# | Community-Driven Revenue Sharing Model Sets It Apart from the Competition

Unlike its competitor, Aurora Foundation introduces a distinctive token-based trading mechanism that mutually benefits its ecosystem’s participants, ensuring a balanced revenue-sharing model that encompasses not just the platform, but also its users and contributors.

At the core of Aurora’s value proposition lies a 2.5% platform fee on token trading, whereby the revenue generated is not merely retained as platform profit. Instead, Aurora champions a revenue-sharing program that aims to further incentivize the onboarding of stellar projects and enhance fundraising capabilities. It's a model where everybody, from the team and curators to private investors and token holders, plays a pivotal role and, importantly, shares in the success.

Here's a breakdown:

* **Revenue Distribution**: Aurora believes in equitable wealth distribution. The net revenue generated from the platform fee is strategically split, with 50% apportioned to the in-house team, curators, and private investors, while the remaining 50% is disbursed among Aurora token holders who actively participate in Liquidity Bootstrapping Pools (LBPs).
* **Token Holder Benefits**: Aurora token holders are not merely investors but are active participants in the platform’s growth and prosperity. By engaging in LBPs, they partake in a mutually beneficial ecosystem where their participation is tangibly rewarded through a share of the platform’s revenue.
* **Two-Year Snapshot**: To illustrate, if Aurora generates $2.5M in two years through its platform fee, $1.25M is reserved for in-house purposes and project development, while the other $1.25M is distributed among Aurora token holders who participate, ensuring that contributors and participants alike share in the platform's financial success.
