Bybit supports stock trading and provides eligible users with access to over 1,000 US stocks globally, as well as ETF.

Dubai, United Arab Emirates, October 13, 2026 / PRNewswire / -- Bybit, this new financial platform that has gained the trust of over 80 million users worldwide, announces that stocks can now be traded through Bybit. As a result, eligible users will have access to more than 1,000 stocks listed in the United States and ETF, including Apple ( AAPL ), NVIDIA ( NVDA ), Tesla ( TSLA ), Micron Technology ( MU ), as well as Invesco QQQ ETF ( QQQ ).

With this expansion, Bybit continues to build upon its multi-asset platform, adding a new entry for trading US stocks in addition to the existing digital assets and traditional market products. Eligible users located within authorized jurisdictions can use USDC to trade supported US stocks and ETF after completing the necessary KYC review.

Bybit, co-founder and CEO, Ben Zhou, stated: "Stocks are an important part of our journey towards developing a new financial platform. The financial market has long been fragmented by various products and platforms, while users increasingly expect a more interconnected experience. With stocks now available through Bybit, what we are doing is not just adding another asset class. We are enabling people to have broader access to the financial market and giving them more freedom to seize opportunities."

Access to US stocks and ETF.

Stock trading enables eligible users to use USDC to buy and sell supported US stocks and ETF, thereby integrating stock positions into the same environment that is also used for digital asset trading. Unlike spread contracts or synthetic tools, stock trading allows eligible users to have economic interests in the underlying assets they purchase.

Orders will be forwarded through the Bybit regulated brokerage infrastructure and executed by Alpaca. Alpaca is a US-based brokerage firm with its own clearing capability and is also a leading global provider of Agent-First infrastructure. In addition, the relevant underlying securities are held in custody by Alpaca.

Alpaca, co-founder and CEO, Yoshi Yokokawa, stated: "Expanding Bybit's services to include US stocks and ETF is an important step towards providing a more comprehensive, multi-asset trading experience for users around the world. We are very pleased to collaborate with Bybit and look forward to jointly shaping the next wave of global market access."

The main functions at startup include:

• Over 1,000 US stocks and ETF, including shares of actively traded companies, with the option for trading in fractional lots for eligible securities.
• Supports USDC transactions, allowing eligible users to directly pay for stock purchases through the Bybit account.
• Direct economic ownership of underlying stocks, rather than replication through derivatives or synthetic prices.
• Users can manage eligible crypto and stock positions within the Bybit ecosystem.
• Support for capital measures, including cash and stock dividends as well as stock splits
• Trading is available 5 days a week, 24 hours a day (24/5), and can be conducted before the U.S. market opens, during regular trading hours, and after market hours, depending on product availability.
• Zero commission – No transaction fees are charged for eligible stock trades.

Eligible users who hold supported US stocks and ETF can obtain economic benefits related to their holdings, including cash and stock dividends, but must comply with the applicable securities and capital measures. Cash dividends will be converted from US dollars to USDC and credited to the user's unified trading account (UTA); stock dividends will be directly added to the user's holdings.

Stock splits will also be reflected in users' holdings according to the corresponding capitalization measures. The voting rights plan will be introduced in a subsequent stage.

Build a more comprehensive multi-asset platform

The launch of stock trading services has expanded the exchange's growing product portfolio, covering both traditional and digital markets. In addition to crypto spot and derivatives trading, Bybit also provides access to traditional markets, tokenized stocks, and TradFi perpetual contracts through its MT5 platform.

Ben added, "We believe that in the next chapter of the financial world, the boundaries between the crypto market and traditional markets will no longer exist. The design of Bybit is to operate in both worlds and to prove that the large-scale tokenization of real-world assets is not a future goal, but something we are achieving today."
