# SONIC funding rate history — settled payments by exchange

Source: https://orbitperpscreener.com/markets/asset/SONIC/funding · window: last 30 days · generated 2026-10-01T05:40 UTC

What SONIC actually paid over the last 30 days: 1,800 settlements across 10 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. Binance Futures paid the most over the window at +2.9789% 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 99% of the 1,800 settlements recorded here, meaning longs paid shorts that often.

Over the window, settled totals ranged from +2.9789% on Binance Futures to +0.8883% on Bybit — 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.

## FAQ

### Is the SONIC 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 99% of the 1,800 settlements recorded here.

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

Binance Futures paid the most over the last 30 days at +2.9789% of position size across 180 settlements, an average annualized rate of +36.27%. This is a sum of actual payments, not a forecast.

### How often is SONIC funding actually paid?

Over the last 30 days, ORBIT recorded 1,800 funding settlements for SONIC across 10 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 SONIC funding spread between venues?

Over the last 30 days, settled totals ranged from +2.9789% on Binance Futures to +0.8883% on Bybit. 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.
