## Questions

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

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

HTX at +10.9% a year (0.0100% every 8 h); the lowest is Hyperliquid at −94.6%. A positive rate is paid by longs to shorts, a negative one by shorts to longs.
