Bybit, a cryptocurrency exchange with one of the largest BTC futures open interest, is settling its options trading market in one of the world’s most trusted stablecoins: USDC.
Unlike bitcoin-settled contracts, Bybit’s use of USDC allows for stable prices for the duration of each contract.
Users of Bybit’s European-style, USDC-settled options will also benefit from the newly-launched unified margin account, which offers a completely new derivatives trading structure. Users can use all assets under their account as collateral to trade USDC options contracts as well as perpetuals.
Bybit’s portfolio margin account supports USDT, USDC, BTC and ETH as collateral, with more assets to be added soon. These functions cement Bybit’s reputation as a fully integrated trading powerhouse, with a dedicated dual server system that ensures 99.9% uptime.
