Crypto Funding and Volume — 27 August 2026

What it cost to hold a perpetual on 27 August 2026, and where the volume was.

Funding cost the most on Binance and the least on Kraken, a gap of 0.0050 percentage points per interval. Carrying the same position for a day cost 0.015% more of notional on the expensive side — 0.15% of margin at 10x.

Funding was positive on every venue, so longs paid shorts across the board.

75 of 763 listed perpetuals cleared $5M of 24-hour volume — 9.8% of the board. Outside that set, spreads widen and a market order costs more than the fee schedule suggests.

The widest funding on the board was BICOUSDT at -0.2550% per interval, paid by shorts — 279% annualised if it were to hold, which it will not.

Fear & Greed sat at 71 (Greed), a middling reading.
