Bybit Launches 200,000 USDT Spot Trading Competition for BTC, ETH, SOL
Bybit's two-week Spot Trading Arena runs July 9–23, 2026, offering 200,000 USDT in prizes across multiple cryptocurrencies.
Bybit, the world's second-largest cryptocurrency exchange by trading volume, launched its Spot Trading Arena on July 9, 2026, kicking off a two-week global competition with a total prize pool of 200,000 USDT. The Dubai-based exchange confirmed the event runs until July 23, 2026, at 10 a.m. UTC, giving traders roughly 14 days to compete across supported spot markets.
The competition covers several of the most actively traded digital assets, including Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, and HYPE, among others. By targeting spot markets rather than derivatives, Bybit is positioning the event as accessible to a broader range of traders who prefer direct asset ownership over leveraged contracts.
