Many free products make their money from your data or from ads. Here is exactly why WatchCrypto is free, and where its revenue comes from.
When you trade through the terminal, your orders carry a builder fee that you approve explicitly, on-chain, before your first trade — 0.01% on Hyperliquid and on Bulk, which is $1 on a $10,000 trade. That fee is WatchCrypto's revenue, and it's the only revenue.
An approval you sign today allows at most 0.01% on either venue, the same as the fee, and no order can carry a higher fee than the maximum you approved. Until 26 October 2026 the fee was 0.1% on Hyperliquid and 0.15% on Bulk. If you approved it before then, your approval still allows up to those amounts, but the orders the terminal sends now carry 0.01%.
A terminal is only useful if it's open all day. Subscription paywalls push casual users away before the product can prove itself, and tiered plans mean deliberately limiting the free version, as TradingView does by capping how many indicators and alerts you can use. We'd rather give everyone the whole terminal and earn only when it's actually being used to trade.
It also means our interest matches yours: WatchCrypto makes money only when the terminal is good enough that you choose to trade from it.
The business model above is the business model — revenue does not come from your data. For the specifics of what we collect and how it's handled, read the privacy policy.
