Twain Discovers Trading Fees in Cryptocurrency Markets 😂🔥

by

Once upon a fine day in the season of blooming innovation, Mr. Polymarket, a most enterprising platform specializing in those peculiar contraptions known as prediction markets, found itself compelled to part wisdom- and- might I add- a measly sliver of its profits- by introducing what they call “trading fees.” 🍁📈

  • Lo and behold, our goodly Polymarket decided to part ways with their so-called generous zero-fee escapade in its blockchain escapades and rather cheeky US app. Much hullabaloo ensued, heralding this welcome shift into myopic capitalism.
  • According to the prophets of finance, a gentle tap of 1 basis point (a mere 0.01%! 🎩), will be extracted from the teeming masses now freelancing as takers on this Polymarket US contraption. Yes, even those spirited 15-minute crypto markets shall gloat over newfound fees. Pray tell, where art the free-market angels now?
  • This insinuation of financial tact establishes Polymarket’s inaugural and undoubtedly grandiloquent source of revenue ever since it ventured gallantly into the mainstream arenas with its oh-so-ravishing US app- yet it remains snugly in beta condition, so no jostling yet in the public eye. 🤝

Our dear Polymarket, self-styled as the titanic behemoth of decentralized prophecy, had heretofore sailed feeless seas. Now, with a flourish and much fanfare, the platform asserts its venture into monetary waters by introducing a delicate scheduling of fees to the Polymarket US app, to be savored by few in its private beta sabbath; and do look upon their newfound structure on those swift 15-minute ventures into the crypto forests.

Let it be etched in the annals of this digital barter that the company, with all the glee of a tax collector, shall extract 1 basis point for the honor of a transaction on said Polymarket US app. What a remarkable epoch where even predictions have a price tag! 📊

In times past, Polymarket roamed as a sterling exemplar of the zero-fee model across its entire market stage. Yet, as the sun settles behind today’s daring ventures, we see the dawning of this new fiscal epoch.
