to protect the Ripple Consensus Ledger from being disrupted by spam and denial-of-service attacks, each transaction must destroy a small amount of XRP. This transaction cost is designed to increase along with the load on the network, making it very expensive to deliberately or inadvertently overload the network.

Every transaction must specify how much XRP to destroy to pay the transaction cost.

Current Transaction Cost

-

The current transaction cost required by the network for a standard transaction is typically 0.01 XRP (10,000 drops), after load scaling. It sometimes increases due to higher than usual load.

+

The current minimum transaction cost required by the network for a standard transaction is 0.00001 XRP (10 drops). It sometimes increases due to higher than usual load.

You can also query rippled for the current transaction cost.

Special Transaction Costs

Some transactions have different transaction costs:
