Bybit expands stablecoin income products as crypto volatility rises

• Bybit adds stablecoin yield tools as crypto volatility rises.
• Exchange plans up to $10 million fixed-income opportunities in March.
• Firm says investors now prioritize capital preservation and yield.

Cryptocurrency exchange Bybit said it is expanding stablecoin-based income opportunities and fixed-return products as digital-asset markets face renewed volatility and falling investor sentiment.

The Dubai-based platform pointed to weakening market confidence, including a sharp pullback in bitcoin and a drop in the Crypto Fear and Greed Index, as a key reason for its latest initiatives.

Rather than reducing activity during uncertain conditions, the company said it intends to broaden earning options and support users seeking more predictable returns.

“We believe stability is what our users want most right now,” said Helen Liu, Co-CEO at Bybit. “The market will recover — we have no doubt about that. But in the meantime, our job is to help ease the pressure, offer real opportunities to earn stable income, and make sure our community knows that Bybit is right here with them.”

Focus on stable income during market uncertainty

Bybit said it has observed how rapidly market sentiment can shift during crypto cycles and how volatility can affect retail investors.

In response, the exchange is accelerating access to yield opportunities tied to stablecoins and introducing tools designed to preserve capital while generating consistent returns.

The company is promoting on-chain yield options, including Mantle Vault, and capital-efficiency tools such as BYUSDT, with the goal of allowing users to earn income without relying on speculative price appreciation.

“We want to find every opportunity for our users to earn stable income,” Liu said. “Whether it is on-chain yield through Mantle Vault or capital efficiency through BYUSDT, the goal is the same — make every dollar work harder so that our community can weather this period with less stress and more confidence.”

According to the company, the current market environment reflects a shift in investor priorities.

Bybit said users increasingly seek capital preservation and steady returns rather than highly leveraged gains.

“This cycle is different. Users are not chasing 100x returns — they are looking to protect capital and generate sustainable yield. That shift is structural, not emotional.”

New fixed-income opportunities planned

The exchange plans to introduce up to $10 million in fixed-income opportunities backed by stablecoins.

The initiative is expected to launch through March and is intended to provide predictable earnings options during periods of heightened volatility.

“Bybit will launch throughout March to offer stablecoin earn to its community. We are here for the industry for the long haul,” Liu said. “We have always believed in supporting our community — through bull markets and bear markets alike.”

The company said the offerings are part of a broader strategy to strengthen its role beyond trading by providing income-oriented financial products during uncertain market conditions.

Community engagement and long-term strategy

Bybit also emphasized continued communication with users and partners, saying transparency and constant engagement are key priorities during turbulent periods.

The exchange stated its teams remain connected around the clock to keep participants informed.

“We support stablecoin initiatives to help alleviate the financial pressure our users face during uncertain times. We invest in CSR and ecosystem development because a thriving industry benefits everyone. This commitment is unwavering — it is fundamental to Bybit’s identity.”

The company said market downturns can define the industry’s resilience and that its strategy is to remain active during challenging conditions while building confidence among users.

Bybit added that its focus is on offering stability and predictable earning opportunities as investors adjust to a more cautious phase in the digital-asset market cycle.
