[Polymarket Responds to Community Concerns About High Fees: Controversial Parameters Removed, Taker Fees Still Applied Across All Categories] BlockBeats News, April 1 — The Polymarket team announced on Discord that in response to previous community concerns about high fees in certain categories, the team’s original intention was to adjust the fee curve. However, they mistakenly used USD taker trading volume as the basis. This has now been changed to calculation based on the number of shares, which is the industry standard and can address the issue of fee imbalance. The team stated that in certain markets (particularly weather and economic markets), due to this adjustment and the additional indices applied exclusively to these two categories, the fee curve became severely distorted. When prices were low (e.g., 0.1¢), fees were abnormally high. This was the reason behind the "super high fees" complaints on social media. The fee schedule has now been revised, the indices have been removed, and this issue no longer exists in any market. "The fees for these markets remain the lowest and most cost-effective on the internet." At the same time, the team suggested that if users are concerned about fees, they can place limit orders to trade for free. Additionally, with the new update, users can earn a 20-25% maker rebate.
