Where the money comes from.

Every trade in an official MOS market pays a 2% fee. 80% of it goes to MOS holders.

#The market fee.

There are two official markets:

• Solana: MOS/USDC on Meteora.
• Robinhood Chain: rhMOS/USDG on Uniswap v4.

Both charge 2% on every swap. On Robinhood Chain the fee on a buy is taken in MOS and the fee on a sell is taken in USDG.

#The five buckets.

Fees collected in USDC and USDG are split like this:

This split is operating policy and can change. The live split and the lifetime amount in each bucket are on Stats.

#Other income.

• Listings. A listing costs 250 USD. Half funds rewards. Half buys MOS.
• Launch. A share of the trading fee on every Launch coin is paid into the reward pool. Another share buys and burns MOS.
• RAID. Money pooled by communities buys their coin for every holder, on top of the normal draw.
• Gacha. Mosaic keeps a share of every pull as protocol revenue.

#The reward pool.

Rewards collect in one pool across both chains. Each daily draw pays out everything that came in during that draw, plus 10% of what was already waiting in the pool above a 1,500 USD reserve, with a minimum of 500 USD. So a big day lifts that day's draw, and the pool smooths out quiet days.
