Binance will adjust funding rates for perpetual contracts such as XAUUSDT and XAGUSDT.

Notizie in breve

On January 30th, Binance revealed plans to modify the funding fee structure for XAUUSDT, XAGUSDT, and TSLAUSDT perpetual contracts, with changes taking effect at 20:15 UTC+8 on January 30, 2026. Rather than the current four-hour settlement intervals, they're transitioning to an eight-hour cycle. Additionally, funding fee caps for XAUUSDT and XAGUSDT contracts are being substantially reduced from ±0.38% to merely ±0.05%. This adjustment, I believe, will result in considerably smaller funding rate fluctuations for traders moving forward.
