Statistics use one value per venue (the median if a venue lists several contracts), skip closed markets, GMX (pool-skew funding with a separate borrowing fee) and markets routed to Hyperliquid (they would double count Hyperliquid). Every row is still shown in the table below.
Aster (ASTER) funding rates by venue
Every ASTER market in the latest snapshot, highest 8h rate first. Rate per interval is the amount paid at each settlement; Updated is when that venue was last fetched successfully (a stale flag means the latest fetch failed); 1h, 8h and APR are normalised so venues with different intervals compare directly. See the Hyperliquid funding rates page for core and HIP-3 markets.

What does Aster (ASTER) funding cost?
Worked example for a $10,000 long held for 1 day and 7 days, using each rate from the table above as if it stayed constant (it will not). Funding is charged on notional, not margin.
| Scenario | 8h rate | 1 day | 7 days |
|---|---|---|---|
| Median (8 venues) | 0.0100% | $3.00 paid | $21.00 paid |
| Highest: Aster | 0.0216% | $6.47 paid | $45.27 paid |
| Lowest: dYdX | 0.0000% | $0.00 | $0.00 |
Cross-venue spread idea
In principle a trader could go long where funding is lowest (dYdX) and short where it is highest (Aster) and collect the difference. At the current rates, $10,000 on each side would be a net $6.47 received per day before costs.
Caveat: this is an illustration, not advice. Real results depend on trading fees, price basis between the two contracts, different settlement intervals (a rate can change before you are paid), margin on both venues, liquidation risk on either leg, and funding changing sign. The funding rate arbitrage scanner ranks these gaps across every asset and explains the risks.

Aster (ASTER) perp market in numbers
Open interest reported to this feed totals $23.3M: Hyperliquid $23.2M (100%), GMX $19K (<1%) and dYdX $7K (<1%). That ranks ASTER #26 of the 30 coin pages on this site by reported open interest. Venues that do not publish open interest in their funding endpoint are missing from this total, so the market-wide figure is higher. Where most open interest sits is where funding payments are largest in dollar terms.
7 of 8 venues used in the statistics show positive funding (longs pay) and 0 negative. The median is 0.0100% per 8h (10.9500% APR), which is close to the 0.0100% per 8h interest component many venues build into their formula. The highest reading is Aster at 0.0216% and the lowest dYdX at 0.0000%, a spread of 0.0216% per 8h. For comparison, the Bitcoin spread in the same snapshot is 0.0206%, so ASTER is 1.0 times as dispersed.
Settlement schedules differ: Aster, Binance, Bybit, OKX and edgeX settle every 4 hours; Hyperliquid, Lighter and dYdX settle hourly; Aster settles every 8 hours; GMX accrues continuously. The 1h, 8h and APR columns normalise them, but a venue that settles every 4 or 8 hours can change its rate before the next payment.

If fewer than 3 venues list ASTER, this page is taken out of search indexes until coverage recovers.
