DAO Fee Configuration

Overview

The fee configuration model in the RUCCO Partner Launch Program is designed to empower participating projects to create sustainable, self-directed ecosystems.

Each deployment can define its own utility fee—fully configurable by the project team—to support long-term operations, continuous development, contributor incentives, or treasury alignment. This optional usage fee is enforced on-chain and operates independently from any protocol-level parameters.

In addition to this flexibility, all projects include a fixed 0.5% coordination fee, defined through RUCCO DAO governance. This protocol-level fee ensures continued alignment with the RUCCO architecture, supporting ecosystem-wide sustainability, coordination logic, and decentralized growth.

Both fee layers are enforced transparently using Solana’s Token-2022 architecture, with no external contracts or custodial mechanisms involved.


Project-Defined Fee (Optional)

Each project is free to define its own custom usage fee based on its operational model.

Examples of project-defined usage logic may include:

  • Tiered license access models (e.g., monthly access credits, capped free tiers)

  • On-chain service usage metering (e.g., per-action license consumption)

  • Project-specific treasury contributions (e.g., 1–3% additional logic)

The RUCCO 0.5% coordination fee is always applied in parallel, and operates independently from any project-specific configuration.


Fixed Coordination Fee

  • Fee amount: 0.5% of each license transaction

  • Fee destination: RUCCO license acquisition address, as defined by DAO

  • Activation: Automatically applied once the partner deployment is live

  • Irreversible: This parameter is locked at the token configuration level and cannot be modified once initialized

This coordination fee is not a revenue share and does not imply any financial return. Its purpose is strictly technical: to enable shared infrastructure functionality and ensure a consistent routing path for ecosystem growth.


Summary

The RUCCO Partner Launch Program allows each project to define a custom on-chain usage fee, providing a flexible mechanism to support its own operational sustainability, community incentives, and long-term development strategy.

In parallel, every deployment includes a fixed 0.5% coordination fee—a protocol-level parameter approved through DAO governance. This fee ensures technical alignment with the RUCCO architecture and contributes to the integrity, transparency, and continued evolution of the broader ecosystem.

Both fee layers operate independently and transparently through Solana’s Token-2022 infrastructure, without involving any custodial agents or centralized enforcement.
