What it cost to hold a perpetual on 23 October 2026, and where the volume was.
Funding cost the most on Bitget and the least on MEXC, a gap of 0.0041 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.
97 of 854 listed perpetuals cleared $5M of 24-hour volume — 11.4% 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 AXISUSDT at -1.8437% per interval, paid by shorts — 2019% annualised if it were to hold, which it will not.
Bitcoin closed the day at 81,145.20, -3.61% against the previous capture.
Fear & Greed sat at 50 (Neutral), a middling reading.
