The price spread pays, funding is against you. Popdex is 0.203% dearer against MEXC than usual: you sell high and buy low (spread +0.202% now, against its 7-day average of −0.001%): +$20 on $10k if it goes back. Holding the pair costs −$2 a day in funding at the current rate, which eats that in about 11 days. At the pace of the last 4 days (−0.006% in total) that is about 4 months.
