Crypto Funding and Volume — 29 August 2026

What it cost to hold a perpetual on 29 August 2026, and where the volume was.

Funding cost the most on Bitget and the least on Kraken, a gap of 0.0099 percentage points per interval. Carrying the same position for a day cost 0.030% more of notional on the expensive side — 0.30% of margin at 10x.

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

73 of 765 listed perpetuals cleared $5M of 24-hour volume — 9.5% 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 ONGUSDT at -0.2310% per interval, paid by shorts — 253% annualised if it were to hold, which it will not.

Bitcoin closed the day at 77,862.90, -2.04% against the previous capture.

Fear & Greed sat at 68 (Greed), a middling reading.
