DUBAI, UAE, May 11, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Bybit, the world's second-largest cryptocurrency exchange by trading volume, announced an update to its Fixed Rate Loan product that allows users to leverage their Flexible Earnings balance to fund supply orders. This enhancement enables users to continue earning flexible APR on their capital while awaiting loan matches, maximizing returns on idle funds.
Unlocking More Value from Crypto Assets
Before the upgrade, lenders waiting for their fixed-rate loan orders to be matched were letting their funds sit idle. The new feature makes it possible for users to make full use of their assets and generate passive income.
By leveraging Flexible Earnings as a funding source for supply orders, users can maintain continuous earning potential while their positions await matches. Once an order is matched, Bybit automatically converts the position into a fixed-term loan at the agreed-upon rate, seamlessly transitioning users from flexible to fixed earnings without manual intervention.
The update also allows Bybit users to combine capital from both their Funding Account and Flexible Earnings in a single supply order, offering greater flexibility in how they manage and deploy their assets.
How It Works
The streamlined process takes three simple steps:
- User may place a supply order using their Flexible Earnings Balance, keeping their funds eligible for flexible APR.
- Once the supply order is matched, the required amount is redeemed automatically.
- The position moves into a fixed-term loan at the agreed rate.
The real-time processing through Bybit's advanced order matching system provides clarity of order status and earning rates at every stage.
The new feature ensures there is no APR gap and zero waiting time, boosting capital efficiency for users. No matter their capital size, users' funds continue earning while their orders are pending. Users benefit from interest continuity combined with smart, automatic position conversion that minimizes manual steps.

Bybit Introduces Enhanced Fixed Rate Loan: Earning Flexible APR on Idle Funds
LONDON, May 11, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- The inaugural World Sports Economy Summit (WSES) launched in London, marking a historic milestone as a premier international forum at the intersection of sport, finance and technology.
The summit took place during an extraordinary period in the global sporting calendar, as both the World Snooker Championships and the ITTF World Team Table Tennis Championship Finals reached their culmination across the UK.
Hosted by World Sports Economy (WSE) Ltd and organised by Branding Shanghai, the summit is supported by the UK Department for Business and Trade (DBT) and the China-Britain Business Council (CBBC), with the official backing from the World Professional Billiards and Snooker Association (WPBSA), International Table Tennis Federation (ITTF), and Table Tennis England (TTE). The Summit was held in partnership with leading enterprises including Shanghai Jiushi Group, Li-Ning, DHS, and DL Holdings.
Opening remarks were delivered by Jasmine Pang, Founder and Chair at Branding Shanghai and Executive Director of the World Sports Economy Summit, followed by addresses from Rupert Daniels, Director of Services at DBT; WANG Qi, Minister at the Chinese Embassy in the UK; Peter Burnett OBE, Chief Executive at CBBC; and Petra Sörling, IOC Member and President of ITTF.
The morning sessions explored the digital transformation of sports assets, with Michael Gu Jiqing (Vice-President of Shanghai Jiushi Group and President of Shanghai Shenhua FC) sharing expertise on managing premier properties such as the F1 Chinese Grand Prix. This digital evolution was further considered by Li Yi (MIGU Video), Zhe Ji (Red Lantern) and David Murray (World Women's Snooker). A standout highlight was the Table Tennis Centenary Panel, featuring LOU Shihe (General Manager of Double Happiness and President of Shanghai Table Tennis Association) and "Ping Pong Diplomat" Alan Hydes, reflecting on the sport's power to unite communities.
In the afternoon, the global expansion of snooker took centre stage following Chinese player Wu Yize's historic victory in Sheffield. A fireside chat with Jason Ferguson (Chairman of WPBSA and Director of World Snooker Tour) and snooker legend Ding Junhui discussed his role in mentoring a new generation of Chinese talents and the sport's future.
The summit also addressed the intersection of high finance and sporting lifestyle, with Crystal Jiang (Co-founder of DL Holdings and Owner of One Carmel) delivering a keynote on family legacy and sportsmanship, supported by insights from Schubert Lou (CEO of Trip.com), Sophia Shen (Shanghai Equestrian Association), David Guigaz and Sarah Lewis OBE OLY (Chair of GB Olympians Association).
The event concluded with a commercial roadmap for 2026 and beyond, featuring Shane Campbell (VP of Strategy & Growth at IMG), Darren Eales, Aidan Mullally (The Premier League), Sarah Montague (Microsoft) and Rajan Kapur (Formula 1).
