## Questions

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

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

OKX at +100.4% a year (0.0917% every 8 h); the lowest is Gate at 0.0%. A positive rate is paid by longs to shorts, a negative one by shorts to longs.
