What it cost to hold a perpetual on 12 September 2026, and where the volume was.
Funding cost the most on MEXC and the least on OKX, a gap of 0.0035 percentage points per interval. Carrying the same position for a day cost 0.011% more of notional on the expensive side — 0.11% of margin at 10x.
Funding was positive on every venue, so longs paid shorts across the board.
81 of 787 listed perpetuals cleared $5M of 24-hour volume — 10.3% 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 VTHOUSDT at -0.8231% per interval, paid by shorts — 901% annualised if it were to hold, which it will not.
Bitcoin closed the day at 77,259.60, +0.59% against the previous capture.
Fear & Greed sat at 63 (Greed), a middling reading.
