Fees and the YEELD flywheel

Every fee has a defined liability: locker rewards, creator earnings, protocol burns, YEELD-locker rewards, or operations.

Trade fee split

Curve and graduated trades charge the same fixed 1% base fee on the quote leg.

60% of the base fee → launch locker reward capital.
30% of the base fee → protocol revenue.
10% of the base fee → creator reserve.
Optional 0–10% creator tax → creator reserve or locker capital, as selected at launch.

Tax is additive

The optional creator tax never reduces the fixed protocol split. Its destination is immutable for the life of the launch.

Protocol revenue split

70% → TWAP conversion to YEELD and transfer to the dead address.
20% → stock-basket rewards for users locking YEELD.
10% → operations treasury reserve.

Conversions are thresholded, cooldown-bound, and executable permissionlessly. Until execution, assets remain accounted for in dedicated contract reserves.

Conserved accounting

The Fee Router tracks reward capital, creator reserve, YEELD burn reserve, YEELD-locker reserve, and operations reserve separately. Rounding dust stays in the final branch of a split so received assets always correspond to exactly one liability.
