CTC arbitrage explained
Right now Creditcoin (CTC) trades on 7 venues we scan: 4 perpetual markets, 6 spot markets and 0 DEX pools. The lowest ask is on Bybit perp at $0.113 and the highest bid on Bybit spot at $0.1138.
The widest CTC perpetual spread is between Bybit and MEXC: long CTC on Bybit at $0.113 and short on MEXC at $0.113 for -0.04% gross, or -0.20% after the 0.16% two-leg fee model. No transfer is needed: both positions stay on their exchanges until the prices converge. The funding difference on this pair is 0.000% per day, which the position collects while it is open.
For a spot–perpetual (cash-and-carry) trade, the best CTC route is to buy spot on MEXC and short the perpetual on MEXC: -0.44% gross, -0.64% net, with +0.030% a day of funding on the short leg.
Spot–spot CTC arbitrage (buy on MEXC, withdraw, deposit and sell on Bybit) shows +0.33% gross right now. It only works if withdrawals on the buying exchange and deposits on the selling exchange are open, so check the D/W dots before moving coins.
Small CTC gaps usually disappear after fees, slippage and funding. Look at the Net column, the executable Depth and the spread history before trading: a gap that has been open for days is a different trade from a one-minute spike.
