Usually, I have used simple margin, but Binance has raised significantly USDT margin from 0.03% to 0.055000% Last month.
I just search for other alternatives to buy crypto on margin.
Is there any good site that comperes margins on-line? There are big difference between 20+ or 10% interest rate yearly basis.
Seems like futures is good for trading not holding, because they take after 8 hours great chunk of commissions.
You actually do not pay maintenance fees if you're using futures contracts on a site like Bitmex, which is why there tends to be a premium on the futures contracts on Bitmex when the maintenance fees for longs starts getting higher which generally decreases when maintenance fees go down for longs. Some other negatives of futuresare that the Bitmex ones are issued quarterly and expire, and there tends to be lower volume on the futures on Bitmex compared to the perpetual contracts, but if you're not holding a position for an extremely long time then it's something to consider.
