Bybit Arbitrage is a trading tool that simplifies arbitrage trading by capitalizing on funding rate and price differences.

If you're seeking consistent returns with minimal risk, Bybit Arbitrage is the perfect ally.

 This robust tool empowers you to generate regular profits with minimal risks by capitalizing on price disparities across different markets. Its user-friendly interface lets you easily spot and exploit these differences, so that you can execute flawless arbitrage trading in the crypto market with confidence. Read on to learn how Bybit Arbitrage makes arbitrage trading an effortless way for you to achieve low-risk gains.

 is the buying and selling of the same or similar asset(s) at the same time across different markets to earn from slight price deviations. This act of purchasing an asset at a fixed price — while simultaneously selling it at a higher price — allows a trader to instantly make profits without any risks. 

While arbitrage trading has long been a staple in traditional financial markets, such as stock and forex, the advent of crypto trading has propelled arbitrage trading to new heights — thanks to the heightened volatility of the crypto market. Additionally, unlike traditional stock markets, crypto markets are traded 24/7, offering more opportunities for arbitrage traders to reap profits from the price gaps across exchanges and markets. 

 across exchanges or within a single exchange. Keep in mind that if you opt to arbitrage trade across different platforms, accessing your profits may prove to be complex, due to the need to transfer your assets between the exchanges, which can take up to several days to complete. On the other hand, arbitrage trading on a single platform is more straightforward — but more competitive as well.

There are multiple arbitrage trading strategies, but the most common ones in the crypto market include funding rates arbitrage, spot-futures arbitrage and futures arbitrage. 

Funding rates arbitrage allows traders to profit from variations in funding rates between 

 contracts. In contrast, spot-futures arbitrage enables traders to profit from price disparities between the spot and 

 for the same asset. Meanwhile, futures arbitrage involves profiting from price discrepancies between futures contracts with different expiration dates.

Bybit Arbitrage is a trading tool that helps traders identify arbitrage trading opportunities in two ways: funding rate and spread. 

The user-friendly interface organizes trading pairs based on either funding rates or spreads in different markets, so that traders can easily spot disparities in funding rate or price across the markets at a glance. 

Bybit Arbitrage is exclusively available to 

 mode. It facilitates arbitrage trading for USDT Perpetual, USDC Perpetual and USDC Futures contracts, thereby allowing you to enjoy arbitrage trading opportunities between USDT 

Spot pairs and USDT Perpetual pairs, or USDC Spot pairs and USDC Perpetual/Futures pairs. 

The Funding Rate Arbitrage feature exploits differences in funding rates between the Spot and Perpetual/Futures markets on the Bybit exchange. With the Funding Rate feature, traders can earn funding fees while simultaneously managing their positions in order to minimize potential losses and maximize gains through positive and negative arbitrage strategies.

Funding rates for the different trading pairs are listed in descending order. This helps traders to easily leverage the interest rate differential between Spot and Perpetual/Futures contracts.

The Funding Rate feature also allows you to 

 orders (with the same amount, but in different directions) in both Spot and Perpetual/Futures, which enables you to earn funding fees while mitigating potential losses (with potential gains).

holders in Futures/Perpetual contracts pay short position holders. You can leverage this situation by executing a positive arbitrage, which involves

 buying a Spot pair and taking a short position in 

Perpetual to earn steady funding fees. Alternatively, if the funding fee is negative, short position holders pay long position holders. In this case, you would perform a negative arbitrage by shorting a Spot pair and going long in a 

The Spread Arbitrage feature helps traders capitalize on price discrepancies between different markets for the same cryptocurrency asset. With this feature, you can easily compare the market prices of an asset traded across various trading pairs and contracts. While Spread Arbitrage may be similar to spot-futures arbitrage, it offers more arbitrage opportunities since it covers a broader range of markets, unlike spot-futures arbitrage, which targets specific markets

With Spread Arbitrage, the aim is to profit from the eventual price convergence as you buy the crypto asset at a lower price in one market (e.g., Spot) and sell it at a higher price in another market (e.g., Futures). 

