Funding on Zeta

Funding rates on Zeta are calculated on Zeta approximately every 10 seconds.
Rather than applying funding on a set timer, we apply it to your balance on any balance-sensitive operation (placeOrder, withdraw, liquidate, etc.), as well as every couple of minutes using our cranks.
At any point you can apply any unpaid funding to your account with our SDK's utils.applyPerpFunding() function.
