Funding rate arbitrage

No directional risk · Interest-free 10x principal · Funding-rate yield

The futures leg and the spot leg are opened together, opposite in direction and matched in notional, so price moves cancel each other out. Scaling principal runs on exchange position rules rather than borrowingscale principal 10x without directional riskwhich leaves one source of return: the funding rate that perpetual contracts settle every 8 hours, executed and monitored around the clock.

The edge is that returns do not depend on which way price moves

Whether BTC rises or falls, matched notional on both legs leaves the funding collected for that period unchanged. The periods where the rate turns negative are paid out of this side — that is visible in the year-by-year table, not hidden.

Performance traces back to the backend

Year-by-year figures come from period-by-period funding snapshots in the backend, as of 2026-08-25, and can be reconciled cell by cell once an account is open.

The ugliest cell was not removed

ETHUSDT returned 7.873% across 2022, and it sits in the same table as the best one.

All four cost lines recorded

Futures-leg fee, spot-leg fee, cost of scaling capital and slippage, traceable per fill — including the one that settles at zero because it carries no interest.

The 7% floor is a term, not an extrapolation

On the capital-and-yield-protected plan, the take-home annual figure does not fall below that line; whatever the market fails to produce is topped up by the platform, and the calculator shows that top-up as its own line. The other two plans guarantee principal only, or neither, in exchange for a share of the excess.

There are no third-party certification badges in this row. We have no public audit report, licence or client list, and a row of grey logos is the cheapest lie this kind of page tells. All four items above can be reconciled in your own exchange account or in the console here.

Performance

Base return plus scaled return, taken from period-by-period funding snapshots in the backend as of 2026-08-25. The curve above answers "how much has been earned to date"; the year-by-year table answers "how much did each year produce".

How it works

Four steps from spotting the opportunity to money landing in the account. Principal scales 10x from the exchange's own position rules, which is the only reason funding income scales.

1

Watch the rate

Funding rates on perpetual contracts are monitored continuously. A positive rate means longs pay shorts; a negative rate means the reverse.

2

Open the hedge

Buy spot and short the perpetual at matched notional. The two legs cancel each other out as price moves, so directional exposure goes to zero.

3

Collect funding

Funding settles every 8 hours at 00:00, 08:00 and 16:00 UTC. Nothing has to be timed by hand, and the amount does not depend on which way price went.

4

Interest-free 10x principal

The multiple comes from the exchange's own position rules rather than a loan, so there is no hourly interest accruing against the account. Principal scales to 10x while directional exposure stays at zero: across 2021–2025 that moves the average annual figure from 12.43% to 124.296%, credited period by period.

The full mechanics, including what it costs

Plans

From 5,000 USDT, terms of 1-5 年, and one flat 2% annual management fee across all three plans, taken from returns rather than billed separately. What differs is the protection ladder: a 100% principal guarantee plus a 7% floor APR with the entire excess going to the platform, a principal guarantee without the floor, or neither in exchange for the larger share of the excess.

Read the methodology, then the numbers, then talk about subscribing

How the net figure is computed, where the denominator is sampled, and which flows are deliberately excluded — that number only means something once those three are clear.

The three operating figures in the hero row (active users, BTC under management, execution success rate) are provided by the operator and are not wired to an automatic backend feed. Every other number on this page comes from period-by-period funding snapshots in the backend.