As the futures price will eventually align with the Spot price when the contract expires, you’ll be able to take advantage of the simultaneous price disparity for the same asset.

In order to trade with Bybit Arbitrage, you’ll first need to

Bybit Dual Asset Mining is a non-principal protected investment product with floating returns. Users who deposited crypto can earn an enhanced yield. Learn more.

Dual Asset is a short-term speculation vehicle that lets you capitalize on small price movements in the market. All you have to do is predict the direction of a given crypto asset, such as BTC, ETH or MNT, within a preset time frame. Upon maturity, your returns will be in the form of either USDT or your chosen crypto asset, depending on the outcome of your trade.

Bybit Dual Asset 2.0 is an enhanced version of the predecessor focusing on higher returns on capital for traders with better investment flexibility. Traders could customize their orders by entering different directions of the market trend based on their predictions to enjoy high-interest yields even if the predicted asset price did not trigger.  

Understanding Buy Low, Sell High on Bybit Dual Asset 2.0

 function on Bybit Dual Asset 2.0 refers to a product subscription in which traders anticipate the chosen digital asset to settle at a low targeted price at a predetermined time range. Here’s a user case scenario to help to visualize the product function: 

Alex chooses to buy BTC/USDT Dual Asset, and he will be using USDT as an underlying asset for the subscription to buy BTC at his desired lower crypto price. The yields vary depending on the settlement date, which ranges from 1 to 5 days. Assuming Alex opts for a 1-day subscription with 110% yields in APY, he is entitled to claim rewards in two different scenarios: 

 When the asset target price is reached  

, he will successfully purchase BTC at his desired price with his subscribed USDT and interest income.

His returns will be calculated with the formula provided below: 

 (Subscription Amount + Interest) / Target Price 

 Subscription Amount x APY x Subscription Period (in days)/365 

1,000 + ( 1,000 × 110% × 1/365) / 21,000 = 0.04776 BTC

Assuming the BTC price is $23,000 when cash out, Alex’s gross return on investment for the chosen Dual Asset subscription would be $1,098.48. 

 When the asset target price fails to reach  

, the target crypto will fail to be purchased, and you’ll receive your subscription amount and interest income in USDT.

Assuming the settlement price is higher than the target asset price, settling at $21,500. Alex’s return on investment will be calculated as below: 

1,000 + (1,000 × 110% × 1/365) = 1,003.0137 USDT

Even though Alex failed to purchase BTC at his desired price, he still earned rewards on his contributed USDT in the Dual Asset pool. It is still a win-win situation for Alex, as he did not lose any money for opportunity costs. 

: In both cases, Alex will still earn interest on his investment in the form of USDT. 

, in which traders anticipate selling the chosen digital assets at a higher targeted price within a predetermined date. Here’s a user case scenario to help to visualize the product function: 

Alex chooses to sell BTC/USDT Dual Asset, and he will be using USDT as an underlying asset for the subscription to sell BTC at his desired crypto price at a higher anticipated price. The yields vary depending on the settlement date, which ranges from 1 to 7 days. Assuming Alex opts for a 1-day subscription with 150% yields in APY, he is entitled to claim rewards in two different scenarios: 

 When the asset target price of $24,000 is reached  

, he will successfully sell his BTC at his desired price and receive USDT in return.

 (Subscription Amount + Interest) x Target Price

Assuming the settlement price is higher than the target asset price, settling at $24,000. Alex’s return on investment will be calculated as below: 

1 + (1 × 150% × 1/365) × 24,000 = $98.6301

Alex’s return on investment would be a total of 24,098.6301 USDT, including his capital of 24,000 USDT and the yields. 

 When the asset target price failed to reach, settling at $23,000. 

, he fails to sell his crypto at the target price and will receive yields in BTC as a return. 

When converting 1.0041 BTC to USDT at $23,00 per BTC, Alex will receive 23,094.30 USDT, including the yields.

