1/ gTrade v10 is launching next week! đ
Welcome to our new spotlight series breaking down the biggest upgrade of the year.
First up: Funding fees and the velocity model.
2/ Funding fees replace borrowing rates đ
With v10, major crypto pairs will transition to a smoother, market-driven funding fee model â a major upgrade from the existing borrowing fee system.
This opens the door for mid to long-term traders and funding fee farmers â without sacrificing the experience for scalpers and short-term traders.
At launch, only major crypto markets will adopt funding fees. That means gTrade will now support two market types:
1ïžâŁ Funding fee-driven: dynamic rates enable both long-term directional plays and short-term entries, with more predictable holding costs.
2ïžâŁ Borrowing fee-driven: unchanged for now â ideal for scalping, high leverage, and degen-style setups.
Clear structure, better strategy fits.
See all funding-fee pairs at launch below:
3/ The Velocity Model đ§
No more sudden fee spikes â funding rates will evolve with a time-weighted skew using a velocity model.
Rates adjust progressively based on long / short imbalance. The greater the skew, the faster the change.
This creates a smoother, more predictable trading environment â ideal for directional traders and those farming skew.
4/ Hedge with gTrade v10 đ
