What the IOTA funding rate means
What IOTA actually paid over the last 30 days: 1,980 settlements across 15 venues, broken down venue by venue. These are settled payments — the amount an exchange actually charged or credited each funding interval — not the rate currently quoted for the next payment. KuCoin paid the most over the window at +1.9074% 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 89% of the 1,980 settlements recorded here, meaning longs paid shorts that often.
Over the window, settled totals ranged from +1.9074% on KuCoin to +0.1777% on Hyperliquid — the gap between them is what a delta-neutral position collecting on both legs would have captured before fees and slippage. Verify the live version of this spread on the ORBIT funding screener before sizing a trade: settled history shows what already happened, not what will happen next.
Frequently asked questions
- Is the IOTA funding rate a live quote or an actual payment?
- 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 89% of the 1,980 settlements recorded here.
- Which exchange has paid the most settled IOTA funding recently?
- KuCoin paid the most over the last 30 days at +1.9074% of position size across 90 settlements, an average annualized rate of +23.22%. This is a sum of actual payments, not a forecast.
- How often is IOTA funding actually paid?
- Over the last 30 days, ORBIT recorded 1,980 funding settlements for IOTA across 15 venues. Settlement schedules differ by venue — some pay hourly, others every 4 or 8 hours — so the number of payments per venue in the table above is not the same for all of them.
