HTX to Update Funding Rate Calculation Formula for USDT-M Futures

Dear HTX Users,

To enhance your trading experience, HTX will adopt a new formula to calculate funding rates in USDT-margined futures trading, starting on November 18 at 6:00 (UTC), 2025. See adjustment details below:

 

Before Update

Funding rate = clamp [Average premium index + clamp (Comprehensive interest rate - Average premium index, Premium deviation cap, Premium deviation floor), Funding rate cap, Funding rate floor]

 

After Update

Funding rate = clamp {[Average premium index + clamp (0.01% - Average premium index, Premium deviation cap, Premium deviation floor)] / (8/N), Funding rate cap, Funding rate floor}

Where:

  • N is the funding interval, taking a positive integer from 1 to 8. For example, if a certain cryptocurrency has a funding interval of 4 hours, then N will be 4.
  • The funding interval is dynamically adjusted and will take effect immediately after the adjustment. For instance, if the current time is 12:30 and the funding interval for a certain cryptocurrency is adjusted from 8 hours to 1 hour, the next funding settlement time will immediately change from 16:00 to 13:00.

 

Thank you for your continued support and trust in HTX.
