Monero native transfer fee is $0.0617 (p50, 24h). Monero uses RingCT transactions with a dynamic block-size penalty: a 1-input 2-output transfer is roughly 1500 bytes, and the per-byte rate from `get_fee_estimate` rises sharply when miners are filling blocks above the median size. The fee covers both anonymity-set inflation and ring-signature footprint, which is why XMR fees sit above most L1s. Computed via the daemon's three-tier `get_fee_estimate` times 1500 bytes times XMR price.
