· Definition: The fee for a Bitcoin transaction equals the sum of all inputs minus the sum of all outputs. The difference goes to the miner who includes the transaction in a block.

· Note: Repeatedly using the same Bitcoin address to receive funds can expose your financial activity. Many wallets default to generating a new address for each incoming payment and change.
