As detailed in a recent official announcement, Binance is set to modify the funding rate settlement frequency for the BANUSDTU perpetual contract on February 26, 2025, at 12:00 PM Beijing Time. The change will transition the funding rate settlement from a bi-hourly to a quad-hourly schedule, specifically at 12:00, 16:00, 20:00, and midnight the following day, Beijing Time. This strategic adjustment aligns with Binance’s ongoing efforts to optimize the trading experience for users engaged in the BANUSDTU perpetual contract, having already implemented enhancements to leverage, maintenance margin tiers, and settlement frequencies earlier this month on February 12, 2025. This move is expected to provide a more flexible trading environment for all participants involved in the BANUSDTU market.
