Bybit Named to Fortune Crypto 100 as It Accelerates Its Vision for The New Financial Platform
Dubai, UAE, June 12th, 2026, Chainwire
Bybit, the world’s second-largest cryptocurrency exchange by trading volume, today announced its inclusion in the inaugural Fortune Crypto 100, a prestigious ranking recognizing the most influential companies and protocols shaping the future of the global digital asset ecosystem.
The Fortune Crypto 100 recognizes organizations driving innovation, building critical market infrastructure, and expanding the role of digital assets in the broader financial system. Bybit was recognized in the CeFi category, which includes crypto-first companies such as exchanges, lenders, and custodians that facilitate the trading, custody, and movement of digital assets. The ranking brings together both crypto-native leaders and established financial institutions, reflecting the growing role of digital assets within global finance and the increasing importance of blockchain-based infrastructure in capital markets.
“This recognition reflects the trust our users place in us, the dedication of our team, and the progress our industry has made over the years,” said Ben Zhou, Co-founder and CEO of Bybit. “Crypto is becoming an integral part of the global financial system. We are honored to be recognized among the companies helping build the infrastructure, products, and standards that will support its continued growth.”
The recognition comes as Bybit continues to expand its role beyond a cryptocurrency exchange. Over the past year, the company has advanced its vision of becoming The New Financial Platform, bringing together digital assets, traditional finance, payments, tokenized investments, AI-powered tools, and Web3 services into a unified ecosystem.
Bybit has strengthened its commitment to trust, security, and regulatory compliance. The company has expanded its regulated presence across key markets, including securing the UAE Virtual Asset Platform Operator License, advancing its European operations under MiCAR, and working closely with regulators and policymakers globally to support the responsible development of the digital asset industry.
As the industry matures, regulatory clarity is playing an increasingly important role in driving mainstream adoption and institutional participation.
“Trust is the foundation of every financial system,” Ben added. “Innovation alone is not enough. The future of finance requires strong infrastructure, responsible regulation, and products that serve real user needs. We welcome the progress being made across global markets because it helps create a stronger foundation for long-term growth.”
Today, Bybit serves more than 80 million users worldwide and continues to expand access to financial opportunities through innovation. Recent initiatives include the growth of tokenized asset offerings, the launch of Bybit IPO Express, expanded access to tokenized equities through xStocks, AI-powered trading and research tools, and continued investments in institutional-grade infrastructure.
“We are building a new financial platform where everyone, everywhere has access to the same financial opportunities,” Zhou said. “Access to investing, wealth creation, and financial innovation should not be limited by geography or legacy systems. Our goal is to connect users to opportunities across crypto and traditional finance through a single trusted platform.”
As digital assets become increasingly integrated into global capital markets, Bybit remains focused on delivering secure, compliant, and accessible financial services while helping bridge the gap between traditional and digital finance.
