Right now TerraClassicUSD (USTC) perpetual futures trade on 7 exchanges we track. The highest funding is on Binance at +0.030% per day, the lowest on Variational at +0.030%. The average across all venues is +0.030% per day, or about +10.9% a year. Positive funding means USTC longs are paying shorts — the market is leaning long.
The gap between the highest and lowest venue is +0.000% per day. A delta-neutral position that shorts USTC on Binance and goes long on Variational would collect that difference at each settlement, before trading fees and the price spread between the two contracts.

Settlement intervals differ: USTC funding is paid every 4 hours depending on the exchange, so every rate on this page is also shown normalised to 24 hours and as an APR.
