Current funding rates across nine exchanges, with settlement intervals and 30-day volatility. The real hidden cost of holding a perpetual is usually funding, not the trading fee.

"30d volatility" is the standard deviation of settlements over the last 30 days (Bybit as reference venue). The current rate is a snapshot — some symbols read 0.0000% right now yet swing hard, so a snapshot alone understates the cost of holding.

A positive rate means longs pay shorts; negative means shorts pay longs. Figures are per settlement, not annualized.

What is a funding rate?

Perpetuals have no expiry, so exchanges use funding to anchor the contract to spot: at a premium longs pay shorts, at a discount the reverse. Hold through a settlement and you pay or receive, whether or not you close afterwards.

How to read this table

Start with the settlement interval — most symbols settle every 8 hours, but some (crude oil, CL) settle every 4, charging three times a day and accumulating twice as fast. Then look at 30-day volatility: the higher it is, the less the current rate tells you about what holding will actually cost.

Which costs more, funding or fees?

It depends on holding time. Short-term trading is dominated by fees — and fees are the part a rebate binding lowers directly. Hold for longer and funding often exceeds fees by an order of magnitude, and cannot be fixed in advance. Real cost is both together.
