About KuCoin funding & fees
KuCoin is a centralized perpetual futures exchange tracked live on ORBIT, listing 50 perpetual markets, $3.99B total open interest, $404.9M in 24h volume. Average funding across its markets is +13.69% annualized. ORBIT compares KuCoin's funding rates against 35 other venues so you can spot where it diverges from the rest of the market.
KuCoin charges 0.06% taker and 0.02% maker fees on perpetuals. Via the ORBIT referral you also get: 20% trading fee discount. Execution cost matters for funding arbitrage — ORBIT's backtester subtracts both legs' taker fees plus live order-book slippage, so the PnL it shows is net of what you actually pay.
KuCoin's native token KCS is already live. Funding-rate incentives on listed-token venues are usually steadier than pre-TGE points, which makes KuCoin a reliable leg for delta-neutral pairs.
To run funding arbitrage with KuCoin, find an asset whose funding here diverges from another venue on the [Funding Screener](/screener), then verify the pair in the [backtester](/pair/BTC). Its most active markets right now include BTC (+9.09%), ETH (+5.58%), XRP (+2.30%).
