# Tempo Revenue Methodology

## 1. Overview

Revenue is measured as the portion of fees that a project retains, as determined by its take rate. For Tempo, this metric is currently set to zero. All fees paid by users for transaction execution are distributed to supply-side participants, specifically the network validators. A protocol-level fee switch or base fee burn mechanism has not been activated.

## 2. Data sources

- **None**: This metric is set to a constant value and does not consume blockchain events

## 3. Step-by-step calculation

### Component A: Revenue determination

- **Purpose**: The protocol's share of transaction fees is determined.
- **Logic**: Revenue is calculated as the difference between total fees and supply-side fees. Because 100% of the gas fees collected on the network are allocated to validators, the protocol revenue is hardcoded to zero. The absence of a base fee burn or protocol-level take rate is reflected by this zero value.

Fee revenue retained after supply-side payouts. Before cost of revenue (e.g. L2 DA fees) and before operating expenses.
