Why These Fees?

Free Minting

Zero mint fees encourage users to deposit NFTs, increasing vault liquidity. More liquidity means:

  • Better price discovery
  • Deeper DEX pools
  • More DeFi integrations

Free Random Redeem

Random redeems are free because you have no control over which NFT you receive. This enables efficient floor-price arbitrage:

  1. Buy vTokens below floor price on DEX
  2. Random redeem for NFT
  3. Sell NFT at floor price
  4. Profit keeps DEX price anchored to floor

5% Targeted Redeem

The targeted redeem fee compensates for option value. When you choose a specific NFT:

  • You're exercising the option to acquire that specific piece
  • Rare NFTs have value above floor
  • Fee captures some of this premium

Fee Changes

Fees are configured at the factory level and can be verified on-chain:

cast call $FACTORY "factoryTargetRedeemFee()" --rpc-url $RPC
# Returns: 50000000000000000 (0.05 ether = 5%)

Once factory ownership is renounced, fees become permanently immutable.
