Fees
Oyrade applies a small trading fee on each prediction. These fees support protocol sustainability, token holder incentives, and long-term ecosystem growth.
Trading Fees
Oyrade distinguishes between Public and Shielded predictions.
| Prediction Type | Fee Rate |
|---|---|
| Public | 0.20% |
| Shielded | 0.30% |
- The additional 0.10% on Shielded predictions supports privacy infrastructure, including encrypted settlement and confidential processing.
- Fees are calculated based on total trade value.
For example, if you place a $100 public prediction, the fee is $0.20. For a $100 shielded prediction, the fee is $0.30.
Where Fees Go
Trading fee revenue is distributed across three allocations:
| Allocation | Percentage | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Stakers | 30% | Distributed weekly in USDC to users who stake $OYRADE |
| Buyback & Burn | 12% | Used to purchase $OYRADE from the open market and remove it from circulation |
| Operations | 58% | Funds development, infrastructure, and growth initiatives |
This structure aligns user activity with long-term protocol sustainability.

Gas Fees (Solana Network Fee)
All transactions require a small amount of SOL to cover network gas.
- Typical prediction transaction cost: ~0.001 SOL
- Recommended minimum wallet balance: 0.05 SOL
- Gas is separate from trading fees
- Required for order placement, modification, and settlement
Keeping sufficient SOL ensures uninterrupted trading activity.
