For Metabot transactions (manual or auto), a 1% tax applies to buys, sells, and presale snipes. Simple transfers aren't taxed. Here's how fee collection works:

1. **Fee Accumulation**:
   * Metabot doesn't take 1% fees directly from transactions.
   * It tracks how much you owe and collects fees only when they exceed 0.01 ETH/BNB.
2. **Fee Extraction Limits**:
   * Fees taken will always be at least 0.01 ETH/BNB.
   * The maximum fee is capped at 10% of your highest wallet balance.
3. **Fee Calculation Basis**:
   * Fees are accumulated per Telegram account, not per wallet.
   * The bot extracts fees from your wallet with the highest balance.
4. **Silent Processing**:
   * Fee processing is done silently by the sniper.
   * Check your trading volume on a block explorer for verification.
5. **Fee Reset**:
   * All unpaid fees were reset on June 12th, 2023, allowing users to start anew.
