No transfer is needed: both positions stay on their exchanges until the prices converge. The funding difference on this pair is +0.752% per day, which the position collects while it is open.
For a spot–perpetual (cash-and-carry) trade, the best LYN route is to buy spot on KuCoin and short the perpetual on Bitget: +0.85% gross, +0.65% net, with +1.119% a day of funding on the short leg.
Spot–spot LYN arbitrage (buy on KuCoin, withdraw, deposit and sell on MEXC) shows +0.35% 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 LYN 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.
