# Protocol fees Our protocol charges a 10% fee (currently reduced to 5% during the promotion) on the profit of depositors. 20% of that fee will be shared through the referral rebate mechanism. We charge a 0% trading fee for makers. When creating a bot or using our strategies, all users will act as makers. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
