About Aster funding rates

Funding payments keep Aster perpetual contracts pinned to the underlying spot price. A positive Aster funding rate means longs pay shorts — the long side is crowded and willing to pay to hold the position. A negative Aster funding rate means shorts pay longs. All rates on this page are normalized to an 8-hour basis so Aster can be compared directly with venues that fund hourly, every 4 hours, or on any other schedule.
