V1 /V1.5 Contract Balance
We strongly encourage traders who still have tokens in the legacy V1 and V1.5 Switcheo Exchange smart contracts to withdraw their remaining tokens as soon as possible.
This is as the topic of implementing minimum transaction fees on the NEO blockchain has been in discussion by core developers. In such an event, withdrawals from legacy contracts may be delayed.
Furthermore, our upcoming interface for Callisto will not support legacy contracts, and users will have to access our separate web page to withdraw their tokens.
Withdrawing tokens before the above two events occur will ensure that your experience remains frustration-free.
Please refer to the guide below for instructions to withdraw your tokens from MainNet V1 and V1.5:

Trading Fee Update
With the integration of the Ethereum blockchain coming up, we have taken a re-look at our trading fees. The following table shows the updated trading fee structure beginning on Oct 30, 2018.
Additionally, trades with a notional value of less than US$500 will now bear the cost of blockchain network fees, until our cross-chain implementation is complete.
These new rates will allow us to absorb network fees for the Ethereum blockchain above the threshold amount, and let us pay a larger network fee on the NEO blockchain, which will benefit traders through more reliable confirmation times.
To offset the change in discount, Switcheo tokens will be used in our upcoming loyalty and referral programmes to further reduce trading fees and earn rewards. These programmes are aimed at encouraging increased token usage as well as the holding of tokens.
We believe the updated fee structure and new programmes will let us remain competitive, while better supporting the interests of our community.
