Trading Fees

Understand easy.fun trading fees, Hyperliquid base rates, and how Kernel Points reduce your costs.

Trading fees on easy.fun consist of two components

• Hyperliquid Base Fee (set by the HL protocol)

• easy.fun Markup (applied on top of HL fees, reduced by Kernel Points Level)

Hyperliquid Base Fee (HL Protocol)

• Futures: Maker 0.015%, Taker 0.045% (progressively lower at higher HL tiers).

• Fee Tiering: Based on 14-day rolling volume (Spot volume is weighted ×2).

• HYPE Staking Discount: Staking HYPE provides 5%–40% fee discount on HL base fees.

easy.fun Markup

• +1.00% on Spot trades.

• +0.05% on Futures trades.

• Markup is progressively reduced as your Kernel Points Level increases.

Effective Trading Fee

Hyperliquid Base Fee (after tier/discounts) + easy.fun Markup (after Kernel Points reduction)As your trading balance grows, you unlock higher HL tiers (lower base fees) and higher Kernel Points Levels (lower markup + better reward multipliers).

Examples

Example	Trade Size	HL Base Fee	Discount / Adjustment	easy.fun Markup	Total Fee Rate	Estimated Fee
A — Spot Taker(Tier 0, no staking)	$1,000 (SOL/USDC)	0.070% (taker)	None	+1.00%	1.070%	$10.70
B — Futures Maker(20% staking discount)	$50,000 (ETH/USDC)	0.015% (maker)	−20% HL discount → 0.012%	+0.05%	0.062%	$31.00
C — Futures Taker(Tier 0, no staking)	$20,000 (BTC/USDC)	0.045% (taker)	None	+0.05%	0.095%	$19.00

Takeaways

• Spot taker fees are highest due to the +1.00% markup (reduced as Kernel Points increase).

• Futures maker fees can be very competitive when combined with HL staking discounts.

• Futures taker fees remain relatively low compared to Spot taker trades.

How Fees Are Calculated

As your Kernel points balance increases, you unlock higher levels that raise the trading-points multiplier and progressively reduce fees.

Points Multiplier shows how much faster you earn Kernel Points at each level — for example, 2.0x means you earn twice as many points per trade.
