AAVE: net CEX→DEX edge after gas
CEX–DEX arbitrage net of costsdeterministicresolved scored on exactness vs the frozen snapshot, tolerance 2.0 bps
AAVE trades at 130.35352225000003 on the CEX lane and 130.38012603952802 on the deepest traded Ethereum pool. Gas is 0.05 gwei, ETH is 2227.45263095, a swap burns 150,000 gas, same chain so no bridge cost. For a 10,000 USD notional, what is the NET edge in basis points (DEX minus CEX, minus gas as bps of notional)? Negative means no trade.

data: cex_px, dex_px, gas_gwei, eth_usd, gas_units, notional_usd, bridge_cost_usd factors: price gap: DEX 130.3801 against CEX 130.3535, (DEX - CEX) / CEX is 2.04 bps (0.7), gas: 0.0467526 gwei x 150000 units x ETH 2227.45 is 0.02 bps of the 10000 USD notional (0.25), bridge cost 0.00 bps (ethereum) (0.05) rejected: the snapshot's naive edge (2.041 bps): the price gap alone, it ignores gas; CEX minus DEX: the puzzle defines the edge as DEX minus CEX, so the sign would flip |
