Apex
Invite OnlySame features. Lowest fees. Highest limits. Largest Lightning cap. Priority support channel.
Why this design
A lot of crypto products are built on the unspoken assumption that the free tier should be deliberately crippled — slow, ad-supported, missing features — so users feel the pressure to upgrade. We disagree. Crypto traders are sophisticated and a crippled free tier just sends them somewhere else. So we built Dequan the other way: free tier is the full experience. What you pay for is more of it. The economics still work because:- A serious trader hitting Scout’s limits is a trader making real volume, and real volume on standard fees is enough to fund the platform.
- Sniper and Apex traders are typically high-volume users for whom fee discounts and higher limits matter much more than feature gates would.
- Invite-only access to upgraded tiers prevents tier-fatigue: traders aren’t pestered to upgrade, they’re invited when their usage warrants it.
What “same features” actually means
To be totally explicit:- The Pump Zone is identical across tiers. Same data, same axes, same formations, same TQS, same chart engines.
- Honeypot Guard, drain detection, holder/dev surveillance — identical.
- Pre-execution warmup — identical.
- Parallel landing — identical paths, same race logic.
- Adaptive fees & slippage — same algorithms.
- Lightning Wallet — available on every tier (with tier-based balance caps).
- Token Quality Score — identical computation.
- Charts (TradingView Advanced + Cinematic) — identical.
- Token Detail Tabs (Trades, Holders, Top Traders, Dev Tokens) — identical.
- Sniper List — identical.
- Burn Barrel — identical.
- Per-trade and per-session fee rate
- Daily trade volume limits
- Lightning Wallet balance cap
- Fast Mode availability (Sniper/Apex)
- Priority support channel (Apex)
What this means in practice
You can sign up to Scout right now, fund a wallet, and have access to the entire surface area of the platform. You can hold there forever and never feel forced to upgrade. If your trading volume eventually grows to the point where Scout’s fee tier and limits are leaving meaningful money on the table, an invite to Sniper or Apex becomes the natural next step. We measure success not by upgrade conversion but by retention — Scout users who stay because the tool is good. The fact that Scout is good enough to retain you on its own is the strongest possible evidence that the upgraded tiers are worth their cost when they fit.Continue → Scout in detail
