[Polymarket Responds to High Fee Controversy: Acknowledges Calculation Error and Fixes It, Abnormal Fees Removed] Odaily Planet Daily News – Prediction market platform Polymarket announced on Discord that, in response to community concerns about excessively high fees in certain categories, a miscalculation occurred during an adjustment intended to optimize the fee curve. The adjustment mistakenly used taker trading volume denominated in USD, which has now been corrected to calculate based on 'number of shares,' a standard industry practice that effectively eliminates fee imbalances. The team stated that in weather and economic markets, the aforementioned calculation error, combined with an additional introduced index, caused severe distortions in the fee curve, particularly in low-price ranges (e.g., $0.001), leading to abnormally high fees. This was the primary reason behind the recent social media controversy over 'super high fees.' The platform has now revised the fee schedule and removed the related index, restoring all market fee structures to normal. Additionally, the team suggested that users sensitive to fees can place limit orders to trade without incurring fees. With the latest update, users can also receive a maker rebate incentive of 20% to 25%.
