The following code demonstrates how to accurately the current pool creation fee in HBAR using a combination of JSON RPC and REST API. The pool creation fee is used when creating a new liquidity pool.

The current fee for creating V1 liquidity pools is $50 USD, paid in HBAR. The exchange rate information is used to accurately determine the equivalent value in HBAR.

The pairCreateFee() function will return the current fee expressed in Tinycent (US).
