How to read it

High positive funding means longs are crowded and paying to stay in. It can stay extreme for days, and a flip in sign says positioning changed, not that price will. When funding and open interest rise together, new longs are paying to pile in.

The numbers

The live rate is Hyperliquid's estimate for this hour, updated about once a second. The median and percentile come from the last 7 days of hourly settlements. Annualized is the hourly rate × 24 × 365. Hyperliquid adds a fixed 0.00125% an hour, so a calm market reads slightly positive.

It is Hyperliquid's rate only, never mixed with other venues. The chart's Now panel, where HYPE is on Pro, shows the same number.

Questions.

Is HYPE funding paid every 8 hours?

On Hyperliquid it settles every hour. Many exchanges quote it per 8 hours, so multiply the hourly rate by 8 to compare.

What does negative HYPE funding mean?

The perp trades below spot and shorts pay longs. Shorts are the crowded side, but it isn't a signal on its own.

Is the annualized HYPE funding rate a yield?

No. It assumes this hour's rate holds for a year, which it rarely does.
