[1] $100M * 0.0025 = $250K /day, or almost $91M per year.
- Zephyr314 9y agoThere is currently a 0% fee for "market making," or when you do a limit buy/sell. The 0.3% fee only applies when you make a market transaction (instantly filled) [0]. [0]: https://www.gdax.com/fees/ETH-USD https://www.gdax.com/fees/ETH-USD
- andruby 9y agoOne of the two parties is paying the market-making, the other the market taking fee. So for every transaction, there is always a 0% + 0.3% total commission for Gdax. (note, large customers get a discount on the taker fee, so I went with 0.25% on average)
