We rank cross-exchange funding arbitrage opportunities based on how consistent the funding has been over time Then you can: Compare funding charts side by side See how often net funding flips Run a backtest See example

Prediction market arbitrage has been one of the more interesting strategies lately. Same event, different platforms - different pricing. If YES on one platform + NO on another costs < $1 → the spread is yours. Simple structure: -find identical markets across platforms -compare pricing -open both sides -wait for convergence or resolution Profit is fixed, direction doesn’t matter. The only real constraint is liquidity - not every market can handle size. You can scan these setups manually, but it’s time-consuming. Or just use @bendbasis - we match events across platforms using AI and surface the spreads.

How do you find a funding arbitrage position that stays profitable for at least a week? After trying to earn from funding, seeing 1000%+ APR, entering a trade, losing on fees and slippage, watching funding flip, and exiting - you’ve probably thought: there has to be a way to find something more stable The approach is simple: - Open @bendbasis - Go to the Arbitrage section - Sort by Stability Index This shows pairs where the funding spread has remained consistent over the past 15 days. Then run a backtest on the setups you like to evaluate historical performance based on actual settled funding rates. If a position has remained profitable over the past several days, we can assume there’s a higher chance it will continue.

Prediction market arbitrage is live It’s in beta — still a lot to improve: filters, UI, overall polish. Events are matched using AI: we compare the event itself, resolution conditions, rules, and outcomes across platforms. If the spread > 0 there’s an arbitrage

We track historically actually settled funding rates values • Funding swings and temporary spikes don’t distort the data • You can see how stable a setup actually was over time It also lets you track your positions without connecting API keys across 30+ venues

@SmartDropFarmer Sometimes the fee may be 0%, but you can lose 0.2% of the volume or more on the price spread

Perp farming is still profitable. But only if you stop burning fees. This is the framework I use to farm perp protocols efficiently. MENTALITY –––––––––––––– I’m not trying to farm the most points. I’m trying to farm the cheapest points possible. That means: - delta neutral exposure - minimal trading fees - positive funding when possible - positions that can stay open for weeks The goal: Open positions that cost ~0 to maintain while continuously farming points. PROTOCOLS I FARM (AND WHY) –––––––––––––– 🔹Lighter 0% trading fees (limit + market). I mainly use it to build one side of delta-neutral positions while farming Season 3 points. Most efficient way to farm: Season 3 hasn’t been officially detailed yet, so the optimal strategy is still unclear. 🔹Variational 0% fees. Their system rewards activity in lower open interest tokens, so I mostly trade alt pairs organically here. Most efficient way to farm: • trade lower OI tokens • keep positions open The lower the open interest, the more points you receive. 🔹Extended 0% fees on limit orders. Points reward: • keeping positions open • positive PnL • lower OI pairs You can also earn 10%+ APR on capital used for trading, which helps offset farming costs. Most efficient way to farm: • keep positions open • focus on lower OI pairs 🔹Hibachi 0% fees on limit orders. Useful for executing one side of trades efficiently. Most efficient way to farm: Volume. Market orders generate more points, but limit orders are more cost efficient. 🔹GRVT Taker: 0.037% Limit orders: are not free. They pay you (~0.01%). Personally, I’ve already saved more than $60 just by using limit orders. You can also earn interest on balances used for trading, up to ~11% APR. Most efficient way to farm: - trade altcoins (5x points boost) - maintain open positions 🔹Pacifica Maker: 0.015% Taker: 0.04% Fees exist, but their system heavily rewards open interest. Most efficient way to farm: - maintain open positions - focus on lower OI assets 🔹01 Exchange Maker: 0.01% Taker: 0.035% One of the earliest farming opportunities right now. We’re only around week 5 of the program. Most efficient way to farm: - maintain open positions - focus on lower OI assets TOOLS FOR FINDING FUNDING –––––––––––––– Fundingviewapp and Loris Tools. Both help identify opportunities where funding + points farming can work together. 🔸FundingView I usually analyze funding using different timeframes. Shorter windows show recent spikes, while longer ones help see how consistent the APR has been over time. This helps avoid trades where funding disappears quickly. 🔸Loris Tools Another very useful option. It aggregates more exchanges, making it easier to compare funding opportunities across multiple perp platforms. PRACTICAL EXAMPLE –––––––––––––– Here’s a simplified example of how I find and execute a trade. First, I use Loris Tools. In settings I filter: - Open Interest rank: 10–200 - Minimum APY: 20% Then I sort by OI rank. From there I look for assets with: - decent APR - relatively consistent funding Once I find a candidate, I choose where to execute the trade. The most efficient setup is usually: A DEX with 0% market fees vs A protocol with free or very cheap limit orders. Example setup: GRVT + Variational - Step 1 Place a limit order on GRVT. -Step 2 Once it executes, open the opposite position at market on Variational. This creates a delta-neutral setup where: - you farm points on both protocols - trading fees stay minimal - funding can add extra yield There may be some small slippage. But over time, funding + points + low fees usually compensate for it. Same game. Different approach. Farm smarter. Keep Reading 👇

Example funding arbitrage setup spotted: $NATGAS Long on @MEXC_Official Short on @extendedapp ~58% APR over the past month from the funding spread. The interesting question now: what leverage level keeps the position safe, and what return does that turn into in practice?

@bendbasis damn good idea! gg wp

Backtester that shows real funding actually paid. We calculate: • Real funding payments at each settlement • Actual funding period timing • Spread behavior over time Available in the Backtester section on bendbasis.com

Right now, I’m sitting in a delta-neutral $SOL position yielding 53% APR from funding alone. This is with 2x leverage on each leg. $SOL is significantly less volatile than most low-cap coins, which means you could easily scale up to 4x leverage and potentially double that APR. During strong trends, high quality arbitrage pairs like this pop up everywhere. You can find these opportunities on @bendbasis. The concept is simple: Long on one exchange, Short on another. Your PnL stays close to zero regardless of price action. You collect funding fees the entire time you hold the position. It works in any market condition bull or bear.
