What it cost to hold a perpetual on 16 September 2026, and where the volume was.
Funding cost the most on Bitget and the least on Bybit, a gap of 0.0039 percentage points per interval. Carrying the same position for a day cost 0.012% more of notional on the expensive side — 0.12% of margin at 10x.
Funding was positive on every venue, so longs paid shorts across the board.
89 of 787 listed perpetuals cleared $5M of 24-hour volume — 11.3% 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 ASTRUSDT at -1.2552% per interval, paid by shorts — 1374% annualised if it were to hold, which it will not.
Bitcoin closed the day at 75,747.10, -2.97% against the previous capture.
Fear & Greed sat at 51 (Neutral), a middling reading.
