Rates are per settlement interval (1h/4h/8h depending on exchange) and APR annualizes the current rate at that interval. The Accumulated column sums the rate at each settlement over the selected window (1Y uses exchange-reported yearly accumulation). Live rates update about every 10 seconds.

How to read the colors: funding reflects positioning and the cost of leverage, not price direction. Funding is the fee longs pay shorts (negative means shorts pay longs). Green = funding below the neutral baseline (~0.01% per 8h): holding longs is cheap and the market is not crowded long. Gray = the neutral zone around baseline. Red = elevated funding: longs are crowded and paying up, with deeper red meaning a more extreme premium. The Accumulated column is colored by its per-settlement average, so it reads on the same scale as the live rate. Green funding while price falls = no euphoria and longs are cheap to hold — often a constructive contrarian signal. Red funding while price rises = crowded leveraged longs paying high fees — a setup vulnerable to long squeezes.

The current SAND USDT perpetual funding rate (8h, OI-weighted) is -0.0403%, meaning shorts are paying longs right now. Across the 13 exchanges reporting a rate, it ranges from -0.0626% on Bybit to +0.0100% on WhiteBIT — a spread that shows how positioning differs venue by venue. A negative rate is the less common state — it appears when perpetuals trade below spot and short positioning dominates. Learn more about how funding rates work →

About SAND funding rates

The The Sandbox funding rate (SAND funding rate) is the periodic payment exchanged between longs and shorts on SAND perpetual futures. This page charts the OI-weighted The Sandbox perpetual funding rate (SAND perpetual funding rate) against price, plus each exchange's current rate, accumulated funding from one day out to one year, and the countdown to its next settlement.

The headline rate weights every venue by its share of SAND open interest, so large markets move the aggregate more than small ones. Venues reporting no data are excluded and figures refresh continuously.
