The short version

  • Each has a real cost: Bitget the Internet Archive's capture of Bitget's fee schedule page on 4 December 2023 confirmed trading fees can be discounted by paying with the BGB token and that a tiered VIP program grants further discounts, but the underlying fee percentages are loaded client-side and were not present in the captured HTML.; MakerDAO makerDAO is governed as a decentralized autonomous organization by MKR token holder vote rather than a vendor, so it has no company-set price list, subscription tiers or sales contact; access and fees (stability fee, liquidation ratio) are set by on-chain governance vote rather than published as a product price
  • They diverge on capability: Bitget covers Spot Trading, MakerDAO covers DAI Stablecoin.
