What is Funding Payment?

note

This is a work in progress and can change on the final version.

Funding Payment

The 8-hour tax that keeps perps honest.

2 examples

• +0.01% → Longs pay Shorts $1 every $10 k
• -0.02% → Shorts pay Longs $2 every $10 k

Your 20× BTC long at 60 k

Every 8 h you pay or receive:
Your position × rate
→ $6 if rate is +0.01%
→ $18/day total

3 rules, zero bleed

1. Open only when rate is green → you get paid.
2. Close after 3 red payments → $50+/day hurts.
3. Tap the clock icon → app shows exactly what you pay next hour.

Bottom line

Green rate = free money while you sleep.
Red rate = rent.
0.05%+ = run.
