Question 1

Which exchange has the highest KAITO funding rate right now?

Accepted Answer

N1 shows the highest KAITO funding at +488.27% annualized. A high positive rate means shorts get paid, so this is the venue to short KAITO 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 KAITO for funding?

Accepted Answer

Crypto.com has the lowest KAITO funding at -26.94% 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 KAITO funding-arbitrage pair?

Accepted Answer

The widest spread is long Crypto.com / short BloFin at about 64.2% APR before costs. Verify it in the ORBIT backtester, which subtracts real fees and slippage, before sizing a position.

Question 4

How often does KAITO funding settle?

Accepted Answer

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

Accepted Answer

KAITO funding is mixed across venues, ranging -26.94% to +488.27% APR — which is exactly what creates the cross-exchange arbitrage opportunity.

Question 6

What is the current KAITO perpetual swap funding rate?

Accepted Answer

The current KAITO perpetual swap funding rate ranges from -26.94% to +488.27% annualized depending on the exchange — Crypto.com is lowest and N1 is highest right now. There is no single KAITO 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 KAITO funding rate across exchanges?

Accepted Answer

Aggregated across the 34 venues ORBIT tracks, KAITO funding currently spans -26.94% to +488.27% APR, a spread of 64.2 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 KAITO 8h funding rate versus the annualized rate?

Accepted Answer

Venues that settle KAITO 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.
