According to BlockBeats, data from Coinglass indicates that the funding rates of major centralized and decentralized exchanges (CEX and DEX) are currently reflecting a neutral market stance. The specific funding rates for mainstream cryptocurrencies are detailed in the accompanying data.
Funding rates are fees set by cryptocurrency trading platforms to maintain balance between contract prices and the prices of underlying assets, typically applied to perpetual contracts. This mechanism facilitates the exchange of funds between long and short traders, without the platform charging this fee, to adjust the cost or profit of holding contracts, ensuring contract prices remain close to the asset prices.
A funding rate of 0.01% signifies a baseline rate. When the funding rate exceeds 0.01%, it indicates a generally bullish market sentiment. Conversely, a funding rate below 0.005% suggests a bearish market sentiment.
