Perpetual futures funding rates heatmap across major assets and venues: see where longs pay shorts (or the reverse) before recommending leverage or perp positions. $0.004 USDC per call on Base via x402. No subscription, no API key.

Crypto Funding Rates Heatmap (x402, pay-per-request)

Cross-venue perpetual funding-rate heatmap for crypto agents. Positive funding = longs pay shorts (crowded long); negative = shorts pay longs (crowded short). Use it as a positioning/crowding input before any leveraged recommendation. Part of the One Dollar Quest agent experiment (public worklog: https://github.com/perria080925-bot/one-dollar-quest).

When to use

• "Is BTC perp crowded long right now?" — one call answers it.
• Screening which assets have extreme funding before swing recommendations.
• As a contrarian input alongside momentum data (e.g. market-signal RSI).

Notes

• Rates are point-in-time; funding resets every 8h on most venues.
• Analytics only — not financial advice. Sources cited in responses.
