Crypto Market Sentiment Remains Neutral as Funding Rates Hold Steady

AI Summary

According to BlockBeats, data from Coinglass indicates that the current funding rates on major centralized and decentralized exchanges (CEX and DEX) suggest that the market's bullish sentiment has not reached an overheated level. The funding rates for mainstream crypto asset contracts on CEXs are maintaining a neutral base rate of 0.01%.

Funding rates are a mechanism used by cryptocurrency trading platforms to balance the contract price with the underlying asset price, typically applied to perpetual contracts. This rate facilitates the exchange of funds between long and short traders, without the trading platform charging a fee. It serves to adjust the cost or profit of holding contracts, ensuring that contract prices remain close to the underlying asset prices.@Binance News
