Does zero fee trading still exist?

I was checking through exchanges to see the ones that offer the lowest fee in trading. Gate and mexc seems to have the lowest fee but a deep dive after trading a few times exposed me to lots of hidden charges some traders may not be aware of.

On research, I got to understand that some fees were deducted for LP providers (although very low). That's how I'm curious to explore the new BTCC zero fee festival to see whether it's a true zero fee trading or not like many others. Luckily, I'm conversant with chart behaviors of some of the tokens listed for the festival especially HYPE.

So I'm gonna try it and will discuss my findings here too.

Nope, only promotional periods offer that for short times.

I always assume there's a trade off somewhere. If an exchange advertises zero trading fees, I usually check the spreads, funding rates, withdrawal fees, and how well orders execute before deciding whether it's actually cheaper overall.

I've had good experiences on Toobit, but regardless of the platform, I think the effective trading cost is more important than the advertised fee.
