Stellar native transfer fee is $0.0000020 (p50, 24h). The Stellar base fee is 100 stroops (0.00001 XLM) per operation network-wide, surging only when the ledger fills above its capacity threshold; a native XLM payment is one operation, so the fee sits at a fraction of a cent except during surge windows. Computed from `horizon fee_stats.last_ledger_base_fee` times one operation times live XLM price.
