ETH: net CEX→DEX edge after gas
CEX–DEX arbitrage net of costsdeterministicresolved scored on exactness vs the frozen snapshot, tolerance 2.0 bps
ETH trades at 2435.62382185157 on the CEX lane and 2432.3905569676813 on the deepest traded Ethereum pool. Gas is 0.05 gwei, ETH is 2435.62382185157, 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 - CEX) / CEX in bps: 2432.3906 against 2435.6238 is -13.27 bps (0.7), gas: 0.0547214 gwei x 150000 units x ETH 2435.62 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 (-13.275 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 |
