Bybit partners to expand DeFi utility of bbSOL

Bybit, the world’s second-largest cryptocurrency exchange by trading volume, has announced strategic integrations for its bbSOL offering, aimed at broadening yield opportunities in decentralized finance (DeFi). Partnerships with RateX, Save, and marginfi allow bbSOL holders to access innovative tools for synthetic yield farming, liquidity provision, and yield optimization.

The collaboration with RateX introduces synthetic yield farming options, where bbSOL holders can trade synthetic Yield Tokens (YT) tied to yield-bearing assets. With features like Earn Fixed Yield and Yield Liquidity Farming, RateX offers bbSOL holders tools to trade, lock in fixed yields, or provide liquidity for yield trading.

Additionally, partnerships with Save and marginfi, two Solana-based lending and borrowing platforms, bring nearly $900 million in total value locked (TVL) to bbSOL. These platforms enable users to connect with a larger Web3 community, lending and borrowing securely while optimizing DeFi returns.

A competitive APY with broad CeDeFi reach

Bybit’s bbSOL offers a competitive annual percentage yield (APY) of up to 22%, combining base staking yields with DeFi-generated returns. With no commission fees and flexible redemption options, bbSOL provides a seamless way for users to leverage both centralized and decentralized platforms for asset growth.

Bybit’s vision for CeDeFi innovation

“Bybit is proud to provide CeDeFi solutions that empower our users to access, earn, and grow their assets with bbSOL across both centralized and decentralized platforms.

Bybit remains committed to supporting users in maximizing yield with versatile options that meet the evolving needs of today’s digital asset landscape.”
