Fees

The builder fee, where every basis point goes, and the rest of the cost picture.

Agonaut’s only fee is a small builder fee on your trading volume. Hyperliquid’s own trading fees apply separately, the same as trading on Hyperliquid directly.

The builder fee

Rate	0.030% of notional volume
Charged	At fill time, by Hyperliquid
Approved	Once, as a cap, when you activate trading

You approve the cap up front (see Activate). You are only ever charged on real trades.

Where the fee goes

The builder fee is the engine behind every reward on Agonaut. The large majority flows straight back to the community:

Community

The majority of the fee funds competition prizes and referral payouts, back to traders in USDC.

Platform

The remainder keeps Agonaut running: infrastructure, development, and operations.

The split is deliberately generous to the community. There is no token to prop up, so the fee can do its real job: reward the traders who make the arena.

Other costs

• Hyperliquid trading fees apply as normal, separate from the builder fee.
• Withdrawals carry a flat 1 USDC fee, taken by Hyperliquid.
• Deposits are just transfers, aside from a small one time activation on a brand new Hyperliquid account.