Understanding the Post-ETF & Post-Halving Landscape: Challenges and Opportunities

 in early 2024, along with the April 11, 2024 

 have painted a complex canvas for 2024. Lennix Lai highlighted the new post-ETF market dynamics in his introduction, emphasizing the influx of traditional capital and varied market participants. The uncertainty of post-halving effects, as well as their interplay with broader economic factors, also present a complex scenario. Lai noted, "Halving was more impactful in the early stages. Now, we must consider macroeconomics as well."

Hao delved into the specifics of market supply-and-demand influences, stating that the introduction of a Bitcoin Spot ETF has certainly “opened up the floodgates to institutional money,” which traditionally hasn’t been as involved in crypto. This new demand has driven up prices. However, the halving also cuts supply significantly, even though its impact lessens with each cycle (due to the finite nature of Bitcoin). He further explained that we're seeing a convergence of the total circulating supply toward the 

, which will naturally diminish the supply-side impact over time.

Croft commented on the strategic implications of these events, sharing that both the Bitcoin Spot ETFs and halving narratives have been major topics. While their immediate impacts might not stir significant volatility, BTC price action tends to follow a pattern over months following a halving in what is essentially a sophisticated market that likely has these factors priced in already. Croft emphasized the market's evolving sophistication: "Immediate impacts might be muted, but the long-term effects are worth noting. Historically, the period from halving to peak has extended, showing that the real impact unfolds over months."

Thompson synthesized their insights, concluding that while immediate market reaction may be subdued, underlying shifts in market fundamentals will likely drive significant change over the medium-to-long term.

Market Trends and Predictions: Insights Into the Current Bull Run

The panel then moved on to discuss the current bull run, emphasizing the reduced market volatility, which suggests a maturing market. Hao observed the trend toward market maturity: "As we witness diminishing volatility, it's indicative of a maturing market. This maturity suggests that cryptocurrencies are moving toward mainstream acceptance, making the market less volatile but still rich with opportunities for both retail and institutional investors."

Lai discussed the evolving demographics and behaviors of market participants. As the market matures, the correlation with traditional macroeconomic factors becomes more pronounced. This bull run isn’t just about speculative interest, as it’s being driven by more foundational changes in the market structure that include the effects of the halving and the influx of new institutional players.

"In the short term, Bitcoin behaves like a risky asset class, influenced by positive sentiments pre-halving," Lai said.

Thompson added, "It appears that market participants are reacting preemptively to these events, a behavior akin to front-running, which has historically proven to influence Bitcoin's price trajectory well before the halving actually occurs."

Croft added that the narrative around these market events often precedes actual price action: by the time we see movement, the market has already digested the news. What's compelling is how these narratives develop and run their course over time, shaping market behavior in less direct but profound ways.

Maximizing Market Performance for Crypto Users

Leveraging Derivatives and Options Markets for Enhanced Performance

The next segment discussed ways in which 

 might offer a viable dynamic to certain traders, and how that could impact the market.

, averring that options and derivatives are being used more strategically than ever. They're not just being used for hedging, but are integral to the investment strategies of various institutional players. This is a testament to the market's maturation and the sophistication of the products available. Croft noted, “We’re seeing lots of these guys come into our CFD products” [CFD products are similar to 

] … and these investors “look to go long or short in a particular basket or individual tokens and try to pick out the performers and underperformers.” 

When asked about his usage of the phrase “[basket of] tokens,” Croft clarified that he wasn’t talking about indexes, but rather about how “someone could come in and get ten tokens they want to go short on, and ten tokens they want to go long on, and we can execute that. So it’s those clients choosing those baskets themselves rather than the products being preset.” Croft shared that Wintermute recently launched a new index provider, 

, and is looking toward working with other exchanges to help provide comprehensive, reliable and accessible indices.

The Rise of Meme Coins in the Crypto Market

Lai then discussed the evolution of market products, commenting that as the market evolves, so too must our products. Derivatives and options markets are crucial for providing the flexibility and tools users need to navigate this complex environment.

Hao focused on the technical aspects, maintaining that the real challenges and opportunities lie in enhancing the robustness of these tools. As we develop more sophisticated trading derivatives and options, we're not just creating new investment opportunities — we're also setting the stage for a more resilient market.

