The widest ONDO perpetual spread is between Binance and HTX: long ONDO on Binance at $0.4687 and short on HTX at $0.4705 for +0.38% gross, or +0.22% 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 +0.033% per day, which the position collects while it is open.
For a spot–perpetual (cash-and-carry) trade, the best ONDO route is to buy spot on Bybit and short the perpetual on HTX: +0.34% gross, +0.14% net, with +0.057% a day of funding on the short leg.
Spot–spot ONDO arbitrage (buy on Bybit, withdraw, deposit and sell on Gate) shows +0.06% 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 ONDO 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.
