Why this route matters
Arbitrex watches every market KuCoin and OKX list — not a curated top-100. That is what makes this route worth opening: the widest divergences rarely sit on BTC, they appear on the thinner coin both venues happen to list, where one book reprices minutes after the other.
Arbitrage types between KuCoin and OKX
| Type | How it works |
|---|---|
| F/F Futures-Futures | Go long on whichever venue prices the perp lower and short the expensive one — between KuCoin and OKX. Profit comes from the spread converging, not from market direction. |
| S/F Spot-Futures | Buy the asset on the spot market and short the perpetual on KuCoin or OKX. You earn the basis premium while the price stays fully hedged. |
| FR Funding Rate | Funding rates on KuCoin and OKX drift apart. Long where the rate is lower, short where it is higher: you collect the difference up to 3 times a day, delta-neutral. |
