Question 1

Which exchange has the highest TAKE funding rate right now?

Accepted Answer

KuCoin shows the highest TAKE funding at +87.66% annualized. A high positive rate means shorts get paid, so this is the venue to short TAKE 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 TAKE for funding?

Accepted Answer

Gate.io has the lowest TAKE 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 TAKE funding-arbitrage pair?

Accepted Answer

The widest spread is long Gate.io / short KuCoin at about 76.7% APR before costs. Verify it in the ORBIT backtester, which subtracts real fees and slippage, before sizing a position.

Question 4

How often does TAKE funding settle?

Accepted Answer

TAKE funding settles every 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 TAKE funding positive or negative?

Accepted Answer

TAKE funding is currently positive across venues (longs pay shorts), ranging +10.96% to +87.66% APR.

Question 6

What is the current TAKE perpetual swap funding rate?

Accepted Answer

The current TAKE perpetual swap funding rate ranges from +10.96% to +87.66% annualized depending on the exchange — Gate.io is lowest and KuCoin is highest right now. There is no single TAKE 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 TAKE funding rate across exchanges?

Accepted Answer

Aggregated across the 12 venues ORBIT tracks, TAKE funding currently spans +10.96% to +87.66% APR, a spread of 76.7 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 TAKE 8h funding rate versus the annualized rate?

Accepted Answer

TAKE 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.
