Start the fee at $1 and double it each year?
After 30 years if it's not generating $1B a year you let it go. That would make most creations pretty cheap to keep for the first 15 years, corporation level expensive from 15 years to 25 years and global phenomenon level only after 30 years.
If that sounds too aggressive maybe double it only every 2 years.
Global GDP before the 50 year mark.
