Bybit Expands TradFi Horizon: High-Leverage Equity Perpetuals for UiPath and Hut 8 Now Live

Bybit is accelerating its push into traditional markets by introducing new high-leverage trading options for major equity tickers. By integrating synthetic derivatives for companies like UiPath and Hut 8, the exchange is effectively transforming the crypto-trading experience into a 24/7 gateway for global stock speculation.

High Stakes in Synthetic Trading

The newly launched USDT-margined perpetual contracts cover UiPath (PATH), Cypherpunk Technologies (CYPH), and Hut 8 (HUT). Offered through Bybit’s dedicated TradFi perpetuals desk, these instruments allow traders to utilize up to 25x leverage. Unlike traditional stock ownership, these are synthetic derivatives that track equity prices via index and oracle feeds. This means traders do not hold spot shares or gain voting rights, but instead benefit from a high-speed, margin-settled environment similar to Bitcoin futures.

The Rise of the Multi-Asset Crypto Exchange

This launch signals a broader structural shift as crypto venues increasingly adopt perpetual futures as a universal "wrapper" for assets originating outside the blockchain. By moving traditional market speculation into the crypto ecosystem, Bybit offers continuous 24/7 trading that bypasses the restrictive hours of standard stock brokerages. While the convenience and high leverage are significant draws for speculators, the exchange emphasizes that these positions carry a distinct risk profile. Positions are settled entirely within the exchange’s derivative infrastructure, making them distinct from both spot stock trades and tokenized shares.
