Bybit, the second-largest cryptocurrency exchange in the world by trading volume, has announced the launch of spot margin trading for European users with leverage up to 10x.
What is Spot Margin Trading?
Spot Margin Trading allows users to borrow funds against their existing crypto holdings, letting them trade larger amounts than their account balance. For instance, a user with €100 can borrow additional funds to execute a €1,000 trade using 10x leverage.
Transparent Risk Management for EU Traders
Bybit EU’s service includes built-in safeguards, such as:
- Liquidation at 100% Maintenance Margin to prevent further losses, - Real-time interest rates, margin requirements, and collateral ratios per asset, - Margin trading currently supported under Cross Margin only, - Leverage awareness prompts to ensure users understand the risks, - Client readiness testing to assess risk mitigation knowledge and liquidation prevention.
Unified Trading in the EU with Margin Trading Feature
European users can now trade Spot Margin assets from a single unified trading account, facilitating more efficient capital deployment and real-time risk tracking. Popular pairs like BTC/USDC and ETH/USDC are already available with Spot Margin functionality.
The launch of Spot Margin Trading reinforces Bybit's position as one of the most trusted and forward-looking exchanges in Europe, compliant with current regulations.
