What it cost to hold a perpetual on 15 October 2026, and where the volume was.
Funding cost the most on Bitget and the least on MEXC, a gap of 0.0129 percentage points per interval. Carrying the same position for a day cost 0.039% more of notional on the expensive side — 0.39% of margin at 10x.
105 of 833 listed perpetuals cleared $5M of 24-hour volume — 12.6% 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 WALUSDT at -0.3334% per interval, paid by shorts — 365% annualised if it were to hold, which it will not.
Bitcoin closed the day at 81,748.30, -1.03% against the previous capture.
Fear & Greed sat at 53 (Neutral), a middling reading.
