# Fees Distribution

In the world of derivatives trading, commissions are the primary source of protocol revenue. On blockchain derivative exchanges, democratization takes center stage as these platforms allow anyone to provide liquidity and participate in revenue sharing. In this section, we will explore how **Storm** enables both liquidity providers and token stakers to actively participate in the evolving protocol economy.

## 🔥 Revenue Distribution

The protocol charges the following trading fees:

* 💰 **Trading Fees** (fees for opening/closing positions)
* 🔁 **Funding**
* ⚠️ **Liquidation Penalties**

All fees contribute to the commission distribution between STORM token stakers and liquidity providers. Specifically:

* **30% of the commission** is allocated to **STORM token stakers**.
* **The remaining 70%** of the commission goes to **liquidity providers**, who help increase market depth.
