A Bitfinex Securities bond example illustrates how a 2% upfront issuer fee applies to a $5 million offering, producing a calculated fee of $100,000 before any other potential costs. The example clarifies the fee structure for issuers evaluating tokenized bond raises on the platform.
KEY POINTS
The stated example applies a flat 2% rate to the gross offering amount. Two percent of $5 million equals $100,000, charged upfront at the point of issuance. This is presented as an illustrative figure for a single bond offering, not a complete fee schedule covering all Bitfinex Securities products or issuance sizes.

Deducting the illustrated $100,000 upfront fee from the $5 million gross offering leaves an issuer with $4,900,000 in preliminary net proceeds. That figure is a simple arithmetic result and does not account for any other expenses an issuer might face, such as legal, custody, or distribution costs, none of which are specified in the example.

Issuers budgeting a tokenized bond raise should treat upfront platform fees as a distinct line item, separate from ongoing servicing or coupon-related costs. The distinction matters because an upfront fee reduces available capital from day one, unlike fees that accrue over the life of the instrument. For context on how digital bond structures are evolving in Asia, Startale Japan recently launched Japan's first digital corporate bond settled in JPYSC, illustrating the range of issuer structures now active across the region.
The confirmed figures in this example are three: the fee percentage (2%), the fee timing (upfront), and the offering size ($5 million). No bond terms, maturity date, coupon rate, investor fee structure, or regulatory approval status are established by this illustration.
Bitfinex Securities operates as a regulated securities exchange in El Salvador, where tokenized bond issuances have drawn attention from issuers seeking capital market access outside traditional venues. Bitfinex's broader market activity, including notable on-chain treasury movements such as 20,000 ETH transferred to Aave and 39,000 BTC leaving exchanges during a late-September rally, reflects the scale at which the broader Bitfinex ecosystem operates. The fee example should be read as a transparent pricing illustration rather than investment advice or a complete cost disclosure.
Issuers considering a Bitfinex Securities offering should request a full fee schedule directly from the platform to account for all potential transaction costs beyond the upfront 2% rate shown here.
