India, August 8th, 2025: Bybit, the second-largest cryptocurrency exchange in the world by trading volume, unveiled a revolutionary roadmap for the future of digital finance at its star-studded event, “Keynote with Ben: Reshaping What’s Next, Bit by Bit.” This session, led by CEO and Co-founder Ben Zhou, showcased the company’s renewed focus on innovation, security, compliance, and institutional-grade innovations.
In a significant development for the Indian market, Bybit has officially secured registration with the Financial Intelligence Unit (FIU-India) in the first half of 2025, enabling the platform to fully resume operations in the country. This milestone follows the company’s broader alignment with the EU’s Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (MiCAR) by reaffirming its compliance-first approach.
The company also set a new benchmark in crypto security following a sophisticated multi-stage attack on one of its vendors in February. While Bybit’s infrastructure remained uncompromised, the company acted swiftly in response. Within weeks, it completed nine extensive security audits, conducted by both internal and independent experts, and implemented over 50 new security safeguards.
On the performance front, Bybit continues to lead in performance and reliability. Its upgraded matching engine now handles 3.5 million transactions per second, processing nearly 200 billion daily orders, a 75% year-over-year increase in the first half of 2025. The platform has also expanded its Rapid Price Improvement (RPI) mechanism to perpetual contracts, providing 150% higher liquidity and up to 5x better execution across retail and VIP accounts as the go-to destination for professional traders. Additionally, the company has introduced a new wealth management offering that has already surpassed $150 million in Assets Under Management (AUM), providing curated portfolios and tailored services to high-net-worth and institutional clients.
The event concluded with the major announcement of deepened strategic alignment with Mantle, aimed at shaping the future of a bold new chapter in institutional-grade on-chain finance. With Mantle 2.0 on the horizon, Bybit’s leadership will support the development of a scalable, compliance-first DeFi ecosystem.
“Crypto is no longer just about speculation, it’s about real-world application. At Bybit, we’re not just trading the future; we’re rewriting and reshaping what success looks like, bit by bit,” said Ben Zhou, CEO and Co-founder of Bybit. We believe crypto should be usable, secure, and powerful enough to serve everyone, from first-time users to institutional investors. Sustainability in crypto begins with trust and transparency, and compliance is the foundation that will drive long-term growth. Introducing the new Bybit Card, a crypto-native business tool integrating Visa and Mastercard, and Bybit Lite, a simplified app experience designed to unlock passive income for casual users. With expansion into India on the horizon.
