Questions
Is KSTR funding-rate arbitrage profitable right now?
Not right now. At $10,000 per side for 7 days the best KSTR pair (Hyperliquid / LBank) would net +$65.33 after taker fees, order-book slippage and carry, but it is on watch rather than actionable; the live page shows what holds it back.
Which exchange has the highest KSTR funding rate?
HTX at +10.9% a year (0.0100% every 8 h); the lowest is Hyperliquid at −193.2%. A positive rate is paid by longs to shorts, a negative one by shorts to longs.
