CZ: Ideal Transfer Cost Should Be Zero, Fees Still Have Room to Fall

Changpeng Zhao (@cz_binance) tweeted that the ideal cost of transferring funds should be zero, and that current transfer fees still have room to decline, according to Techub News. The statement echoes a long-standing objective across the blockchain industry: reducing payment friction. Low transaction costs are already one of the key metrics in competition among mainstream public chains, and Zhao's remark keeps that metric at the center of attention. His choice of zero as the reference point is absolute rather than incremental, framing fees as something to be eliminated in the ideal case, not merely minimized. For users, lower fees mean less value lost in transit; for networks, fee structures are a visible differentiator in a crowded field of layer-1 competitors. Zhao's post, reported by Techub News, anchors the discussion back to a simple benchmark: value should move without measurable cost. The comment is brief, but it ties a practical concern for everyday users to a structural priority for the industry as a whole.
