# Trading Fees

The CryptoHealth (CHT) token uses a carefully structured tax system designed to support sustainable development, fund health-related utilities, and reward long-term holders. Taxes are applied to buys, sells, and transfers, with all proceeds directed toward project growth and treasury management.

#### 📉 Current Tax Structure (as of January 2023)

* **Buy Tax – 3%**
  * 1% to Treasury Wallet
  * 1% to Development Wallet
  * 1% to Native Reflections (distributed to holders)
* **Sell Tax – 4%**
  * 2% to Treasury Wallet
  * 1% to Development Wallet
  * 1% to Native Reflections (distributed to holders)
* **Transfer Tax – 1%**
  * 1% to Native Reflections (distributed to holders)

This structure reflects a significant reduction from the original launch taxes of **10% on buys and sells**, and **20% on transfers**. The lowered rates aim to encourage organic trading while maintaining sufficient funding for project operations.

#### 🔁 Reflections & Deflation

Sell taxes contribute to a **deflationary supply** through native reflections. A portion of each sell is redistributed to holders, including the **dead wallet**, which permanently removes tokens from circulation. This mechanism rewards holders passively and gradually reduces the circulating supply over time.

There is **no minimum holding requirement** to receive reflections. All wallets holding CHT are eligible for proportional rewards.

#### 🛠️ Treasury & Development Allocation

Taxes are sent to the **Treasury** and **Development** wallets as **CHT tokens**, rather than converting to BNB. This design minimizes gas fees and keeps transactions efficient. Unlike contracts with auto-liquidity functions, **LP tokens are manually generated** from Development wallet proceeds and added to the pool as needed.
