Free + sustained by a small optional fee
This MCP is free and open-source. You can install it, run it, and trade through it without paying anyone.
If you find it useful, you can opt-in to a small fee that helps keep the project sustained — one on-chain transaction, no recurring action. The fee is 1 bp maker (0.01%) / 2 bps taker (0.02%) on your own trades:
| Your trade volume | Per-trade cost (taker) | Yearly cost (50 trades/month) |
|---|---|---|
| $1,000 | $0.20 | ~$120 |
| $100 | $0.02 | ~$12 |
| $50 (lighter sub-account default) | $0.01 | ~$6 |
