What the Q funding rate means
What Q (Quack AI) actually paid over the last 30 days: 3,060 settlements across 14 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. Hotcoin paid the most over the window at +3.0843% 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 100% of the 3,060 settlements recorded here, meaning longs paid shorts that often.
Over the window, settled totals ranged from +3.0843% on Hotcoin to +0.9482% on Gate.io — 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

- Hotcoin paid the most over the last 30 days at +3.0843% of position size across 180 settlements, an average annualized rate of +37.55%. This is a sum of actual payments, not a forecast.
- How often is Q funding actually paid?
