  Absolutely! Just like any other payment method, using bitcoin comes with transaction fees. These fees are necessary to incentivize miners to include your transaction in the blockchain. The fees are calculated based on the size of the transaction in bytes and the current network congestion. So, during times of high demand, the fees may be higher. However, it's worth noting that bitcoin transaction fees are generally lower compared to traditional banking fees for international transfers. So, even with the fees, bitcoin can still be a cost-effective option for cross-border payments.
