Bybit launched a new platform on 16 June with which users can trade gold, Forex, Shares -CFDS, global indices and raw materials directly within his app, a first for every major crypto exchange.
The launch of Bybit Tradfi is expanding the company’s offer outside of digital assets and positions it as a full-service financial hub focused on bridging the gap between traditional and emerging markets.
According to Bybit, the service gives its 70 million users access to the five largest global markets without the need for individual software installations, such as Metatrader 5, which is often needed for traditional assets trade.
Bybit CEO and co-founder Ben Zhou said:
“Investors are looking for opportunities, and some old barriers between emerging and traditional financial markets are only artificial. Bybit Tradfi represents our dedication to break down these walls.”
Multi-market access
With Bybit Tradfi, traders can manage crypto and traditional assets of a single account and wallet, so that cross-market strategies are streamlined and the number of intermediaries is reduced.
The platform contains direct trade for major stock CFDs, including popular names such as Apple, Amazon, Tesla and Google.
Bybit said that the step reflects a broader trend from crypto-native companies that enter the traditional financial arena to meet the rising demand for portfolio diversification in the midst of macroeconomic uncertainty.
The Gold & FX Pilot Service of the company, launched earlier this year, registered a daily trade volume record of $ 24 billion on 17 April.
To encourage adoption, Bybit offers a 50% discount on shares CFD transactions for eligible users up to and including 23 June.
The service is powered by Infra Capital, licensed under Mauritius FSC, but is not available in the European Economic Environment and other limited areas of law.
2025 Road map
In March, Bybit, an extensive strategy of 2025 focused on strengthening its position as a hybrid financial hub. The plan included scaling back some of his web3 services while they expand to Legacy Finance.
The plan includes the integration of traditional financing products such as Treasury Bills in Bybit Earn, launching new residual strike and Defi tools, improving portfolio protection and usability and rolling out a web3 points Rewards program to stimulate user involvement.
The route map also emphasized the expansion of solutions for assets management on chains and strengthening the relationship between centralized and decentralized services.
Bybit experienced a record growth in 2024, three -time its user base up to more than 60 million and reached an average daily trade volume of $ 36 billion during the year.
