What Are BONK Perpetual Futures?

BONK perpetual futures are leveraged derivatives that allow traders to go long or short on Bonk (BONK) without holding the token directly.

  • Long BONK Perpetual: Profit when BONK price rises.

  • Short BONK Perpetual: Profit when BONK price falls.

Unlike traditional dated futures, BONK perpetuals never expire. Instead, they use hourly funding payments exchanged between long and short traders to keep prices aligned with BONK’s global spot market.

BONK Perpetual Funding Rate Explained

PowerTrade’s BONK funding rate ensures perpetual contract prices stay in line with the BONK/USDC Index, derived from CoinGecko.

Funding Rate Formula:

F = P + clamp(I – P, +0.05%, –0.05%)

Where:

  • P (Premium Index): Difference between the perpetual price and index price.

  • I (Interest Rate): 0.01% per 8 hours (applied hourly).

  • Clamp: Restricts funding rate changes within ±0.05% to maintain balance.

Funding is applied hourly, only to positions open at settlement. Positions closed before funding time do not pay funding fees.

BONK/USDC Index Price Methodology

The BONK/USDC Index Price represents Bonk’s fair global market value against USDC, using aggregated real-time spot prices from CoinGecko’s composite exchange feed.

📊 Reference Source: Bonk (BONK) on CoinGecko

Purpose of the Index

The index ensures mark prices and liquidation levels reflect global BONK market averages, not the volatility of a single venue. This approach protects traders from manipulation and ensures fair pricing across all PowerTrade perpetual markets.

Index Construction

CoinGecko’s BONK index aggregates BONK/USDC (or equivalent) spot prices from top-tier exchanges, weighting each source by:

  • 24-hour trading volume and liquidity depth

  • Exchange reliability and uptime

  • Price consistency vs. global average

Stale or outlier prices are automatically excluded. PowerTrade uses this verified feed to derive its mark price and funding rate calculations.

Fallback Mechanism

If CoinGecko’s feed becomes unavailable, PowerTrade automatically switches to an internal pre-market index derived from BONK perpetual order book bid/ask data. This ensures continuous mark pricing and fair liquidation even during data interruptions.

Mark Price and Liquidation Logic

PowerTrade’s mark price mechanism smooths short-term volatility to ensure fair and accurate PnL and liquidation calculations.

Mark Price = Index Price + EMA(Market Price – Index Price)

  • The EMA (Exponential Moving Average) over a 15-second window filters short-term price noise.

  • This minimizes unnecessary liquidations during volatile trading conditions.

PnL Formulas:

  • Long BONK: PnL = Position Size × (Mark Price – Entry Price)

  • Short BONK: PnL = Position Size × (Entry Price – Mark Price)

Liquidation Trigger: Account Balance + Unrealized PnL ≤ Maintenance Margin

When triggered:

  1. All open orders are canceled.

  2. Positions are closed at market.

  3. PowerTrade’s insurance fund and auto-deleveraging (ADL) systems ensure market stability.
