Risks and Rewards of Buying Crypto on Bybit
As with any investment, buying crypto with Bybit comes with its share of risks and rewards. The primary risk is the volatility of the crypto market. Cryptocurrency prices can fluctuate dramatically in a short period, which can result in substantial losses.
On the other hand, the primary reward is the potential for high returns. Cryptocurrencies have been shown to offer substantial returns over the past decade, with Bitcoin being the most notable example. Furthermore, by trading on Bybit, you can maximize your profits using different contracts and trading strategies.
Hereâs an overview of the products you can consider.
Bybit Spot: Using the Spot market to buy or sell cryptocurrencies at the current price immediately delivers the cryptocurrency traded.
Bybit Perpetual/Futures: Users can sign agreements to buy or sell an underlying asset at a predetermined price and specific date in the future. Traders can take a long or short position, depending upon their outlook. Long positions are common for traders who predict a price increase; however, traders may short a position hoping to benefit from price declines.
Bybit Options: European-style cash-settled Options allow users to execute call or put options upon contract maturation. A call Option gives a buyer the right, but not the obligation, to purchase an asset at a set price on an expiration date. Likewise, a put Option gives a buyer the right to sell an asset at a predetermined price upon expiration.
The Bottom Line
Itâs possible to buy cryptocurrency on Bybit without paying fees, which can significantly increase your profits. By understanding how Bybit's fee schedule works, as well as the chosen type of payment gateway, you can effectively trade without paying a dime in fees.Â
Remember, however, that while trading without fees can increase your profits, it doesn't eliminate the risks associated with crypto trading. Always trade responsibly and invest only what you can afford to lose.Â
