Hey @Solomonsatoshi - thanks for sharing your insights and concern regarding the fees.
@Team_Predyx did an awesome job in explaining the nuances. However I thought it would be nice to clarify few more things:
  1. So far Predyx is not making profits from the fees collected. 100% of our markets run at a loss.
  2. Fees collected are deposited to the market wallet. When Predyx official team or any Creator creates a market, they need to provide the initial capital to provision the initial liquidity. In other words the "initial capital" means worst case loss (WCL) for the market creator. Thus the fees collected go directly into market wallet to offset the loss of the market creator. This how most of AMM (Automated market maker) works.
  3. The default fees for creating a market on Predyx is: 0.45% buy, 0.35% sell and 0.20% win + 1 sats fixed fee per transaction. However the creator can choose to set their own fees. They may choose to offer reduced fees or higher fees. The max fee cap is set to 5%.
There are some creators who choose to offer very minimal fee as low as 0.10% such as @BlokchainB, while there are other creators who choose to offer high fees of 4%.
Thus - it's in best interest of the trader to first check the market fees. And then decide to trade if you agree with the fees.
