The heatmap shows BCH funding on 17 exchanges across every 8-hour settlement: the latest OI-weighted BCH funding rate is 0.0020% per 8-hour settlement, and BCH funding summed to 0.489% over the last 30 days. Green cells mean shorts paid longs, red cells mean longs paid shorts, grey is the 0.01% baseline.
This grid shows the BCH perpetual funding rate on every exchange we track, one column per 8-hour settlement, with the OI-weighted market average in the first row and BCH price candles on the same time axis. Green cells mean shorts paid longs, grey is flat, and amber through red mark increasingly crowded longs.
Reading across a row shows how one venue's BCH funding evolved; reading down a column shows how the venues disagreed at a single settlement. Persistent gaps between rows are the raw material for funding arbitrage, while a column that turns uniformly red or green marks a moment when positioning was crowded on one side everywhere.
Exchanges settle funding on different schedules — some every hour, most every 8 hours. Cells show each venue's rate as reported (a 1h tag marks hourly venues) while the colour uses the 8-hour equivalent, so rows stay comparable. The OI-weighted average row weights each venue by its BCH open interest.
The 24-hour window shows hourly cells, 7 to 90 days one cell per settlement, and the 1-year window sums each UTC day and prints the totals. Shaded bands on the price row mark stretches when most venues were crowded long, paying shorts or deeply cold, and the slider under the grid zooms into any part of the window. The total at the end of a row is what a position held for the whole window would have paid or received.
Each cell is the BCH perpetual funding rate one exchange charged at one 8-hour settlement, in percent. Rows are exchanges plus the OI-weighted market average; columns are settlements; colour follows the rate, from green (negative, shorts pay longs) through grey (flat) and amber to red and pink (increasingly crowded longs).
Funding is set per venue from the gap between that venue's perpetual price and the index, so it reflects local positioning and local rules such as clamps and intervals. Persistent differences between rows are what funding arbitrage strategies trade.
It is the BCH funding rate across all tracked exchanges, weighted by each venue's open interest and normalized to an 8-hour interval, so venues with more positions count more and hourly venues are scaled to the common 8-hour basis.
The 1-year window sums every settlement of each UTC day per venue. Completed days come from the settled record; the current day sums the settlements that have already occurred.
