The widest DASH perpetual spread is between Binance and HTX: long DASH on Binance at $54.17 and short on HTX at $54.36 for +0.35% gross, or +0.19% 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 +0.041% per day, which the position collects while it is open.
For a spot–perpetual (cash-and-carry) trade, the best DASH route is to buy spot on Binance and short the perpetual on HTX: +0.31% gross, +0.11% net, with +0.030% a day of funding on the short leg.
Spot–spot DASH arbitrage (buy on Binance, withdraw, deposit and sell on KuCoin) shows +0.09% 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 DASH 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.
