Current Funding Rates on Major CEXs and DEXs Indicate a Return to Market Neutrality

BlockBeats News, July 19 — According to data from Coinglass, the current funding rates on major CEXs and DEXs indicate that the market has returned to a neutral stance. The specific funding rates for major cryptocurrencies are shown in the attached chart.

BlockBeats Note: Funding rates are fees set by cryptocurrency trading platforms to maintain a balance between contract prices and the prices of underlying assets, typically applied to perpetual contracts. This mechanism facilitates the exchange of funds between long and short traders; the trading platform does not collect this fee. It is used to adjust the cost or yield of holding contracts, ensuring that contract prices remain close to the underlying asset prices.

When the funding rate is 0.01%, it represents the benchmark rate. If the funding rate is higher than 0.01%, it indicates a generally bullish market sentiment. If the funding rate is lower than 0.005%, it suggests a generally bearish market sentiment.
