Bybit Unveils Forex Perpetuals for EURUSD, GBPUSD, and USDJPY
Bybit has expanded its derivatives offerings by introducing USDT-settled perpetual contracts for three major foreign currency pairs. The new products, which track EURUSD, GBPUSD and USDJPY, allow traders to bet on movements in these underlying currencies without taking ownership of them.
The perpetual contracts have no expiration date and offer up to 100x leverage, with profits and losses settled in USDT. Trading is available 24/7, including when the underlying FX markets are closed.
Bybit's TradFi Perpetuals suite now includes over 200 assets spanning equities, commodities, ETFs, and pre-IPO companies. The exchange notes that foreign exchange is the world's largest and most liquid financial market, with global over-the-counter FX turnover averaging $9.6 trillion per day in April.
Bybit is not the first crypto exchange to offer forex perpetuals, as Kraken launched five pairs with up to 50x leverage in April 2025, while BitMEX introduced six pairs with up to 100x leverage in April 2026.
