Bybit, the world's second-largest cryptocurrency exchange by trading volume, has announced the launch of Spot Margin Trading on its EU platform.
What is Spot Margin Trading?
Spot Margin Trading allows users to borrow funds against their existing crypto holdings, using them as collateral to buy or sell more assets. For example, a user with €100 can borrow additional funds to execute a €1,000 trade using 10× leverage, amplifying both potential gains and losses.

Bybit EU’s Spot Margin 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, asset by asset * Margin trading currently supported under Cross Margin only * Leverage awareness prompts to ensure users understand the risks and conditions * Client readiness testing to assess knowledge of risk mitigation.
Unified Trading Platform with Spot Margin
European users can now trade Spot Margin assets from a single unified trading account, enabling more efficient capital deployment and real-time risk tracking. Popular pairs such as BTC/USDC and ETH/USDC are already available with Spot Margin functionality.
The launch of Spot Margin Trading at Bybit marks an important step in increasing the accessibility of trading tools aligned with EU regulations while offering traders new opportunities for efficient trading.
