I'm trying to understand why the fee for using a Bitcoin depot is so much higher compared to other transaction methods. It seems excessive and I'm wondering what factors contribute to this cost.

With a large number of miners competing in the pools, the total transaction fee has naturally increased as miners strive to earn a portion of the fees.

Consequently, users of Bitcoin are required to pay this accumulated fee, which is determined by the market demand for miners' services and the complexity of the transaction itself.

The process of completing Bitcoin transactions relies heavily on mining pools, where numerous miners collaborate to validate and confirm transactions.

Each miner within these pools contributes computing power to solve complex mathematical problems, thereby verifying the authenticity of transactions and securing the blockchain.

To incentivize miners to participate in this process, a small fee is attached to each transaction, which is then distributed among the miners based on their contribution.
