Bybit Launches BYUSDT for Tokenized Margin Trading with USDT
Dubai-based exchange Bybit has launched BYUSDT, a new token for margin trading that tokenizes USDT Flexible Easy Earn balances while generating daily yield.
- BYUSDT allows Bybit VIP account holders to tokenize their staked USDT holdings for 1:1 margin trading.
- Users can swap between BYUSDT and USDT Flexible Easy Earn accounts without fees, with hourly reward accruals and daily payouts.
- The product enhances capital efficiency, allowing users to earn yields from staked USDT and engage in market trading simultaneously.
DeFi-style Margin Trading
- BYUSDT is unique among centralized exchanges for integrating with Bybit's staking rewards program.
- It offers more comprehensive integration than similar programs like Kraken's Rewards, which only apply to specific types of rewards.
Bybit's Focus on Stablecoins
- Bybit is investing heavily in the stablecoin market, providing extended utility to Tether holders.
- A strategic partnership with Circle aims to enhance USDC liquidity and integration across Bybit's services.
