Daily mean of hourly observed 8-hour-equivalent funding, not settled payments or a cashflow sum. Each hour uses the chart's open-interest weighting across Bybit BTC perpetual contracts (a plain mean when no positive OI is available). Stored rates are already normalized; today's settlement interval is not applied again. Coverage counts usable hourly buckets, not every five-minute sample. Missing hours are excluded, not zero.

24 of 24 hours from 2026-11-11 13:00 to 2026-11-12 13:00 UTC have a recorded value. The current, incomplete hour is left out.
Each hour is the last recorded open interest per Bybit BTC perpetual contract within that hour, summed across contracts, exactly as the Bybit open interest chart above is built. A contract missing from an hour is carried forward from its last recorded value for at most four hours, as on the chart. These are recorded samples from Bybit's public API, not a complete census of every open position nor a list of every freshly observed print. An hour without a recorded value is unavailable, not zero, and a change is shown only between two adjacent recorded hours whose earlier value is positive.

How it's counted. Open interest is the USD value of open BTC perpetual positions (one side) at the mark price. Funding is shown as the 8-hour equivalent so exchanges with 1-, 4- and 8-hour settlements compare directly; the interval column gives the current quoted rate for each market's native funding interval. This quote can change before settlement and does not prove a payment already occurred. HIP-3 markets that share the ticker are left out. Coverage: Every liquidation (allLiquidation stream); OI and funding polled every 30s; USDT and inverse perps.
