Automated fees are charges applied to transactions or services within digital asset systems without direct manual intervention. These charges are typically programmed into smart contracts or protocol rules. They often cover network operational costs, incentivize validators, or fund protocol development. The predetermined nature of these fees ensures transparency and consistency in digital transactions.
Context
The primary discussion around automated fees involves optimizing their structure to maintain network efficiency and user accessibility. High or unpredictable fees can deter participation, particularly during periods of network congestion. Ongoing research focuses on scaling solutions and fee abstraction methods to reduce user burden and enhance the overall experience within decentralized applications.
