Avantis fees & measured trading cost

DEX−15% fee via our link

Avantis does not use a conventional order book: it settles futures trades against an oracle price. FeeFloor therefore doesn’t calculate order-book spread or slippage for it and reports the protocol cost components its current model supports. FeeFloor measures Avantis's futures market on BTC, ETH, SOL and XRP, live against every venue we track, and a $100K BTC futures order currently reports $38.25 in those components. Funding, borrowing, price-impact and withdrawal costs sit outside that figure and aren’t included here.

Not calculated — this venue settles against an oracle, not an order book, so FeeFloor doesn’t compute book slippage here. Any price-impact term is part of the protocol model, not shown as slippage.

What our measurements show

Avantis's rank moves with trade size: #5 of 49 at $1M, but #22 at $10M. Fees are flat — depth is not.

At $100K, Avantis executes 26% cheaper than the median venue we track (3.82 bps vs 5.18 bps).

Pricing comes from an oracle rather than an order book, so FeeFloor reports the 3.82 bps protocol fee and doesn't compute book spread or slippage — the order-book components other venues carry don't apply here. Funding, borrowing and any price-impact terms are separate.

Signing up through our link takes 15% off the fee component — the discount is applied in every number above, and the struck-through figures show list price.

Cost by trade size

Fees are flat, but spread and slippage scale with size — so a venue that wins at $10K can be mid-pack at $10M. BTC futures, taker.

Avantis: quick answers

What does a $100K BTC trade actually cost on Avantis?

As of 2 August 2026, a $100K BTC futures market order on Avantis costs $38.25 all-in (3.82 bps): 3.82 bps fee, 0.00 bps spread and 0.00 bps slippage. That ranks #6 of 49 venues we measure.

Is Avantis better for small or large orders?

Right now, small orders: Avantis ranks #12 at $10K and #22 at $10M. Fees are flat percentages, but slippage grows with size, so the answer shifts with the venue's live order-book depth.

Does Avantis have hidden costs beyond the trading fee?
