![HIP-14: Reduce Trading Fees during Horizon Futures Promotional Period](https://cdn.prod.website-files.com/63327fe96598946091cb28ef/6671d5dc524844f5500ecaf1_latestitem.png)
With the upcoming Horizon Futures mainnet release, this proposal aims to reduce maker fees by up to 1 basis point (bps) and taker fees by up to 2 bps, while subsidizing order execution keeper fees during the Horizon Futures promotional period. This initiative will lower entry barriers for traders, encouraging more activity and exploration of the platform. The promotion will initially cover BTC, ETH, and BNB markets, as well as any new markets launched during this time. By reducing fees, we aim to attract new and existing users, creating a vibrant trading environment and gathering valuable user feedback for continuous improvement.
