Fees and where money goes
Every direction money can move, named.
There are exactly three directions money moves on Bootpad, and none of them is a transfer to a treasury you cannot see.
| Direction | What | Who controls it |
|---|---|---|
| In | Creator fees from the token | The chain, automatically |
| In | Refuels from anyone | Whoever sends them |
| Out | GPU time for builds | The spend cap in the database |
The spend cap is enforced in the database, not in a status page. A ceiling that is only displayed is a sentence, not a limit.
Warning
Nothing on Bootpad promises a price, a return, or a multiple. A machine that builds something useful is the only outcome the product is designed to produce.
