Cross Exchange Funding

GET/v1/cryptodata/derivatives/funding-rates

Funding rates for ONE coin across Binance + Hyperliquid. Per-coin by design (`?coin=`, default BTC). The public /funding-rates board lists every Hyperliquid perp; for that universe over REST use `GET /api/v1/hyperliquid/open-interest` (`assets[].funding_rate`). `hyperliquid.history_count` is the number of recent HL settlements fetched alongside the live rate. Read it with `history_status`: `ok` (history present), `warming` (the fetch is still running — retry in a few seconds; the live `current_rate` is unaffected), `unavailable` (HL returned nothing, or the coin is not an HL perp). `0` with `warming` is not a stuck feed.
