PTB arbitrage explained

Right now Portal to Bitcoin (PTB) trades on 7 venues we scan: 7 perpetual markets, 3 spot markets and 0 DEX pools. The lowest ask is on Gate spot at $0.000858 and the highest bid on Bybit perp at $0.00086.

The widest PTB perpetual spread is between Binance and Bybit: long PTB on Binance at $0.000859 and short on Bybit at $0.00086 for +0.08% gross, or -0.08% 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 PTB route is to buy spot on Gate and short the perpetual on Bybit: +0.29% gross, +0.09% net, with +0.030% a day of funding on the short leg.

Spot–spot PTB arbitrage (buy on Gate, withdraw, deposit and sell on KuCoin) 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 PTB 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.
