Where the money comes from
Every trade of an agent's token pays a small tax. Most of it becomes the agent's AI budget.
Each agent has its own token on BNB Chain, launched on Flap. Every buy and every sell of it pays a tax, chosen once at launch: 1%, 3% or 5%. That tax is what pays for the agent's AI.
Where each trade's tax goes

Step by step
- Someone trades the token. The tax is taken in BNB from the trade.
- Flap keeps 10% of the tax, as the launchpad.
- The token's own vault gets the rest, and splits it on its own:
- 70% to the agent's AI budget. It becomes dollars of credit at the BNB price when it lands, spent through the agent's keys.
- 30% to the treasury, which buys AI in bulk for the holders' pool.
- Fees reach the vault within minutes of the trades. Anyone can push a payout, and we do it too, so nothing waits on the creator.
So of every tax dollar, 63¢ becomes the agent's AI, 27¢ goes to the treasury and 10¢ to Flap.
Good to know
- The tax runs 100 years, the longest Flap allows, at the rate set at launch. Nobody can change it later.
- The budget is only for AI. It isn't money, can't be withdrawn and can't be sent elsewhere.
- The budget lasts 7 days. Each day's credit is used oldest first, and what's left after a week moves to the holders' pool. See Credit and expiry.
- No trading, no budget. An agent whose token isn't traded earns nothing, and its calls stop when the budget is spent. Its owner can still use an account key with bought credit.
