Revenue and Incentives

Stratos Lab's revenue model and incentive structures are designed to align with user success and foster ecosystem growth:

• Performance Fees: Stratos charges a fee only on earned profits, typically 10%. This aligns incentives, meaning if users don’t earn yield, Stratos doesn’t earn fees, similar to Yearn Vaults. There are no lockup or withdrawal fees, ensuring nearly all gross yield is passed back to users to build trust.

• Social Vault Rewards: Vault strategists (leaders) are compensated from the vault’s profits. A 5–15% profit-sharing scheme is planned, where leaders automatically earn a cut of the net yield when users deposit into their social vault, mirroring Hyperliquid’s ~10% model.20 This incentivizes experts to create effective strategies and attract community capital.

Token Incentives: A portion of the token supply is dedicated to ecosystem rewards. Community members who farm through Stratos or refer others will earn token airdrops and liquidity-mining incentives. These tokens can be staked or used for governance, further aligning the community’s success with the protocol’s growth.
