What it cost to hold a perpetual on 20 October 2026, and where the volume was.
Funding cost the most on Bitget and the least on MEXC, a gap of 0.0015 percentage points per interval. Carrying the same position for a day cost 0.004% more of notional on the expensive side — 0.04% of margin at 10x.
Funding was positive on every venue, so longs paid shorts across the board.
82 of 846 listed perpetuals cleared $5M of 24-hour volume — 9.7% 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 BTWUSDT at -0.1935% per interval, paid by shorts — 212% annualised if it were to hold, which it will not.
Bitcoin closed the day at 81,666.90, -0.43% against the previous capture.
Fear & Greed sat at 55 (Greed), a middling reading.
