BlockBeats reported that,September 28, according to Coinglass data, as Bitcoin weakened again, current mainstream CEX、DEX funding rates show a significant increase in bearish sentiment, with the specific funding rates shown in the accompanying image.

BlockBeats note: Funding rates are rates set by cryptocurrency trading platforms to maintain a balance between the contract price and the price of the underlying asset, typically applying to perpetual contracts. They are a mechanism for the exchange of funds between long and short traders. Trading platforms do not collect this fee; it is used to adjust the cost or return of holding contracts so that the contract price remains close to the price of the underlying asset.

When the funding rate is 0.01%, it represents the baseline rate. When the funding rate is greater than 0.01%, it indicates that the market is broadly bullish. When the funding rate is lower than 0.005%, it indicates that the market is broadly bearish.
