Bybit, the world's second-largest cryptocurrency exchange by trading volume, has launched an exclusive derivatives trading challenge featuring USDT—the leading USD-denominated stablecoin—with a substantial prize pool of 500,000 USDT.

From now to Mar. 31, participants may sign up for the event and start accumulating eligible trading volume in USDT derivatives products on Bybit. The more they trade, the larger their share of the prize pool.

"This Bybit-exclusive trading challenge demonstrates USDT's instrumental role in powering sophisticated trading opportunities that were once limited to traditional finance. By fusing Bybit's professional-grade trading infrastructure with USDT's stability, we're empowering traders to unleash their full potential and earn additional rewards while navigating the dynamic world of derivatives trading," said Joan Han, Sales and Marketing Director at Bybit.

With a market cap exceeding $140 billion, USDT has held its throne as the most traded stablecoin since its launch in 2014. By maintaining a steady one-to-one peg with the US dollar, USDT is blockchain's answer to the need for a stable, borderless medium of exchange. In the fast-moving derivatives markets, USDT offers a trusted anchor for agile trading strategies with the reliability of the US dollar. The central role of USDT in this trading challenge reflects both its dominance in the digital economy and its success in expanding access to sophisticated trading instruments like options and futures, particularly in regions underserved by traditional financial infrastructure.
