Revenue

TL;DR

The Vultisig fee system enables plugins to monetize through three fee models:

• per-transaction (charged for each operation)

• subscription (recurring monthly/yearly)

• per-installation (one-time charges)

Fees are collected either immediately or in batches, automatically converted to USDC via DEX aggregators, and distributed with 70% to developers and 30% to the $VULT treasury. The system integrates with the Verifier for TSS-secured automation and maintains transparent revenue tracking.
