Binance confirms that from January 2, 2026, funding rate settlements for USDⓈ-M perpetual contracts will revert to four-hourly intervals under specific low-volatility conditions.
According to Binance’s official statement, starting January 2, 2026, USDⓈ-M perpetual contract funding rate settlements will be adjusted based on volatility. If the hourly absolute funding rate remains at or below 0.025% for 16 consecutive hours, the settlement frequency will change from hourly to every four hours beginning in the 17th period. This change is designed to match settlement intervals with stable market conditions.
