 This robust tool empowers you to generate regular profits with minimal risks by capitalizing on price disparities across different markets.

 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.

Mutant Ape Yacht Club (MAYC) is a collection of 20,000 NFTs that are the mutated versions of the Bored Ape Yacht Club (BAYC) NFTs.

The Mutant Ape Yacht Club (MAYC) is a collection of 20,000 NFTs based on the apes in the 

 Both these collections are from the same company, Yuga Labs. That’s why there are similarities in the traits of the Bored Apes and the Mutants. Token holders of both enjoy many of the same perks and share the same community and Discord channel. 

The MAYC collection was launched just a few months after its predecessor, BAYC, which launched in April 2021. 

That’s just a glimpse of the history of MAYC. But the important question is: Should you invest in Mutant Apes? Are they valuable? What’s so unique about these NFTs that make them the most expensive ones on the market? 

We’ll answer these questions and others for you in this article. 

 that’s an extension of the Bored Ape Yacht club. It was created by 

 in August 2021 to expand the BAYC ecosystem, invite new members into the community by giving more people the opportunity to earn tokens, and reward existing Bored Ape holders with a brand new NFT. MAYC is among the 

The MAYC NFT collection has 20,000 pieces of digital art, which is double the number of the original BAYC collection. You can become a part of the community by either purchasing Bored Ape NFTs and mutating them by giving them a serum (more on serums later), or you can buy a Mutant NFT directly. 

Each Mutant has certain features that make it unique. The rarer the features, the pricier the NFT will be. For instance, the 

 is only found in 0.4% of the Mutants, so NFTs with this feature cost more as compared to other Mutant Apes in the ecosystem. 

You can learn about the distinguishing traits and their rarity according to percentage by looking at the details of the Mutant or the Bored Ape NFTs on the 

. Such information is usually displayed under the 

The things that make the Mutant Ape Yacht Club NFT collection unique are its limited supply of NFTs, and the Mutant Serum. You can think of this serum as a digital tube filled with a magical liquid that Bored Apes take to become Mutated Apes. 

There are three tiers of the Mutant Serum vials. These are M1, M2, and M3 or Mega Mutant, which is the holy grail of the whole ecosystem. M1 is the least expensive one. There were 7,500 vials of this serum at the time of launch. It creates a Mutant with features similar to the original Bored Ape. M2 is a bit pricier than M1, totaling 2,492 vials at launch. It also creates a Mutant NFT similar to its Bored Ape. 

M3 serum is the most unique, with only eight vials ever created. At the date of writing (7/29/2022), 

The uniqueness of the MAYC is also due to its exclusive 

, which includes celebrities and crypto whales. 

You can enjoy incredible perks by simply being a member of the MAYC or the BAYC. There’s always something unique being airdropped for free to MAYC members, which gives them a leg up in the NFT space and even in 

For example, the Mutant Ape NFT owners were able to claim 2,042 

 during its launch on March 17, 2022. And as a part of BAYC’s Road Map 2.0, all original Bored Ape and Mutant NFT owners will be 

 of their NFTs that they can use in the metaverse. Since these NFTs are considered elite, anyone walking around the metaverse in the form of a Bored Ape or a Mutant can instantly become a celebrity. 

There are two ways to own an MAYC NFT. You can either buy a Mutant ape, or make your own Mutant Ape by using the Mutant Serum on your Bored Ape. 10,000 Mutant Apes were released during the public sale, while 10,000 mutant vials were randomly airdropped to existing BAYC holders. 

If you’re a Bored Ape Yacht Club NFT holder, you can actually create up to three Mutant Ape NFTs by using a 

 to apply M1, M2 and M3 serums to your Bored Ape! Don’t worry, this mutation process doesn’t destroy the original BAYC NFT, so you get to be the proud owner of both BAYC and MAYC NFTs.

Are All Mutant NFTs the Same as Their Bored Apes? 

Most of the Mutant Ape Yacht Club NFTs are variations of their BAYC Apes, but a few of them, called the Mega Mutants, have unique features. You can inject a vial of a certain type of serum only once to each Bored Ape. So you can’t have two M1 Mutant Ape NFTs or two M2 Mutant Apes for the same Bored Ape Yacht Club NFT.

To create a Mutant, you need to use a serum and pay the required 

. It usually takes a few seconds for the Bored Ape to turn into a new NFT. Afterward, you can send the resulting Mutant Ape NFT to your wallet address. 

What Makes Mutant Ape Yacht Club Valuable?

Multiple reasons make joining Mutant Ape Yacht Club valuable. Primarily, it’s the fact that by owning a Mutant NFT, you can join the BAYC ecosystem at a lower tier of membership. By being a part of the MAYC community, you can enjoy most of the same perks as BAYC members. These include access to exclusive merchandise, tips on upcoming NFT drops and a community of like-minded enthusiasts, including celebrities like 

Rarity of Mutant Serums Enhances the Value of MAYC

Another reason for the high value of the MAYC NFT collection is the rarity of Mutant Serums. Rarity drives up demand. One vial of the Mega Mutant serum was 

because of its high demand and rarity, even though it was acquired for free by the BAYC token holder. Even M1 and M2 serums that aren’t as rare as M3 sell for a lot of money. 

Owning a Mutant Ape also has commercial value. You can sell it for profit, or license it out to magazines, marketing agencies or 

 to earn a passive income. That’s because you own the intellectual rights to the NFT you hold. For example, someone licensed their Bored Apes to the Universal Music Group label named 10:22PM, thus allowing the company to create a music group based on their Bored Apes. 

Holding Mutant Apes is also a social symbol. People put them on their skateboards, and 

 on their musical album covers. NBA player 

 on his on-court sneakers for a game in November 2021. 

The team behind Mutant Ape Yacht Club has a track record of sticking to their NFT road map and running a highly successful project — BAYC. That increases people’s confidence in MAYC and, subsequently, the value of these NFTs. Big companies such as Google Ventures and Samsung have invested in Yuga Labs, which adds further value to the entire ecosystem.

Should You Invest in Mutant Ape Yacht Club?

Although there is a trove of benefits to investing in the MAYC and joining the community, it’s not for everyone. The threshold to enter this club is extremely high — and that’s why we don’t think it’s 

 for the average investor. Hence, we recommend that you don’t invest in these NFTs unless you’re wealthy enough to bear a loss, should that happen.

The BAYC and MAYC are part of Road Map 1.0. Yuga Labs is already working on Road Map 2.0, which will include live events and 3D avatars, among other things. Mutant Ape Yacht Club is also touted to be 

Even if you can’t invest in the MAYC NFTs just yet, keep a close eye on the progress in this ecosystem because it has a big role in shaping the future of the metaverse and crypto world.
