**Are transaction fees holding you back on the BitShares network?** A creative and efficient solution has been making waves in the crypto community, and it involves **Skycoin (SKY)**, **NESS**, and their innovative time-based tokens: **SCH (Skycoin Hours)** and **NCH (NESS Coin Hours)**. This strategy, recently highlighted in the XBTS Telegram group, offers a practical way to manage your fees and keep trading on BitShares smooth and cost-effective.

#### **The Challenge of BTS Fees**

BitShares (BTS) powers the transactions on the network, and like any blockchain, fees are necessary to execute trades, transfers, and other operations. As the network grows, managing a steady supply of BTS to cover these fees is crucial for active traders and enthusiasts.

#### **The Clever Solution: SCH and NCH**

For holders of **Skycoin (SKY)** or **NESS**, there’s an ingenious way to generate BTS without constantly buying it:

1. **Generate SCH (Skycoin Hours) and NCH (NESS Coin Hours)** by holding **SKY** or **NESS** in their official wallets.  
   - **Skycoin Wallet Download**: [Download Here](https://www.skycoin.com/downloads/).

2. **Sell SCH or NCH for BTS** on the XBTS decentralized exchange.  
   - **SCH/BTS Market**: [Trade SCH/BTS on XBTS](https://ex.xbts.io/market/XBTSX.SCH_BTS).

3. **Use the BTS you earn to pay transaction fees** on the BitShares network.

#### **Step-by-Step Guide**

1. **Hold SKY or NESS** in their official wallets to accumulate SCH or NCH automatically.  
   - The longer you hold, the more you earn — it’s like a passive reward system!

2. **Send your SCH or NCH to XBTS** using the wallet’s **“Advanced Send”** feature. This ensures your tokens arrive safely and are ready for trading.

3. **Sell SCH/NCH for BTS** on XBTS.  
   - This helps you secure BTS for your trading fees without dipping into your main funds. Plus, you contribute to the liquidity of the exchange by filling order books.

4. **Pay your transaction fees** with the BTS you’ve earned and keep your trading journey on BitShares seamless.

#### **Why This Matters**

- **Cost-Efficient**: You’re using a passive resource to manage your fees — no need for frequent BTS purchases.
- **Improves Liquidity**: By selling SCH/NCH, you help reduce spreads and improve trading conditions on XBTS.
- **Innovative**: This method highlights the power of **cross-community collaboration** between BitShares, Skycoin, and NESS.

#### **Strategic Tip**  
The advice from the community? **Hold onto your SKY or NESS during bear markets**. Instead, sell the SCH or NCH you generate. This way, you keep your primary assets intact while making the most of your rewards.