Thompson concluded this segment: "Clearly, the role of advanced financial instruments like derivatives and options is becoming more central as the market grows in complexity and scale."

When asked to comment on meme coins, Hao said it’s a “social movement starting from Wall Street and GameStop” and that it’s a “way to get people together … It can be a force for good instead of a tool for speculation.” Hao then shared about Bybit’s new initiative, the 

, explaining that it could be used for a charity or fundraising, linking it to a meme coin that’s “naturally inspiring and easy for people to understand.” In this way, meme coins can “be a force for good, to raise a charity fund for cancer treatment” or other causes.

Croft agreed, sharing his perspective that as long as meme coins are “fully transparent” and the projects make it clear that they’re part of a social movement whose participants who believe in and buy in to the cause, he’s “all for crypto facilitating that.”

Lai commented that memes are a sort of collective, and that not all meme coins are going to be successful. While they may be easy to create, it’s difficult to collectively get consensus from any large group of people. 

, expressing support for it and emphasizing that RWAs are “the link between traditional finance and crypto. That’s the last mile before crypto can be a real financial system, a link to the real-world economy.” He concluded that it’s certainly something he would “bet big on,” especially with more RWAs now on-chain.

How Exchanges and Institutions Adapt to Changing Market Dynamics

Innovation in Exchange Offerings: New Products, Services and Trading Pairs

Lai discussed the continuous need for innovation in the crypto exchange space, saying that as market dynamics evolve, so too must our platforms, focusing not just on expanding product offerings but also on enhancing underlying technology. Decreasing system latency and improving resilience and the sophistication of 

 systems is critical to staying ahead in the fast-paced environment.

Hao emphasized the importance of reliability and scalability, asserting that the foundation of any successful exchange lies in the robustness of its trading systems. As Bybit introduces more complex products and services, our priority remains ensuring that our matching engine and order processing systems can handle increased volumes without compromise. This is crucial for maintaining trust and efficiency in our operations.

Croft highlighted the strategic role of liquidity in product innovation, elaborating that Wintermute is closely involved in the initial stages of product launches by providing liquidity. This collaboration is essential for the successful rollout of new offerings. The ability to support exchanges from day one with robust liquidity helps ensure that new products can find a stable market footing.

Thompson summed up the discussion, observing that the adaptation of exchanges to market changes isn’t just about technological advancements, but also about understanding and integrating the needs of diverse market participants. This approach helps in crafting services that truly meet the evolving demands of the crypto market.

Global Market Integration: Collaborations and Partnerships for Sustainable Growth

Hao envisions a future of deeper integration between crypto and traditional financial systems. He referred to his comment during the segment on real-world assets, elaborating that the last frontier for a mature crypto ecosystem is its integration with the real economy. Tokenizing RWAs and streamlining processes such as clearing and settlement through blockchain technologies are steps toward this integration. These innovations will make many traditional roles obsolete, dramatically improving efficiency.

Lai projects the mainstreaming of crypto in traditional finance: we’re at a turning point, in which cryptocurrency is being woven into the fabric of TradFi services. The integration of trading infrastructure, exchange products and custody solutions between crypto and TradFi is accelerating. This convergence suggests that crypto will soon be an indistinguishable part of the broader financial ecosystem.

 as a critical bridge between fiat and crypto economies. Their growth into yield-bearing and basis-trading instruments shows their potential to transform financial services. These instruments thus play a pivotal role in the integration of crypto markets with TradFi, ensuring liquidity and stability.

Thompson highlighted the importance of collaboration, pointing out that the future of crypto isn't just about technological innovation but also about strategic partnerships. Collaborations between liquidity providers, exchanges and possibly even decentralized platforms are key to creating a seamless, integrated market experience.

Bluzelle is a Cosmos-based blockchain that allows the GameFi community to develop quality blockchain games, store game NFTs and leverage DeFi yields.

 is a decentralized network that’s transforming the way digital creations are stored on the 

. Its main goal is to provide users with the necessary tools, features and technical capacity to store and manage data without censorship. This detailed analysis of the project will help potential investors decide if they want to invest in BLZ, its native token.

