Funding rate arbitrage: When FOGO funding rates diverge across exchanges, traders can profit by going long on the exchange with lower (or negative) funding and short on the exchange with higher funding. The spread column shows the difference between Hyperliquid and each CEX -- a positive spread means Hyperliquid longs pay more, while a negative spread means CEX longs pay more. These discrepancies typically arise from differences in trader positioning and liquidity across venues.

Understanding Funding Rates

Funding rates are a mechanism unique to perpetual futures contracts. Unlike traditional futures that expire on a set date, perpetual contracts have no expiry. To keep the perpetual price aligned with the underlying spot price, exchanges use a funding rate system where one side periodically pays the other.

On Hyperliquid, funding is settled every 8 hours (three times per day). When the perpetual price trades above the oracle (spot) price, the funding rate is positive and long traders pay short traders. When it trades below, the funding rate is negative and shorts pay longs. This incentivizes arbitrageurs to close the gap between perpetual and spot prices.

For FOGO (FOGO), the current funding rate of +0.0013% per 8h means that a $10,000 position on the paying side would cost approximately $0.13 per funding period. Over a year at this rate, the annualized cost would be 1.37% of the position size.

Frequently Asked Questions

The current FOGO funding rate is +0.0013% per 8-hour period. This means long positions pay short positions at this rate every 8 hours. Annualized, this equates to approximately +1.37%.
FOGO perpetual contracts on Hyperliquid use a funding rate mechanism to keep the perpetual price anchored to the spot price. Every 8 hours, the side with more demand (longs or shorts) pays the other side. If the perpetual price is above spot, longs pay shorts (positive funding). If below, shorts pay longs (negative funding).
A positive funding rate for FOGO means long position holders are paying short position holders. This indicates bullish market sentiment. Traders holding long positions will incur a cost, while those on the opposite side will earn the funding payment.
FOGO funding rate on Hyperliquid is settled every 8 hours, which means there are 3 funding periods per day. The rate can change each period based on market conditions and the premium/discount of the perpetual price relative to the oracle price. Traders should monitor funding rates before and during their positions.
Yes, traders can earn funding payments by taking the side that receives payment. For example, when FOGO funding is positive, short positions receive funding payments from longs. Some traders use a "funding rate arbitrage" strategy by hedging their position on the spot market while collecting funding. However, this requires careful risk management.
Funding rates for FOGO can vary significantly across exchanges because each platform calculates them based on its own order book dynamics, open interest composition, and trader positioning. Hyperliquid, as a decentralized perpetual exchange, often has different liquidity profiles and trader demographics compared to centralized exchanges like Binance, Bybit, or OKX. These differences create funding rate discrepancies that savvy traders can exploit through cross-exchange arbitrage.
Cross-exchange funding rate arbitrage involves opening opposing positions on two exchanges where funding rates differ. For example, if FOGO funding is higher on Hyperliquid than on Binance, you could go short on Hyperliquid (collecting funding) and long on Binance (paying lower funding), profiting from the spread. The position sizes should be equal so price movements cancel out. Key risks include execution timing, margin requirements across multiple exchanges, and the possibility that rates converge before the next settlement.
Funding rates can change every settlement period (typically every 8 hours), so it is advisable to check cross-exchange rates at least before each settlement. Large rate discrepancies between Hyperliquid and CEXes like Binance, Bybit, or OKX tend to be short-lived as arbitrageurs act to close the gap. Monitoring rates around settlement times (every 8 hours) gives you the best opportunity to identify and act on profitable spreads.
