Funding pays, the price is against you. KuCoin is 0.036% cheaper against Kraken Futures than usual: you would sell low and buy high (spread −0.034% now, against its 7-day average of +0.002%). If the spread goes back, that is −$4 on $10k: about 2.2 days of funding at the current rate (+$2 a day). At the pace of the last 7 days (+0.463% in total) that is about 13 hours. The two prices were read 52 seconds apart, so part of this spread may be the market moving, not a spread.
