Regulatory filing links current as of August 24, 2026.

How we price

Protocol Wealth charges either an asset-based fee or a fixed fee. Our annual asset-based fee ranges from 0.25% to 2.00% of assets under management, depending on the services provided, the complexity of the relationship and the size of the account. Clients may instead pay a fixed fee: a monthly retainer of $250 to $10,000 per month for ongoing planning and advisory services, or a project fee agreed in advance. Hybrid arrangements combining a reduced asset-based fee with a fixed planning fee are available where they better reflect the work involved.

Protocol Wealth charges a minimum fee of $300 per month per client relationship. We do not impose a minimum account size. All fees are negotiable and are set out in writing in Exhibit A of your Client Advisory Agreement before the relationship begins. Fees are billed monthly in arrears and are separate from third-party costs such as custodian fees, brokerage and execution costs, fund expense ratios, and blockchain network (gas) fees.

Every fee is set along five dimensions

Time & intensity

Meeting cadence, responsiveness, and how often we monitor.

Capabilities engaged

Planning, discretionary management, digital-asset and onchain operations, and options strategy.

Services breadth

How many of our services and schedules the relationship uses.

Advice complexity

Multi-entity, trust and estate structures, restricted positions, tax coordination, and cross-border considerations.

Technology complexity

Custody architecture, onchain execution, and the tooling needed to manage and report on it.

Fees are set individually per engagement and documented in writing in Exhibit A of your Client Advisory Agreement before the relationship begins. No single client's terms are typical.

Complete and controlling fee information is available in our ADV Part 2A.
