What does one Treasury cost onchain?
Estimated gas an issuer pays to auction, launch, allocate, and service one regulated Treasury. The model uses one mid-fee assumption and excludes bond principal, coupon cash, legal work, custody, and offchain KYC.
Launch and operate the bond
This is the gas budget paid by the issuer or its operator. Auction cash, bond proceeds, coupon payments, and maturity principal are not fees.
Issuer operating assumptions
Wallet counts drive gas; the offering's dollar size does not.
Issuer gas breakdown
Measured contract calls and modeled auction operations are labeled separately.

Base estimates include a mid L1 data-security allowance in addition to L2 execution gas.
What bidders and holders pay to transact
These costs are paid by the wallet submitting a bid, redemption, or transfer. The table shows the holder-paid, self-service baseline; an issuer or paying agent can sponsor the payout transactions instead.
Holders do not need to claim every payment themselves
After funding a coupon or maturity payment, the issuer or its paying agent can
call claimFrom(holder, holder) for each account and absorb the gas and
operational overhead. Proceeds are forced to the holder: the operator cannot
redirect them. Coupon payouts need no prior approval because no bond units are
burned; maturity redemption requires the holder to grant the paying agent a
one-time ERC-20 allowance for the units that will be burned.
This matches the familiar brokerage-account experience: coupon cash and maturity proceeds arrive in the account without the investor monitoring every payment date and submitting every claim. Requiring manual claims remains available for self-custody, but it is clearly the worse default user experience. With sponsored payouts, the redemption gas shown below moves from the holder to the issuer or paying-agent operating budget.

Can the network match Treasury trading?
One reported Treasury trade is modeled as one regulated token transfer.
