The Booster event will announce the rewards in 2 days. Seeing the good returns, I was planning to hedge to protect the profits. But after checking the funding rate, I was immediately discouraged—those numbers are no different from -2%, which is really ironic. The cost of hedging is so high that rather than locking in profits, it's better to let the market move freely. Watching U flow in the account with my own eyes, my mindset collapsed. Only then did I realize that in certain market environments, the funding rate itself is the biggest opponent for traders. It's much more complicated than I imagined. Forget it, I'll just continue holding and see how the market develops.

Funding rate, this thing is just here to harvest, nothing else.

Funding rate really is unbelievable; losing half of the profit is still a waste of effort.

Funding rate immediately breaks the defense when looked at directly, this is the market teaching us how to behave.

Funding rate is really outrageous, -2% is just nonsense for hedging, might as well go all in.

Such outrageous fees, what's the point of hedging? You're just losing out directly.

Funding rate this thing is really incredible; hedging actually results in even greater losses.

Funding rates are really outrageous. Instead of losing fees, might as well gamble on the trend—anyway, it's all about raising blood pressure.
