# Distribution Split

The Defi Trading Club does not require a monthly membership fee or any additional payments from members once they purchase their initial tokens. In order to fund the operation, new development, additional pools and member returns, the distributions are equitably split between rewards and growth activity. The distribution split is outlined in the chart below:

**Monthly Distribution Split**

| Member Payout    | 51% | This will be deposited in stablecoin, proportionately in member wallets. If you own 1% of the circulating supply you will receive 1% of this payout. Wallet snapshots will be taken at the beginning and end of the month.  |
| ---------------- | --- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Operations Fund  | 20% | This portion goes to the core team to cover day to day operating costs, expenses and to reward working team members.                                                                                                        |
| Pool Expansion   | 20% | This portion is used to build new investment pools. Each additional pool offers the club investment diversity and perpetual growth opportunity. The club members will always choose what investments new pools will target. |
| Development Fund | 6%  | Defi Trading Club plans to drive innovation and develop various tools that will give our club a competitive trading edge in the crypto space and beyond. Development priorities will be determined by member votes.         |
| DAO Treasury     | 3%  | The treasury will be used for various purposes including managing ongoing liquidity, core team project funding and will be rebalanced as needed.                                                                            |