According to its official website, the project’s three main features are quality play-to-earn (P2E) games, decentralized storage and financial products related to GameFi.

 in 2014. The co-founders initially focused on developing 

 for banks. Ultimately, the team realized an urgent need for a decentralized storage system for DApp developers. The decentralized storage would allow GameFi participants to scale and store their data without the drawbacks associated with a centralized database.

To meet the storage needs of decentralized apps, the Bluzelle blockchain relies on a system of participants who provide storage space to users. A user rents as much storage space as needed at a reasonable price. Since no central governing body regulates the mechanism, everything takes place in a decentralized environment.

Those who provide the storage are known as producers, and those who use the service are known as consumers. The innovative system of producers and consumers ensures that DApp developers can build GameFi apps without worrying about their storage needs. Likewise, gamers can store NFTs and manage their storage needs without the high cost associated with such tasks.

While Bluzelle is not the only project offering this solution, it has quite a few unique characteristics. For instance, it's one of the few blockchains designed specifically for GameFi. It also offers decentralized web hosting on the Bluzelle testnet. Similarly, the technology is compatible with multiple blockchain platforms.

Other features that make it stand out among competitors are:

The primary purpose of the Bluzelle blockchain is to provide scalable, safe and fast database services for the development of DApps. Game developers and GameFi participants will have the required capacity to store and use the massive amount of data needed to operate GameFi apps in a Web 3.0 environment.

While there are a variety of blockchain projects that offer general file storage, such database services don't address the needs of GameFi developers and players. Most of these services are centralized, unsecured and expensive.

To solve the riddle, the Bluzelle network relies on participants to rent out their redundant storage to developers and other users. In order to encourage participation, any participant who shares their storage is compensated with BLZ.

As mentioned, network participants who share their storage are known as producers, while those who use the storage are known as consumers. Whenever a consumer uploads data, it is stored across clusters of nodes spread across the globe. The storage space on multiple nodes prevents problems caused by network faults, human interference and natural calamities. Besides offering security, the configuration also makes data locally accessible to DApp developers, resulting in faster performance.

Since anyone can become a producer, the blockchain uses strict parameters to maintain reliability. For instance, if you want to rent your storage space, you’ll need to stake BLZ in proportion to the space you provide. As an internal token, BLZ helps run the Bluzelle crypto economy.

Staking BLZ serves as a guarantee to consumers that you intend to provide a reliable service. If the service is substandard, the consumer has the right to ask for a refund.

 to analyze the performance of individual producers. A below-par service will reduce your Karma Index. In contrast, if your Karma Index is high, you can charge a higher storage fee consummate with your reputation.

It's worth noting that Bluzelle uses a dual-token system: BLZ and ERC-20 BLZ. The native token within the blockchain is BLZ. In contrast, the ERC-20 BLZ is an external token used for trading on exchanges. It's based on the 

 concept, and you can buy it from any one of the crypto exchanges that offers it.

Bluzelle is designed for GameFi enthusiasts; and from a user perspective, the entire ecosystem revolves around GameFi. Here are some features to help you understand its utility.

Real-time gameplay consists of a four-stage game loop. You can battle others and play in tournaments. Winning battles will give you game currency and open additional options for players on the leaderboard. You can use BLZ to invest, 

 tokens, while your NFTs can be stored on the decentralized storage network, 

Bluzelle Net is a Cosmos-backed proof-of-stake ledger that can complete 10,000 transactions per second at a minimal cost to the user. The Bluzelle network is powered by 

 technology. This combination of Cosmos and Tendermint is particularly useful for database applications.

Bluzelle R2 is often dubbed a solution to the existing 

 (IPFS) protocol, currently used to store NFTs.

While IPFS is considered the gold standard, its lack of immutability is a concern. IPFS offers decentralization, but doesn't assure decentralized storage. In other words, an NFT sits on a single node that can go down without any option to recover it. This is where the R2 storage comes into play.

The Bluzelle R2 decentralized storage network is particularly useful for storing NFTs and related data. Amid the rise of R2, several NFT communities shifted their resources to decentralized storage. It's reliable because it stows data across multiple nodes around the world. In addition, the technology uses a consensus mechanism that ensures only you can update your data.

