SPACE arbitrage explained
Right now Spacecoin (SPACE) trades on 8 venues we scan: 8 perpetual markets, 4 spot markets and 0 DEX pools. The lowest ask is on OKX spot at $0.004593 and the highest bid on Gate perp at $0.004604.
The widest SPACE perpetual spread is between OKX and Gate: long SPACE on OKX at $0.004597 and short on Gate at $0.004604 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 0.000% per day, which the position collects while it is open.
For a spot–perpetual (cash-and-carry) trade, the best SPACE route is to buy spot on OKX and short the perpetual on Gate: +0.24% gross, +0.04% net, with +0.030% a day of funding on the short leg.
Spot–spot SPACE arbitrage (buy on OKX, withdraw, deposit and sell on Bitget) shows +0.04% 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 SPACE 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.
