## Questions

**Is AAVE funding-rate arbitrage profitable right now?**

Not at $10,000 per side for 7 days: no AAVE pair shows a verified profit after fees and order-book slippage right now. Rates change every hour; the live page re-ranks continuously.

**Which exchange has the highest AAVE funding rate?**

BloFin at +12.3% a year (0.0112% every 8 h); the lowest is Crypto.com at −11.9%. A positive rate is paid by longs to shorts, a negative one by shorts to longs.
