ARK right now

ARK is cheapest on MEXC ($0.17959) and dearest on WhiteBIT ($0.17975): 0.09% apart across 5 exchanges with a liquid spot market, before fees.

1 route in profit after fees is worth a look ("take" or "risky"); the best: MEXC → Bybit, 0.52%.

Over 7 days a spread in profit opened 6,470 times, and 3,246 of them lasted a minute or longer; one usually closed within 1 min 09 s.

Funding per 8 hours runs from −0.8048% on Gate to 0.0100% on Bybit, across 10 exchanges (outliers, markets under $50k a day and exchanges publishing no volume left out).

ARK arbitrage strategy

No ARK route worth taking with an open transfer right now. Gaps of a minute or longer open several times a week, though — here is how to catch the next one:

  1. Watch Gate → Binance: the spread opened there 101 times in 7 days, 53 of them for a minute or longer; it usually lasts 1 min 03 s.
  2. The transfer is ready: ARK moves from Gate to Binance on ARK. Keep USDT on Gate and ARK on Binance so you do not wait for it.
  3. Set an alert on the route: you hear when the spread pays after fees. Then buy on Gate and sell on Binance.

FAQ

Why is the ARK spread so high on some exchanges?

1 route in profit after fees is worth a look ("take" or "risky"); the engine's commonest warnings: the current rate is far above what the pair earned over the past days: likely a one-off spike; under $20 at the best price. We have no network status from Tokocrypto, WEEX and Crypto.com, so a transfer there cannot be checked.

Where is ARK cheapest to buy?

Cheapest now on MEXC: $0.17959; dearest on WhiteBIT: $0.17975, 0.09% apart. 5 exchanges with a liquid ARK market compared, at the mid between bid and ask.

Can I transfer ARK between MEXC and WhiteBIT?

Yes: withdrawals from MEXC and deposits to WhiteBIT are open now on ARK, a withdrawal fee of 0.2 ARK. The networks' status is checked every 5 minutes; every network is in the table below.

Is there an arbitrage opportunity in ARK right now?

Yes, in futures (no transfer: a long and a short): 1 route is worth a look ("take" or "risky"), the first MEXC → Bybit, 0.50%, marked "risky".

Not on spot after fees: no spot route earns right now. The widest price gap is 0.09% (MEXC → WhiteBIT), and trading fees and the withdrawal eat it. In 7 days, gaps of a minute or longer opened most often between Gate and Binance: 53 times.

What is the ARK spread now?

0.09% between the cheapest (MEXC) and the dearest (WhiteBIT) exchange, before fees. No route worth taking with an open transfer right now.
