What the GBP funding rate means
What GBP (British Pound (GBP/USD)) actually paid over the last 30 days: 2,343 settlements across 10 venues, broken down venue by venue. These are settled payments β the amount an exchange actually charged or credited each funding interval β not the rate currently quoted for the next payment. WEEX paid the most over the window at +1.2006% of position size.
A funding rate quoted right now is a forecast of the next payment; what a position actually earned is the sum of payments that already settled. Two venues can quote a similar rate and still pay very differently over a month, because they settle on different schedules and compute the rate from their own order book rather than a shared index. The rate was positive in 20% of the 2,343 settlements recorded here, meaning longs paid shorts that often.
Over the window, settled totals ranged from +1.2006% on WEEX to -1.2385% on Bitget β the gap between them is what a delta-neutral position collecting on both legs would have captured before fees and slippage.
