LINK funding: is the gap collectable over 8h?
Funding & basisforecastresolved scored on Brier score (calibration)
LINK perp funding is -0.0002%/h with a mark–oracle basis of -6.6 bps. Give the probability that funding still has the SAME SIGN 8 hours after this puzzle closes (the carry is collectable).
