# Traffic Cost Estimates

> Indicative traffic cost estimates for DA Registry workflows. Reward offsets are not included.

This page provides **indicative** traffic cost estimates for all DA Registry actions, including the
Token Standard v1 and v2 workflows. The USD amounts are costs due to traffic and exclude any reward
offsets. Use the estimates to compare the relative traffic generated by each action and workflow
variant.

## Assumptions

* The baseline assumes minimal input holdings, a single required allowlist credential, no blocklist,
  and parties hosted on separate participant nodes. Additional holdings, credentials, or blocklist
  entries may increase the traffic cost.
* V1 allocation estimates assume a free-of-payment (FoP) transfer between a sender and receiver. The
  settler executes it via the `Allocation_ExecuteTransfer` choice (using ActAs rights for both
  parties).
* V2 allocation estimates use the same FoP setup but create two allocations: allocation 1 for the
  sender and allocation 2 for the receiver. The settler executes both atomically via the
  `SettlementFactory_SettleBatch` choice.
* The `Merge` (or self-transfer) estimate is for merging two input holdings into one.
* The `Burn-Mint` estimate assumes one registrar, one owner, one holding burned, and one holding
  minted. The registrar holds ActAs rights for the owner.

## Traffic Cost Breakdown

The USD amounts represent estimated traffic costs at the applied rate of \$60 per MB of traffic
data (before reward offsets). They vary with transaction inputs and setup, including holdings,
credentials, blocklist entries, and participant topology. Each row estimates the traffic cost for
the listed choice.
