Question 1

Which exchange has the highest DIS funding rate right now?

Accepted Answer

Bitunix shows the highest DIS funding at +8.39% annualized. A high positive rate means shorts get paid, so this is the venue to short DIS when running a funding-arbitrage pair. Rates change every settlement window — check the live screener for the current value.

Question 2

Which exchange is best to long DIS for funding?

Accepted Answer

WEEX has the lowest DIS funding at -10.94% annualized, which makes the long leg cheapest (or paid). Pair it with the highest-funding venue to capture the spread delta-neutral.

Question 3

What is the best DIS funding-arbitrage pair?

Accepted Answer

The widest spread is long WEEX / short Bitunix at about 19.3% APR before costs. Verify it in the ORBIT backtester, which subtracts real fees and slippage, before sizing a position.

Question 4

How often does DIS funding settle?

Accepted Answer

DIS funding settles every 8h. Longer intervals concentrate the same annualized rate into fewer, larger payments. ORBIT normalizes every venue to a common APR so they are directly comparable.

Question 5

Is DIS funding positive or negative?

Accepted Answer

DIS funding is mixed across venues, ranging -10.94% to +8.39% APR — which is exactly what creates the cross-exchange arbitrage opportunity.

Question 6

What is the current DIS perpetual swap funding rate?

Accepted Answer

The current DIS perpetual swap funding rate ranges from -10.94% to +8.39% annualized depending on the exchange — WEEX is lowest and Bitunix is highest right now. There is no single DIS funding rate: every venue runs its own funding formula and order book, which is why the rate has to be read by exchange rather than as one number.

Question 7

What is the aggregated DIS funding rate across exchanges?

Accepted Answer

Aggregated across the 13 venues ORBIT tracks, DIS funding currently spans -10.94% to +8.39% APR, a spread of 19.3 percentage points. An aggregated average hides the part that matters for trading — the gap between the cheapest and dearest venue — so the table above lists each exchange separately.

Question 8

How do I read the DIS 8h funding rate versus the annualized rate?

Accepted Answer

Venues that settle DIS every 8 hours quote the per-payment rate, which is charged three times a day. Multiply an 8h rate by 3 to get the daily figure and by 1,095 to annualize it. ORBIT converts every venue — 1h, 4h and 8h alike — to a common APR so an 8h rate and a 1h rate can be compared directly.
