Rate Limiter is a configurable fee slope that can charge fees ranging from the configured base_fee up to 99% fee (MAX_FEE).

Rate Limiter Formula

The rate limiter uses a progressive fee calculation with the following key components: Parameters:
  • reference_amount (x₀): The base reference amount
  • cliff_fee_numerator (c): The base fee rate
  • fee_increment_bps (i): The fee increment in basis points
  • max_limiter_duration: Duration for which the rate limiter is active
The formula depends on the relationship between input_amount and reference_amount: Case 1: input_amount ≤ reference_amount Fee=Input Amount×c\text{Fee} = \text{Input Amount} \times \text{c} Case 2: input_amount > reference_amount First, decompose the excess amount: Input Amount=x0+(a×x0+b)\text{Input Amount} = x_0 + (a \times x_0 + b) where:
  • a: floor division of (Input Amount - x₀) / x₀
  • b: remainder of (Input Amount - x₀) mod x₀
Then calculate fees based on whether we exceed the maximum index: Max Index can be calculated as: Max Index=MAX_FEE_NUMERATOR−cfee_increment_numerator\text{Max Index} = \frac{\text{MAX\_FEE\_NUMERATOR} - c}{\text{fee\_increment\_numerator}} where:
  • fee_increment_numerator = (fee_increment_bps * FEE_DENOMINATOR) / 10_000
If a < max_index
Fee=x0×(c+c×a+i×a×(a+1)/2)+b×(c+i×(a+1))\text{Fee} = x_0 \times (c + c \times a + i \times a \times (a+1) / 2) + b \times (c + i \times (a+1))
If a ≥ max_index
d=a−Max Indexd = a - \text{Max Index}
Fee=x0×(c+c×Max Index+i×Max Index×(Max Index+1)/2)+(d×x0+b)×Max Fee\text{Fee} = x_0 \times (c + c \times \text{Max Index} + i \times \text{Max Index} \times (\text{Max Index}+1) / 2) + (d \times x_0 + b) \times \text{Max Fee}
