    One way to transfer bitcoin to a wallet without paying high transaction fees is to use a SegWit-enabled wallet. SegWit (Segregated Witness) is a protocol upgrade that reduces the size of bitcoin transactions, resulting in lower fees. By using a SegWit wallet, you can take advantage of the lower fees and save money on your transfers. Many popular wallets, such as Electrum and Ledger, support SegWit. Make sure to check if your wallet is SegWit-enabled before transferring your bitcoin.

    Another option is to wait for periods of low network congestion to transfer your bitcoin. Bitcoin transaction fees are determined by the demand for block space on the network. During times of high demand, fees can be quite high. However, during periods of low demand, fees tend to be lower. By monitoring the network congestion and transferring your bitcoin during low-demand periods, you can minimize your transaction fees. Websites like mempool.space provide real-time information on network congestion and fee levels.
