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 KuCoin LIGHT 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.

How it's counted. Open interest is the USD value of open LIGHT 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: USDT and inverse perps: open interest and funding polled over REST every 60s; KuCoin publishes no liquidation feed.
