# BTC funding rate history — settled payments by exchange

Source: https://orbitperpscreener.com/markets/asset/BTC/funding · window: last 30 days · generated 2026-09-23T19:05 UTC

What BTC actually paid over the last 30 days: 12,055 settlements across 35 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. Arcus paid the most over the window at +0.8949% 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 86% of the 12,055 settlements recorded here, meaning longs paid shorts that often.

Over the window, settled totals ranged from +0.8949% on Arcus to -0.2311% on Hotcoin — the gap between them is what a delta-neutral position collecting on both legs would have captured before fees and slippage.

## FAQ

### Is the BTC funding rate a live quote or an actual payment?

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 86% of the 12,055 settlements recorded here.

### Which exchange has paid the most settled BTC funding recently?

Arcus paid the most over the last 30 days at +0.8949% of position size across 720 settlements, an average annualized rate of +10.90%. This is a sum of actual payments, not a forecast.

### How often is BTC funding actually paid?

Over the last 30 days, ORBIT recorded 12,055 funding settlements for BTC across 35 venues. Settlement schedules differ by venue — some pay hourly, others every 4 or 8 hours — so the number of payments per venue in the table above is not the same for all of them.

### What is the widest settled BTC funding spread between venues?

Over the last 30 days, settled totals ranged from +0.8949% on Arcus to -0.2311% on Hotcoin. That gap is what a position holding both legs — long on the venue that paid least, short on the one that paid most — would have collected before fees and slippage.
