EOS is free for transaction, is it true?
<a href="https://musing.io/q/seedies/p3gkvc4sx"><b>EOS is free for transaction, is it true?</b></a><p>There are no transaction fees for users, but the fee for RAM, CPU, NET is pretty high, also it's not free to create new account ~ 15 USD per new account. 

Am I missing something?

EOS is free for transaction, is it true?
You are correct. It's pretty much the same way with Steem; you need to buy or get Bandwidth (here rewarded with vesting/Steem Power), which is the equivalent of buying RAM. 

As for an account creation fee; keep in mind that you only need to vest that amount, you do not actually loose it. 

Other than that, transactions on the EOS blockchain are free / does not cost a fee.
