Cryptocurrency exchange Bybit has announced a strategic partnership with an affiliate of Circle to drive the global adoption and utility of the USDC stablecoin. The agreement focuses on strengthening USDC liquidity across Bybit’s spot and derivatives markets, aiming to create a more efficient trading environment for its extensive user base. This move aligns with Bybit’s goal of enhancing its platform’s regulatory compliance and market stability.
The collaboration will also see an expansion of USDC integration across Bybit’s product suite, including Bybit Earn for savings, Bybit Card for rewards, and Bybit Pay for daily transactions. Furthermore, the partnership includes integrating Circle’s infrastructure to improve fiat on- and off-ramp solutions, which will streamline deposits and withdrawals for users converting between local currencies and digital assets in key markets.
This strategic move follows Bybit’s recent regulatory expansion, including securing a full Virtual Asset Platform Operator License from the UAE’s Securities and Commodities Authority. The partnership with Circle, a key player in regulated digital finance, underscores Bybit’s commitment to responsible innovation and bridging traditional finance with the digital asset economy using a fully reserved, transparent stablecoin.
