ByBit Pioneers Direct Stock Trading Using Stablecoins

Bybit, the world's second-largest crypto exchange by trading volume, has introduced direct trading of global stocks using USDT, marking a significant step in bridging traditional and decentralised finance.
The new service, part of Bybit's expanding Gold & Forex (MT5) product suite, enables users to trade 78 major global equities—including Apple (AAPL),Tesla(AAPL), Tesla ( AAPL),Tesla(TSLA), Meta (META),Nvidia(META), Nvidia ( META),Nvidia(NVDA), and Amazon ($AMZN)—directly with the USDT stablecoin.
With this launch, Bybit has become the first major cryptocurrency exchange to unify crypto, stocks, and traditional assets under one platform, allowing traders to move between different asset classes using a single account and wallet.
"Whether you're chasing earnings, hedging exposure, or responding to global macro shifts, this upgrade delivers crypto-native speed, simplicity, and flexibility to global markets," the company stated in its announcement.
The service expansion means users can now access traditional markets like stocks, gold, oil, indices, and forex without the need for fiat currency onboarding or leaving the crypto ecosystem.
To celebrate the launch, Bybit is running a "Wall Street meets Web3" promotion from June 2 to June 15, offering all users a 50% discount on trading fees for stock trades made through its Gold & FX platform.
Founded in 2018, Bybit serves a global community of over 70 million users.
