Not at $10,000 per side for 7 days: no KAS 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 KAS funding rate?**

Kraken at +85.4% a year (0.0097% every 1 h); the lowest is Hyperliquid at +10.9%. A positive rate is paid by longs to shorts, a negative one by shorts to longs.
