Bybit Launches U.S. Stock and ETF Trading for Global Users
Crypto exchange Bybit now offers access to more than 1,000 U.S.-listed stocks and ETFs, expanding beyond digital assets.
Bybit, the Dubai-based trading platform with a reported user base exceeding 80 million worldwide, announced the addition of U.S. stock and ETF trading to its platform, marking a significant expansion beyond its cryptocurrency roots. Eligible global users can now access more than 1,000 U.S.-listed securities through the same interface they use for digital asset trading.
