What the USDC funding rate means now

The USDC perpetual on Binance currently pays +0.0046% every 8 hours, about +5.0% annualized. The rate is positive, so longs pay shorts at each settlement. Over the past 7 days the settled rate averaged +1.2% annualized.

On OKX the USDC perpetual pays 0.0000% every 8 hours, about 0.0% annualized. The 7-day average is 0.0%.

The current annualized gap between the two exchanges is 5.0%. Treat it as a reference only: arbitrage returns are reduced by fees and slippage, and rates and liquidation risk change every period.

You only pay or receive funding if you hold a position at the settlement time. Rates update every few minutes; check the exchange before trading.
