Proposal: Custom Taker Fee on Stable to Stable Trades On Ethereum - USDS, USDe, PYUSD, USDG, RLUSD, GHO

To be posted to Snapshot on 2026-06-07T14:00:00Z

TL;DR:

Previous proposals have been brought up to the Bancor DAO that set a 0.001% (1/10th of a basis point) fee on stable to stable trades for certain trading pairs.

This proposal is looking to expand on these previous proposals by setting a lower fee on the following:

USDS/USDT
USDS/USDC
USDS/DAI

USDe/USDT
USDe/USDC
USDe/USDS

PYUSD/USDT
PYUSD/USDC
PYUSD/USDS

USDG/USDT
USDG/USDC
USDG/USDS

RLUSD/USDT
RLUSD/USDC
RLUSD/USDS

GHO/USDT
GHO/USDC
GHO/USDS

trading pairs on the Carbon DeFi deployment on Ethereum.

Overview:

The default taker fee on Carbon DeFi Ethereum deployment is 0.2% which means that anyone taking an order from the protocol has to pay this amount. Previous proposals:

https://gov.bancor.network/t/proposal-expand-custom-taker-fee-on-stable-to-stable-trades/4540

have been brought up to the Bancor DAO to lower this fee to 0.001% on stable to stable trades for certain trading pairs in order to make Carbon DeFi more competitive with stable to stable swaps that are normally lower across all DEXs.

This proposal is seeking to expand the custom taker fee to these other stable pairs.
