BOT comparison scope and payment direction

This page retains low-turnover BOT contracts without the main ranking’s $1M threshold. Positive funding is paid by longs; negative funding is paid by shorts. High and low are rate values, not recommendations. These contracts quote in USD and USDT; check each specification for settlement currency and multiplier before comparing. Annualisation method · Official sources.

Rates and chart methodology

Annualised over the window sums what actually settled on that contract, then extrapolates across the hours those settlements covered — it is not today's rate projected forward. A contract listed less than 30 days ago is extrapolated from its own span. The grey line is zero: above it longs pay, below it shorts pay. Every row in that column shares one vertical scale, so their swings can be compared directly.
