It depends on the trading amount and if you are maker or taker. Makers pay 0.05 in trading fees and, takers 0.35%. You can buy a small amount of BSQ (under 50BSQ) at [Keybase](https://keybase.io/team/bisq) #buy-bsq channel or bigger amounts at Bisq. [Buying BSQ - Bisq Wiki](https://bisq.wiki/Buy_BSQ) ---
