The price spread pays, funding is against you. Aster is 0.469% dearer against Lighter than usual: you sell high and buy low (spread +0.469% now, against zero (this spread has no 7-day history yet)): +$47 on $10k if it goes back. Holding the pair costs −$1 a day in funding at the current rate, which eats that in about 3 months.
