Protocol Fees

An overview of Quanto's protocol fees.

As outlined in the Tokenomics section, the QTO token follows a deflationary economic model designed to reward contributors, reduce supply over time, and support sustainable ecosystem growth. Platform fees are charged on all trades placed, although these fees are not taken as revenue, but rolled back into the QTO token in perpetuity.

Fee Distribution

All protocol fees generated on Quanto.trade are distributed as follows:

  • 70% Burned: Permanently removed from supply via on-chain burns, directly reducing the circulating supply and enhancing long-term value.

  • 30% Allocated to QLP Rewards: Paid out to QLP stakers in proportion to their contribution, providing consistent incentives for liquidity providers.

This creates a constant flywheel of supply reduction while rewarding those who backstop the protocol’s liquidity. See the burns wallet here.

Fees paid

The base fees on the platform's Quanto Perpetuals are outlined below. The upcoming rewards program will allow users to level up their account and get QTO and SOL rebates on all of their fees paid.
