Funding pays, the price is against you. ApeX Omni is 0.086% cheaper against Kalshi than usual: you would sell low and buy high (spread −0.036% now, against its 7-day average of +0.050%). If the spread goes back, that is −$9 on $10k: about 11 days of funding at the current rate (+$1 a day). At the pace of the last 7 days (+0.224% in total) that is about 2.7 days. The two prices were read 78 seconds apart, so part of this spread may be the market moving, not a spread.
