What it cost to hold a perpetual on 29 September 2026, and where the volume was.
Funding cost the most on Bitget and the least on MEXC, a gap of 0.0058 percentage points per interval. Carrying the same position for a day cost 0.017% more of notional on the expensive side — 0.17% of margin at 10x.
Funding was positive on every venue, so longs paid shorts across the board.
95 of 804 listed perpetuals cleared $5M of 24-hour volume — 11.8% 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 ONEUSDT at -0.0834% per interval, paid by shorts — 91% annualised if it were to hold, which it will not.
Bitcoin closed the day at 83,390.20, -1.25% against the previous capture.
Fear & Greed sat at 73 (Greed), a middling reading.
