Expense Ratio
AMKT collects a fee from holders using an inflationary mechanism.
AMKT uses a fixed token supply inflation rate to capture an expense ratio.
At launch, the daily inflation rate is set such that the annual reduction in assets backing each AMKT is approximately 95 bps (0.95%). Inflation is calculated in a publicly verifiable manner through the smart contract.
Inflation occurs when index tokens are minted, burned, the inflation fee is changed, or when explicitly called by the owner of the smart contracts. In all cases, the
FeeReceiver
does not decide how many tokens are minted. Rather, the smart contract calculates the amount to be minted based on the time since the last mint. The quantity of tokens sent to the FeeReceiver
is determined by compounding a daily inflation rate a number of times equivalent to the number of days that have passed since the last inflation event. Fees are denominated in AMKT; AMKT inflated new units of the token are sent to the
FeeReceiver
but the value of collateral in the vault remains the same.Last modified 2mo ago
