The network fee varies depending on several factors, including the congestion of the network and the urgency of the transaction. Higher fees can incentivize miners to prioritize certain transactions, ensuring faster confirmation times.

It's important to note that the network fee is not charged by cryptocurrency exchanges or wallets but directly to the sender by the blockchain network.
