Funding pays, the price is against you. BloFin is 0.061% cheaper against KuCoin than usual: you would sell low and buy high (spread −0.068% now, against its 7-day average of −0.007%). If the spread goes back, that is −$6 on $10k: about 20 hours of funding at the current rate (+$7 a day). The two prices were read 65 seconds apart, so part of this spread may be the market moving, not a spread.
