Your crypto balance hides the details. Let AI untangle the fees.

Start with a limited question

Do not begin by asking which crypto to buy. Choose something you can check: what fees did I pay for my last five actions? A text assistant can group information and suggest calculations. There is no need to connect a wallet. You can start with invented data to understand the method first.

The aim is to understand your own usage. Perhaps you make small transfers that each carry a fee. Perhaps a charge is already included in a total. A clear table helps you ask useful follow-up questions. It does not prove that a provider is expensive or predict future prices or savings.

Separate money moved from money spent on fees

Moving €200 between your own wallets does not automatically mean a €200 cost. The transferred amount and the fee belong in separate columns. A lower euro value caused by a market price change is different from a charge you paid. Ask the AI to keep these distinctions visible throughout the table.

A network fee pays for processing on a blockchain. On Ethereum, the computational work is called gas; an executed transaction that fails can still consume gas. A trading platform may also charge its own fees. Record who charged each amount and why, rather than calling every deduction a network fee.

Collect only the information you need

Use your own transaction records and the official fee details. Record the date, action, asset, amount, separate fee, status and source. If a detail is missing, mark it “unknown”. An AI should not invent a missing rate from a convenient round total or from a wallet balance alone.

Keep the complete records yourself. Remove names, account identifiers and unnecessary addresses before sharing information with an assistant. A public wallet address can connect financial activity to your identity. Prefer fictional rows for your first exercise. Never share recovery words, passwords or secret keys. A fee analysis does not need them.

Fictional example: €200 moved is not €200 in fees

Sara prepares an invented overview. Four transfers cost €1.50 each, making €6. Two swaps cost €2 each, making €4. One separate platform fee is €3. The separately charged fees total €13. Another €200 moved between her own wallets; that transferred amount is not included as a fee.

For this exercise, every fee is already expressed in euros using the same valuation method. Real records may contain fees in different assets. Keep them separate if the conversion rate or date is missing. Ask what conversion information is needed instead of allowing the AI to add different currencies without explanation.

Sara also sees the same transfer in her wallet and in a blockchain record. Those are two views of one event. She checks the transaction reference and counts the fee once. A platform total might already include a network charge too. Without checking, her activity could appear more expensive than it really was.

Give the AI a task you can verify

“Create a table from these fictional transactions. Separate transferred amounts from fees. Group fees by type and asset. Flag possible duplicates and missing details. Show each calculation and identify its source row. Do not add information that is absent from the records.” You are asking for traceable work, not a guess.

Then check each row against the originals and a calculator. Is the action count correct? Have refunds and failed attempts been handled properly? A confident answer can still contain mistakes. Leave unclear rows unresolved until you have checked them with the provider or the official transaction details, rather than accepting a convenient explanation.

Use the overview for your next decision

Suppose many fees relate to small transfers. Before another action, you can check its full expected cost and consider whether that action is needed. Never choose a cheaper network blindly: the receiving service must support that network for that asset. A low fee is no benefit if the transfer goes to the wrong place.

The benefit is a clearer overview, less searching and possibly an avoided mistake. Historical fees are not tomorrow’s price list. Keep your own checked table and use the same method for the next overview. AI can prepare the paperwork; you decide what the figures actually mean and what still needs checking.
