There are 2 easy ways to earn from trading in crypto with 0 net exposure 1. Buy spot, sell perp - Find an asset that trades on spot and on perps platforms like @QFEX, e.g. gold - Check the perp market for a positive funding rate, meaning that long positions pay short positions, let's use 20% APY as an example - Buy $1,000 gold in spot and short $1,000 in perps and you are now earning $200 or 10% on your capital without exposure to the price movement 2. Buy perp, sell perp - This is the slightly more advanced version of option 1 as it requires more tracking of funding rates - Basically just find an asset that has a large difference in funding rates across two perps platforms - Open a long on the venue with the lower rate and a short on the higher rate, and earn the difference There are lots of tools out there you can use from people like @cryppimagic or @0xLoris
