I see that sending Bitcoin costs a huge network fee sometimes, is there a way to lower it? (I'm a huge noob in Bitcoin plz don't hate if this question looks dumb to you).

Whenever possible, use Lightning Network.

I am learning about lightning networks and also found Zeus wallet. The problem is where I live Bitcoin is a very new thing that's why people only demand in Bitcoin address.

Zeus wallet is great but I would not recommend it for total noobs like you.
It will be useful later when you already learned more about how LN works.

You do not have to zap me sats for my answers. Is more than enough if you really read all the material I sent you.
Once you read them all you will understand why I say what I say here on SN.

There's no such thing as a dumb question in bitcoin. Yes, you can use a wallet that enables you to manually set your own fee (known as the fee rate).

The lowest fee rate that you can set is 1 sat/vByte but that is too low to be added to the blockchain right now.

MemPool Space has a simple fee estimator tool right on their home page that you might find helpful. https://mempool.space/

Also, you can lean more about the fee rate here: https://www.whatisbitcoin.com/learn/what-is-the-fee-rate

Personally, I would recommend that you use Sparrow Wallet because it does just about everything that you could possibly want but Electrum is also a very powerful wallet.

Let me know if you need any more help.

Thanks for the information. It is really very helpful for me.

Yes.

  • use batch transactions (putting together multiple txs into single one)
  • use Lightning Network

Remember:

  • Bitcoin onchain is the final settlement, holding, vault, long term stacking. At this level you only have transactions for opening / closing LN channels.
  • Bitcoin Lightning Network is The Payment Network for Bitcoin, at this level you have the payments, not the transactions.
