  MAX does not sell API access. There is no subscription, quota, or metered charge for using the
  REST or WebSocket API — the API is free to any verified account holder, and MaiCoin monetises
  through trading commission instead. The tiers below are therefore TRADING FEE tiers, not API
  plans: a VIP level sets the maker/taker rate applied to orders an API client submits, which is
  the real per-call cost of automated trading on this venue. Tiers are reached by EITHER 30-day
  trading volume OR MAX token staking, whichever qualifies higher. Levels are recalculated daily
  at 03:00 UTC+8 and rebates are paid in MAX Token at 03:00 daily.
