About Bittensor Funding Rate

What is the TAO funding rate?

The TAO funding rate is a periodic payment between long and short traders on Bittensor perpetual futures, designed to keep the contract price anchored to the spot index. When the rate is positive, longs pay shorts; when negative, shorts pay longs. It is the main ongoing cost (or income) of holding a leveraged TAO perpetual position.

What does a positive or negative TAO funding rate mean?

A persistently positive TAO funding rate signals crowded long positioning and bullish sentiment — longs keep paying to stay in the trade. A negative rate signals short-side dominance and bearish sentiment. Extreme funding rates in either direction often indicate an overcrowded trade and raise the risk of a sharp reversal or short squeeze/long squeeze.

What is the current TAO funding rate?

As of now, the TAO funding rate averages 0.0052% across 23 exchanges CoinBoss tracks, and the rate is positive. This figure updates in real time — check the table above for the latest per-exchange breakdown and the OI-weighted composite rate.

Which exchange has the highest TAO funding rate?

Right now coinex shows the highest (or most extreme) TAO funding rate among tracked exchanges, at 0.0384%. Funding rates can vary meaningfully across exchanges due to differences in order-book premium, index price and leverage demand — creating potential funding rate arbitrage opportunities.
Most exchanges settle funding every 8 hours (00:00 / 08:00 / 16:00 UTC). Actual settlement intervals may vary by exchange and contract.
