💰fees & collateral parameters

summary of fees charged by the handle.fi protocol

Introduction

when using any of the services which handle.fi offers it is important to be aware of all the possible, fees, spreads and liquidation parameters.

CDP vaults & collateral

opening up a vault in order to be extended credit incurs fees initially and on a continual basis. it is also important to keep in mind what the min c-Ratio is in order to avoid liquidation. see the borrow section for more information.

minimum amount of debt you may take out at anytime is 100. this applies when you want to repay part of your debt and have less then 100 remaining.

liquidation

all positions which are placed on handle.fi will be liquidated if one of the liquidation triggers are reached. a position will go through the liquidation threshold if either the leverage of the position is above the max. leverage or below the min. collateral.

be aware that your collateral is calculated continuously and is equal to your initial collateral less your losses and fees.

convert fees

initially all fees and system parameters will be set by handle.fi DAO governance. a move to algorithmically controlled fee and parameter mechanisms is planned to be implemented in future protocol upgrades.
