Bybit Enters Forex Market with Major Currency Pairs and 100x Leverage
Bybit has expanded its offering of perpetual futures to include major currency pairs. On September 8, 2026, the platform introduced USDT-settled perpetual futures for EUR/USD, GBP/USD, and USD/JPY with up to 100x leverage.
The contracts operate around the clock, including weekends and holidays, and have no expiration date. This allows traders to maintain their positions without needing to transition to new contracts.
The addition of these forex perpetual futures brings Bybit's TradFi Perpetuals offering to over 200 different assets. The platform is now competing with Kraken and BitMEX in providing crypto-based access to the $9.6 trillion daily forex market.
