🔍 Why does your average holding cost quietly change? Unveiling the "invisible rent" in contracts

Funding rate is like the "rent" in the contract market, settled every 8 hours. When you hold a perpetual contract, if the market tilts toward longs, long holders have to pay "rent" to short sellers; conversely, shorts pay longs.

$BANANAS31 is up 15.29%, and the price is at 0.01029 USDT. In a surge like this, the funding rate is likely to turn positive. If you’re holding a long position at this time, it’s like renting an apartment—you have to pay your counterparty a certain percentage every 8 hours. And if you hold a short, you can "collect rent."

This mechanism keeps the contract price aligned with the spot price, but it also quietly affects your holding cost. Especially with high leverage, the funding rate can become a key factor in whether you profit or lose.

Remember: this is like rent in everyday life—one of the costs you can’t ignore in trading.
