What it cost to hold a perpetual on 5 September 2026, and where the volume was.
Funding cost the most on MEXC and the least on Bybit, a gap of 0.0019 percentage points per interval. Carrying the same position for a day cost 0.006% more of notional on the expensive side — 0.06% of margin at 10x.
81 of 778 listed perpetuals cleared $5M of 24-hour volume — 10.4% 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 MARSCOINUSDT at 0.7997% per interval, paid by longs — 876% annualised if it were to hold, which it will not.
Bitcoin closed the day at 79,578.20, -2.13% against the previous capture.
Fear & Greed sat at 73 (Greed), a middling reading.
