DUBAI, UAE, Sept. 18, 2026 /CourierPR/ -- Bybit, the world's second-largest cryptocurrency exchange by trading volume, has launched the final month of its USD1 Hold & Earn program. From now until October 16, 2026, users have the last opportunity to earn WLFI rewards daily from a 35,000,000 WLFI pool simply by holding USD1 in their Bybit account.
The program, which is part of Bybit's USD1 Ecosystem Carnival, offers up to 8% APR and daily rewards to eligible holders. No staking, subscription, or lock-up is required. Participants can track their standing on the USD1 Holder Leaderboard, which updates daily and ranks the top 50 USD1 holders on Bybit by effective holdings.
Daily rewards are calculated using the formula: effective daily USD1 holdings multiplied by the USD1/USDT settlement price, multiplied by the daily APR, divided by 365, divided by the WLFI/USDT settlement price. Both settlement prices are determined by the average of the last trade price per minute between 23:30 and 23:59 UTC, sourced from the Bybit Spot Market.
This program marks the conclusion of Bybit's engagement with the USD1 ecosystem in 2026. Launched in April 2026, the USD1 Ecosystem Carnival introduced three new USD1-quoted trading pairs, BTC/USD1, ETH/USD1, and USDC/USD1, alongside a series of trading and gamified campaigns that distributed a combined 10,000,000 WLFI in rewards.
USD1 is a USD-backed stablecoin issued by World Liberty Financial, fully collateralized by short-term U.S. Treasury securities and cash equivalents and designed to maintain a stable 1:1 peg with the US Dollar. WLFI is the governance token of World Liberty Financial, a DeFi protocol built to broaden access to decentralized financial services. Token holders can participate in protocol governance decisions and contribute to the direction of the ecosystem.
Bybit, trusted by more than 80 million users worldwide, brings together investing, trading, payments, and wealth-building in a single secure and intelligent ecosystem. Through the combination of AI-powered technology, deep global liquidity, robust security, and transparent operations, Bybit makes global finance more accessible, efficient, and empowering for everyone.
