The license
The November 7, 2026 operator paper is the current source for these figures. It is provided in briefings. It is not an offer, a forecast, or a guarantee, and these figures are not an invoice.
| Item | Published figure | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Setup | $100,000, one time | Same for Domain and Hub. |
| Annual floor | $250,000 | Credited against JIL's share of collected fees, per the November 7, 2026 operator paper. |
| Hubs, spokes, and annexes | No extra charge | Per the November 7, 2026 operator paper. Annexes are unlimited. |
| Annual support | Varies | Set in the license. |
The toll on each hop
The 5 basis point minimum applies on both. There is no priority tip.
| Inside a domain | Corridor hop between domains | |
|---|---|---|
| Minimum | 5 basis points | 5 basis points of settled gross |
| Rate set by | The domain operator, at or above the minimum | JIL |
| Who pays | The sender named on the quote | The initiating root |
| Split | 25 percent JIL, 25 percent operator, 50 percent lessor | 60 percent JIL, 40 percent lessor. No operator share; the operator is paid through the rate it sets inside its domain. |
| Denied act | No fee settles | The escrow is released and no fee settles |
Worked example: three corridor hops
A settlement of $400,000,000 crosses three JIL corridor hops at the 5 basis point minimum.
| Hop | Settled gross | Fee | JIL | Lessor |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Hop 1 | $400,000,000 | $200,000 | $120,000 | $80,000 |
| Hop 2 | $400,000,000 | $200,000 | $120,000 | $80,000 |
| Hop 3 | $400,000,000 | $200,000 | $120,000 | $80,000 |
| Total | $600,000 | $360,000 | $240,000 |
A leg on another network or payment rail is billed by that rail and is not included. A negotiated per-hop rate for a customer is set in its license; that capability is Designed, and no discount schedule is published.
Inside a domain, a $1,000,000 movement at the 5 basis point minimum is a $500 toll: $125 to JIL, $125 to the operator, and $250 to the lessor.
Economics, stated plainly
A hosted domain is designed to become self-sustaining as paid settled volume grows. That is a design goal reached above a volume threshold, not a timetable. The operator paper's lower-volume five-year case stays negative. The network is funded by licenses and fees, and the design does not print a token to pay for it.
A capacity lease is not published on this site. It is separate from the license, and it is discussed in a briefing. A block holder does not receive a domain's data and does not receive a governance right.
