ZEC perpetuals — common questions
Answered from this pair's current readings, refreshed with the daily sync.
What are ZEC's current liquidation levels?
On Hyperliquid, where ZEC whale positions are visible address by address, the nearest tracked liquidation sits 38.7% below the $1125 Hyperliquid mark and would force-close $9.56M of long exposure. Across the exchanges we aggregate, $7.09M of ZEC positions were actually liquidated in the last 24 hours.
How much open interest does ZEC have right now?
Aggregated open interest in ZEC perpetuals is $863.09M: $578.29M on Binance (67%), $201.86M on Bybit (23%) and $82.94M on KuCoin (10%). That position base is +0.5% over 24 hours and -8.8% over the last week. Open interest is 0.41× the pair's 24-hour volume, so positions are turning over faster than the book itself.
What is ZEC's funding rate?
Binance settles ZECUSDT funding at -0.0086% every 8 hours, which annualises to roughly -9.4%. Funding is negative, so shorts are paying longs — the crowd is leaning short and paying to stay there. At that rate a $10,000 position on the short side pays about $2.57 a day to stay open.
Are whales long or short ZEC?
Among the ~500 largest Hyperliquid accounts we track, 29 hold positions of $100k or more in ZEC: $26.84M long across 12 and $105.05M short across 17 — a net $78.21M short. At the start of the tracked week that net figure was $76.92M short. These are real on-chain positions read off Hyperliquid, not a model output — roughly a third of Binance USDT-perps have a Hyperliquid market, and ZEC is one of them.
Is ZEC over-leveraged right now?
ZEC's leverage-stress score is 0.258 out of 1.0, which we band as medium risk. It blends three readings: how big the perp book is next to the token itself ($19.62B of market cap against $863.09M of open interest), how violently open interest is swinging against the funding rate, and how much of the book is already being force-closed ($7.09M in the last 24 hours). A high score means fragile, not bearish: it says a move would be violent, not which way it would go.
Has ZEC seen heavy liquidations lately?
Over the last 30 complete days, 32% of the ZEC notional that got liquidated was long positions and 68% was shorts, so the pain has been mostly on the short side. The most recent 24-hour total ranks in the 88th percentile of the last 90 days, meaning today is unusually heavy for this pair. The mirrored bar chart on this page plots the daily long/short split for the past year.
ZEC/USDT (ZECUSDT) perpetual futures shows a leverage-stress score of 0.258 out of 1.0 (medium risk), $863.09M in aggregated open interest across Binance, Bybit, KuCoin, a funding rate of -0.0086% as of Sep 15, 2026. These are diagnostic readings of market conditions, not a trade signal.
