Question 1

Which exchange has the highest HIVE funding rate right now?

Accepted Answer

BingX shows the highest HIVE funding at +31.51% annualized. A high positive rate means shorts get paid, so this is the venue to short HIVE 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 HIVE for funding?

Accepted Answer

LBank has the lowest HIVE funding at +10.96% 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 HIVE funding-arbitrage pair?

Accepted Answer

The widest spread is long Binance Futures / short BingX at about 20.6% APR before costs. Verify it in the ORBIT backtester, which subtracts real fees and slippage, before sizing a position.

Question 4

How often does HIVE funding settle?

Accepted Answer

HIVE funding settles on different schedules by venue (1h, 4h). 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 HIVE funding positive or negative?

Accepted Answer

HIVE funding is currently positive across venues (longs pay shorts), ranging +10.96% to +31.51% APR.

Question 6

What is the current HIVE perpetual swap funding rate?

Accepted Answer

The current HIVE perpetual swap funding rate ranges from +10.96% to +31.51% annualized depending on the exchange — LBank is lowest and BingX is highest right now. There is no single HIVE 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 HIVE funding rate across exchanges?

Accepted Answer

Aggregated across the 11 venues ORBIT tracks, HIVE funding currently spans +10.96% to +31.51% APR, a spread of 20.6 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 HIVE 8h funding rate versus the annualized rate?

Accepted Answer

HIVE does not settle on an 8-hour schedule on the venues tracked here. Because intervals differ by exchange, comparing raw per-payment rates is misleading; ORBIT normalizes each venue to annualized APR so the numbers are directly comparable.
