Bybit Launches 10x Spot Margin Trading for European Users

What You Need to Know

Bybit EU is offering spot margin trading for European clients with leverage up to 10x, following the area’s Markets in Crypto Assets (MiCA) regulations.
This service includes safeguards, such as liquidation controls and real-time metrics for interest rates, margin requirements, and collateral ratios.

According to Bybit, their platform now empowers users to borrow funds against existing crypto assets, enabling them to engage in larger trades than what their current wallet balance would allow.

Example of Use:

A user with $100 could borrow additional funds, enabling them to perform a trade valued at $1,000 using 10x leverage, magnifying potential gains and losses from minor market fluctuations.

This expansion within Europe’s MiCA regulatory framework has prompted firms like Bitpanda (also regulated by the Austrian Financial Market Authority) to launch similar offerings.

Bybit has built-in features designed to prevent excessive losses, including liquidation controls, while offering real-time insights into the required margins and interest rates based on asset performance.

In a statement, Mazurka Zeng, CEO of Bybit EU, mentioned: “Spot Margin Trading is a powerful tool — but only when paired with transparency, risk education, and user control.”
