Start a drop ← All formats

At deploy

Storage fee

Free under 5 MB, $0.05/MB above with a $0.50 minimum.

Creator, once at deploy

Per mint

$0.25

Flat platform fee added to each mint transaction.

Collector, on each mint

On secondary

Creators keep 100% of every resale on the artsunami marketplace, minus their own EIP-2981 royalty.

Settled out of the resale

EIP-2981 royalty (separate from the fees above)

On top of the table above, you set your own royalty rate at deploy (capped at 10%). Every honest marketplace - including artsunami - pays it directly to your wallet on every resale. The royalty is never withheld by artsunami: the contract sends it to you in the same transaction as the seller payout.

Specific to drop

Cost breakdown for this format

Estimated mainnet gas

One-time cost paid to Ethereum at deploy. artsunami takes nothing on top.

~$30-50

Typical storage footprint
One artwork file plus one contract-level metadata JSON. Usually well under the 5 MB free allowance unless you ship 4K animations.
Resulting storage fee
Almost always free. Larger video or GLB drops above 5 MB pay $0.50-1.00.

Format quirks

+Two-phase Collect: allowlist window then public Collect.
+Merkle root for the allowlist is computed locally - artsunami never sees the wallet list.
+Per-wallet cap to defang gas-war bots and snipers.
+Gas is higher than a vanilla mint because the allowlist proof check adds ~30k gas per claim.
