$AIN Current funding rate: +0.0739% (settled every 4 hours); longs pay. Simply annualized based on this period, that’s about 161.8%.
Let’s use this figure to talk about funding rates.
Funding rates are mainly made up of two components: the premium of the contract over spot, plus a base interest rate. When the premium is very small, most contracts with 8-hour settlement periods are around 0.01%.
When comparing funding rates, it’s best to convert them to the same settlement interval: the same rate means a contract that settles every 4 hours will settle several times a day.
The same data can mean very different things under different market conditions, so don’t apply a single rule blindly.
