Bybit, the world’s second-largest cryptocurrency exchange, has launched two major promotional campaigns simultaneously, offering crypto enthusiasts the chance to earn through holding the USD1 stablecoin and to compete for a $202,000 USDT prize pool by trading both traditional and crypto assets.
USD1 Hold & Earn Enters Second Month
The USD1 Hold & Earn event has been extended into its second month, running from June 18 to July 17, 2026. Eligible Bybit users who maintain USD1 balances in their accounts can earn daily rewards from a total pool of 40,000,000 WLFI, the governance token of World Liberty Financial. The campaign requires no staking, lock-up periods, or manual subscriptions — simply holding USD1 qualifies users. Hourly snapshots of balances are taken to calculate daily distributions, and a leaderboard tracks the top 50 holders.
USD1 is a fully collateralized stablecoin issued by World Liberty Financial, backed 1:1 by short-term U.S. Treasury securities and cash equivalents. The WLFI token rewards are designed to broaden participation in decentralized finance. Terms and conditions apply, with full details on the Bybit event page.
Global Assets Trading Fest Offers $202,000 in USDT
Running concurrently until July 16, 2026, the Global Assets Trading Fest invites users to compete across two leaderboards — TradFi and Crypto — each with a $101,000 prize pool. The top trader on each board can win up to $20,000 in USDT. The TradFi leaderboard includes precious metals, commodities, oil, forex, indices, and stock CFDs. The Crypto leaderboard counts volume from eligible spot and perpetual futures pairs, including xStocks such as NVDAX/USDT and TSLAX/USDT, plus real-world asset (RWA) markets like ONDO/USDT and XAUT/USDT. Trading bots and copy trading also contribute.
Participants must register on the event page and complete Identity Verification Level 1. Zero-fee pairs are excluded from volume calculations, and any wash trading or manipulation will result in disqualification. Rewards are paid to Spot Accounts within 20 working days after the event. Institutional users and market makers are not eligible.
Both campaigns underline Bybit’s push to bridge traditional finance and DeFi, giving its 80-million-strong user base diverse earning and trading opportunities.
