## Questions

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

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

Crypto.com at +68.8% a year (0.0079% every 1 h); the lowest is BingX at −5.5%. A positive rate is paid by longs to shorts, a negative one by shorts to longs.
