SOMI arbitrage explained
Right now Somnia (SOMI) trades on 8 venues we scan: 8 perpetual markets, 6 spot markets and 0 DEX pools. The lowest ask is on KuCoin perp at $0.2006 and the highest bid on KuCoin spot at $0.201.
The widest SOMI perpetual spread is between KuCoin and Bitget: long SOMI on KuCoin at $0.2006 and short on Bitget at $0.2008 for +0.10% gross, or -0.06% 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 SOMI route is to buy spot on Binance and short the perpetual on Bitget: -0.15% gross, -0.35% net, with +0.030% a day of funding on the short leg.
Spot–spot SOMI arbitrage (buy on Binance, withdraw, deposit and sell on Gate) shows -0.05% 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 SOMI 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.
