DUBAI, UAE, Feb. 6, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Bybit, the world's second-largest cryptocurrency exchange by trading volume, has introduced two easy-to-use account modes on Bybit TradFi, designed to help both new and experienced users start trading traditional assets with confidence.
The new account modes, Zero-Fee mode and Tight-Spread mode, give users a clear choice in how they access markets such as gold, FX, and stocks, depending on their cost preferences and trading experience. Both operate on industry-standard foreign exchange brokerage models, with the primary distinction being how transaction costs are applied and displayed.
Under Zero-Fee mode, users can trade gold and other TradFi products with no separate commission charges, as trading costs are incorporated into the spread. This simplified structure makes it especially beginner-friendly, allowing anyone to get started right away without needing to manage complex fee calculations. Tight-Spread mode, by contrast, offers narrower spreads with a transparent commission structure, a format typically favored by more active traders who prioritize precision pricing and tighter market execution.
To make onboarding seamless, Zero-Fee mode is set as the default option for all new TradFi users, enabling them to start trading immediately. Eligible users may switch to Tight-Spread mode at any time, provided they accumulate a total TradFi deposit of at least 3,000 USDT in their TradFi account and have no open positions or pending orders at the time of the switch. Account mode changes can be completed through both the Bybit app and web platform within the TradFi trading interface.
The launch builds on a year of significant TradFi product expansion. In 2025, Bybit introduced U.S. stock CFD trading, expanded easy access to gold and FX trading under the unified TradFi banner, and completed web integration to enable seamless web-based trading. These developments reinforce Bybit TradFi's commitment to making traditional markets more accessible to everyday traders.
The introduction of dual account modes reflects Bybit TradFi's continued focus on lowering the barrier to entry while still supporting advanced trading strategies, maintaining transparency and consistency in pricing structures. Additional details on TradFi trading and account functionality are available on Bybit's official website.

Bybit TradFi Launches Beginner-Friendly Account Modes Offering Easy Access to Gold Trading and Zero Fees

NEW DELHI, Feb. 5, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) will convene its 85th Public Meeting in Mumbai from 7–12 March 2026, hosted by the National Internet Exchange of India (NIXI) under the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY). With its more than one billion Internet users and a thriving digital economy, India is an ideal location for participants from around the world to gather at the ICANN85 Community Forum to advance the technical work that ensures the secure and stable operation of the Internet.
"Ten years after the ICANN Public Meeting in Hyderabad, the ICANN85 Community Forum in Mumbai offers the Indian Internet community an excellent opportunity to attend and participate in the global dialogue on important Internet governance issues," said Samiran Gupta, ICANN Vice President for Stakeholder Engagement and Managing Director for the Asia Pacific region. "I want to thank our host NIXI for bringing ICANN85 to Mumbai and I look forward to a fruitful meeting."
Shri S. Krishnan, IAS, Secretary, Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY) and Chairman, NIXI said, "India's digital transformation is anchored in an open, secure, inclusive and resilient Internet. Hosting ICANN85 reflects India's commitment to the multistakeholder model of Internet governance and to advancing policy frameworks that support innovation, inclusion, and trust in the global Internet ecosystem."
Key Topics at ICANN85: The New gTLD Program, ICANN Community's Role in Advancing a Multilingual Internet, and the Multistakeholder Model
ICANN85 takes place at a pivotal moment – just before the launch of the next application round for the New gTLD Program in April. The program, the next expansion of the Domain Name System, provides businesses, communities, governments, and other organizations the rare opportunity to apply for new top-level domains tailored to fit their organization, community, culture, language, and customer interests. The meeting will include important updates about the next round and how to apply.
The New gTLD Program helps to advance ICANN's 2030 vision as the trusted steward of the Internet's unique identifier systems to strengthen the single, globally interoperable Internet for all. This truly multilingual Internet enables people globally to use the Internet in their own languages and scripts, which matches the Indian government's approach to expanding Internet usage.
ICANN85 is the first ICANN Public Meeting since the United Nations General Assembly adopted the WSIS+20 Outcomes Document on 17 December 2025. The World Summit on the Information Society: 20-year review (WSIS+20) reaffirmed that the Internet is a shared global resource whose stability, openness, and interoperability depend on the multistakeholder model approach, a position strongly supported by ICANN and the Government of India.
WSIS+20 marked a reaffirmation rather than an end point, demonstrating the need to continue the work of the multistakeholder model, bringing new voices and expertise into the Internet governance ecosystem, strengthening knowledge transfer and capacity building, and sustaining engagement through forums like ICANN Public Meetings.
ICANN Community Excellence Award
Continuing its tradition of recognizing outstanding community member contributions, the ICANN Community Excellence Award will be presented at the Welcome Ceremony (9 March 2026). This award recognizes ICANN community members who have deeply invested in consensus-based solutions and contributed substantively to the ICANN multistakeholder model.
Registration
In-person registration remains open until 6 March 2026. On-site registration is not available. Attendance is free and open to all. For more information, and to register, please visit the meeting website.
About ICANN
ICANN's mission is to help ensure a stable, secure, and unified global Internet. To reach another person on the Internet, you need to type an address – a name or a number – into your computer or other device. That address must be unique, so computers know where to find each other. ICANN helps coordinate and support these unique identifiers across the world. ICANN was formed in 1998 as a nonprofit public benefit corporation with a community of participants from all over the world.
About NIXI
The National Internet Exchange of India (NIXI) is a not-for-profit organization set up under the aegis of the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY), Government of India.