The Bluzelle project lets users aggregate DeFi projects in the Cosmos ecosystem. It

Similarly, Tidal Finance, a Balancer-like insurance market, allows users to create customizable insurance pools. In this 

, buyers retain their ability to transfer their insurance contracts via the tradable insurance tokens.

Over the years, the Bluzelle development team has partnered with many notable DeFi projects to expand their ecosystem. These partnerships include such notable names as Ankr,  Equilibrium, Phala Network, Mintable.app, TomoChain and Genesis Shards.

 are designed differently from those of other networks. Instead of receiving a fixed amount of rewards, users receive daily variable rewards based on existing market conditions. The unique staking mechanism is conceived to encourage loyalty, tenure and larger stakes.

There are two types of staking rewards: Network fees and incentive rewards. Rewards from network fees are shared among all participants according to their stakes in the network. Validators are also allowed to get a commission from delegators. You can see your rewards in the staking dashboard.

Incentive rewards encourage users to participate in the network at an early stage. Such rewards are distributed daily. You’ll not see these rewards in the dashboard. Instead, they show up directly on your available balance sheet.

At this time, the official website doesn't endorse a particular wallet. However, you can store BLZ on various third-party wallets, such as Ledger and Trezor. You can also store and stake the native token on the Frontier mobile wallet. 

As an all-inclusive GameFi ecosystem that offers lucrative game development and investing opportunities, Bluzelle makes sense as an investment opportunity. Here’s why:

The team behind Bluzelle is actively trying to solve real-world problems; however, there are a couple of loopholes that require critical insight. Before investing, keep an eye on the following:

Bluzelle provides safe and secure data storage services.

 is one of many organizations that have successfully used the BLZ blockchain to store its data on secure clusters. Using the blockchain, Quadrant can offer 100% decentralized data asset verification to its users without relying on traditional centralized sources and cloud solutions.

Bluzelle has a variety of other uses. For instance, it has partnered with

 to offer user-friendly domain name and database operations to both tech and non-tech users. With Portal Network, users can buy a customized, human-readable domain name for their crypto wallet address. The resulting webpage can also interface with the Bluzelle database for 

After the launch of the mainnet in early 2021, the team focused on three major tracks: Mainnet, Oracles and Polkadot. Here’s an overview of Blluzelle’s recent developments:

Several new features were added to the mainnet: Support for 

, inter-blockchain connections with other chains, and docker support for quick setup of new nodes. As of mid-2022, the team is actively working on improving network governance and designing a proof of storage protocol.

 will showcase the power of its database, which is why the development team is giving the oracles their utmost attention. Due to the great demand for decentralized database storage, the team is striving to offer inter-blockchain support, as well as ensuring advanced security triggers, fast pricing intervals and high-quality price data. The team even employs a five-step data-cleaning process to make certain the prices given are the most fair and accurate at the time.

: By the end of 2022, the team expects to achieve full interoperability with 

. This requires designing a viable economic model of using DOT to pay for Bluzelle services.

There’s a total supply of 500 million BLZ. Almost 10% of the tokens are reserved for staking rewards. The initial coin offering (ICO) helped raise $19.5 million when it launched in January 2018.

Currently, there are approximately 340 million BLZ in circulation. 

As mentioned above, the Bluzelle ecosystem uses a dual token system: ERC-20 BLZ and BLZ. The ERC-20 BLZ is an external token used for trading in exchanges, while BLZ is a native token within Bluzelle's own blockchain. Both tokens can be used to: 

You can buy BLZ from any of the popular crypto exchanges. Bybit is among the very few crypto exchanges that also offer BLZ as a perpetual contract. Perpetual contracts are similar to spot trades, but they offer traders an opportunity to hold a leveraged position. You can trade them as easily as traditional crypto without worrying about the expiration date.

Follow these guidelines to buy BLZ/USDT perpetual contracts on Bybit:

, you’ll need to buy USDT before converting it to BLZ.
