Fee flow
Where the money from a $CS2RS trade ends up.
The path
Nothing here is automatic on Steam's side. A creator fee arrives onchain, the project converts it, and a person places the buy orders. The chain of custody is short and each step is visible.

The split
Every fee that lands in the war chest is divided the same way. The larger share buys cases. The rest keeps the project running.

What operations covers
Operations is the 10% that never becomes a case. It pays for hosting, the snapshot service, the gas for writing hashes onchain, and Steam's own transaction fees on every purchase. It is reported as one figure so that the gap between fees received and cases bought is always explainable.
