Ethereum funding on Binance, explained
Binance runs the deepest perpetual order book in crypto, so its funding tends to be the market reference. Spreads are tight, which matters when you're hedging a carry.
Every eight hours, Binance settles a payment between longs and shorts on the ETH/USDT perpetual. Positive funding means longs pay shorts; negative means shorts pay longs. We annualise the 8h figure (× 3 × 365) so it's comparable to the yields you'd see on a lending product.
Above ±10% annualised is loud — someone's paying real money to hold their side. Above ±25% rarely lasts more than a few days. Around zero, the rate is mostly noise and a carry's round-trip cost will eat any edge. Always check the cross-venue view before you commit — the loudest rate isn't always on Binance.
