Question 1

Which exchange has the highest QTUM funding rate right now?

Accepted Answer

Crypto.com shows the highest QTUM funding at +116.71% annualized. A high positive rate means shorts get paid, so this is the venue to short QTUM 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 QTUM for funding?

Accepted Answer

Pionex has the lowest QTUM 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 QTUM funding-arbitrage pair?

Accepted Answer

The widest spread is long Binance Futures / short Crypto.com at about 105.8% APR before costs. Verify it in the ORBIT backtester, which subtracts real fees and slippage, before sizing a position.

Question 4

How often does QTUM funding settle?

Accepted Answer

QTUM 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 QTUM funding positive or negative?

Accepted Answer

QTUM funding is currently positive across venues (longs pay shorts), ranging +10.96% to +116.71% APR.

Question 6

What is the current QTUM perpetual swap funding rate?

Accepted Answer

The current QTUM perpetual swap funding rate ranges from +10.96% to +116.71% annualized depending on the exchange — Pionex is lowest and Crypto.com is highest right now. There is no single QTUM 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 QTUM funding rate across exchanges?

Accepted Answer

Aggregated across the 15 venues ORBIT tracks, QTUM funding currently spans +10.96% to +116.71% APR, a spread of 105.8 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 QTUM 8h funding rate versus the annualized rate?

Accepted Answer

Venues that settle QTUM 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.
