving amount, exchange trading fee, withdrawal fee and spread. Do not count the same deduction twice.
Use one fixed budget and one hypothetical unchanged BTC price to isolate transaction costs; then show price movement separately rather than presenting volatility as a fee.
| Record | Capture | Decision use |
|---|---|---|
| Buy BTC | Exchange fee and spread | AUD → BTC |
| Send deposit | Miner/network fee | Wallet → casino |
| Receive payout | Casino charge plus miner fee | Casino → wallet |
| Cash out | Trading, spread, bank withdrawal | BTC → AUD |
Wallet fee selection affects confirmation priority when the network is busy. Do not overpay automatically, but do not call a low-priority transfer “stuck” before checking mempool conditions and replace-by-fee support. Fee conditions change quickly, so examples must carry a timestamp and are not promises.
The miner fee belongs to the network transaction; a casino may also add a separate withdrawal charge.
No. Bitcoin transaction size depends mainly on inputs and outputs, not the monetary value sent.
No. Show BTC/AUD price movement separately from explicit fees and spread.
