ETC arbitrage explained

Right now Ethereum Classic (ETC) trades on 11 venues we scan: 11 perpetual markets, 7 spot markets and 0 DEX pools. The lowest ask is on OKX perp at $8.46 and the highest bid on HTX perp at $8.47.

The widest ETC perpetual spread is between OKX and HTX: long ETC on OKX at $8.46 and short on HTX at $8.47 for +0.15% gross, or -0.01% 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 +0.018% per day, which the position collects while it is open.

For a spot–perpetual (cash-and-carry) trade, the best ETC route is to buy spot on KuCoin and short the perpetual on HTX: +0.11% gross, -0.09% net, with +0.030% a day of funding on the short leg.

Spot–spot ETC arbitrage (buy on KuCoin, withdraw, deposit and sell on Bitget) shows +0.02% 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 ETC 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.

How do I arbitrage ETC without transferring coins?

Use two perpetual contracts: go long ETC on the cheaper exchange (OKX now) and short it on the more expensive one (HTX), then close both legs when the spread converges. The coins never move between exchanges.
