At-cost pricing refers to a strategy where goods or services are offered at a price equivalent to their production or operational expenses, without including a profit margin. In the context of digital assets, this might pertain to the cost of minting an NFT or the computational expense of processing a transaction. It aims to cover expenditures rather than generate revenue directly from the specific item.
Context
Certain decentralized autonomous organizations or blockchain services might implement at-cost pricing for specific operations to promote adoption or ensure equitable access. This approach is often debated in terms of its sustainability for long-term project development and its impact on market dynamics. Regulatory scrutiny sometimes addresses whether such pricing accurately reflects underlying value or conceals other revenue streams.
