Protocol Fee Model

Rips operates with a simple, transparent onchain model that aligns product usage with platform sustainability. Every action in the app, whether opening a pack, claiming coins, or swapping assets, contributes to the ecosystem in measurable, verifiable ways.

What these mean

• LP Fees (Post TGE): Trades in the primary $RIPS liquidity pool on Clanker include a dynamic 1%–3% protocol fee, consistent with Clanker’s standard launch configuration.

• Swap Fees: All in-app swaps are subject to a 1-2% fee.

• Pack Sales: All direct sales of packs in USDC.

• Coin Acquisition: Currently ~90% of pack revenue goes toward purchasing tokens for packs. All token acquisitions are onchain and fully transparent for anyone to verify. As RIPS expands, this cost should decline as more projects seek exposure through RIPS, leading to better pricing, direct token contributions, and improved acquisition efficiency.

• Operations: Operational costs associated with running Rips.

• Staking Rebates: USDC paid directly to those staking $RIPS.

• Treasury: Funds going to treasury will go towards community initiatives and token buy backs.
