Rows marked “Reference” show catalogue width — the size of the listing, not the quality of the exchange — and do not count towards the overall result. The result comes from three substantive criteria: staking rates, average withdrawal fee and network availability.

The table shows the average USDT fee across the same set of networks where both exchanges allow withdrawals and publish a fee. The summary shows the fee on the named network (TRC20 first, then other networks), not the absolute minimum. The cheapest transfer between these exchanges is calculated separately and requires deposits on the receiving side.

The fee is the cheapest network with withdrawals open at each exchange; the networks are named separately below the numbers because they often differ. A dash means “not in our data”, not “unsupported”.

How these two differ

Bybit and Gate.io part ways on the most visible axis — list length. The Yieldo withdrawal fee database has records for 797 coins at Bybit and 2741 at Gate.io, with 579 shared in this sample. This is fee database coverage, not the full trading listings: a missing record does not mean the coin is absent from the exchange. Bybit answers with execution rather than count: it grew out of derivatives, and its strength is the book on major pairs and a mature terminal.

There is also a difference visible only in the data: the share of networks closed for withdrawal right now. On Bybit it is 18.8%, on Gate.io 22.9%. A wide matrix almost always means more pauses: more exotic chains, one of them under maintenance.

Verification is mandatory on both, so the entry bar is the same — the choice comes down to whether you trade a dozen pairs or hunt one rare token.

A route requires open withdrawals at the sender and deposits at the receiver on the same network and in the same token form. Selection requires a known fee and a withdrawal minimum compatible with 1,000 USDT. The fee shown is the sender withdrawal fee; verify the terms at both exchanges before transferring.

The transfer goes straight over the blockchain: the sender pays, the deposit is free.

A change means the value moved between samples, not the sample itself: polling records the rate regularly, and without that collapse "changes" would simply equal the number of readings.

Each row compares one coin on one shared network; fees are in units of that coin. BTC includes only Bitcoin and the separate SegWit option; BTC representations on BSC, X Layer and other chains are excluded. The network and token form must match the receiving address details. Open withdrawals do not guarantee open deposits.
