What does a stock-token oracle premium mean?

Follow a worked BNB example from a 3% oracle premium to the amount left after gas, then compare it with what you paid for the stock tokens.

MAG7X's 3% acquisition premium is measured above the oracle price, the reference supplied by a price feed. MAG7X is a BNB Chain token launched through Flap. Its trading taxes fund a reserve that can use this pricing rule to buy supported stock tokens from their holders.

Which price is the starting point?

The reserve uses its oracle reference when quoting a stock-token sale for BNB. A premium of 300 basis points means 3%: one basis point is one hundredth of a percentage point. Check the current setting alongside your quote.

The reserve contract exposes both the premium setting and the sale quote. That lets a supported stock-token holder compare the vault’s offer with other available sale routes.

Follow the calculation

Suppose the oracle values your stock tokens at 0.01 BNB and the quoted premium is 3%. Here is a hypothetical sale, using example fees rather than live estimates:

Step BNB
Oracle reference 0.010000
Quote with 3% premium 0.010300
Approval gas, if needed −0.000005
Swap gas −0.000005
Net sale proceeds 0.010290

The calculation is 0.01 × 1.03, minus both transaction fees. If acquiring those tokens cost 0.010200 BNB in total, the difference is 0.000090 BNB. If your purchase cost was above 0.010290 BNB, this same sale would return less than you spent. The oracle premium alone does not settle that comparison.

What are the net proceeds?

A disconnected preview does not include gas estimates. After connecting, the desk estimates approval gas if needed; once approved, it can estimate the swap. Its cost comparison uses swap gas, so account for a separate approval fee yourself. If comparing a price in dollars, convert both amounts at the same BNB exchange rate.

Try it with your stock token

During accumulation, the reserve’s buying phase, each supported asset has a separate BNB budget. Open MAG7X’s stock-sale desk, select your supported token and enter a quantity. You can preview the BNB quote before connecting a wallet.

Check the asset’s buying capacity and minimum trade requirement alongside the quote. Once your amount fits, review the expected output, minimum received and fees to compare a sale on the same terms as your alternatives.
