The move extends equity-backed crypto lending to both retail and institutional users by letting clients pledge tokenized shares of six U.S. companies.
Bybit has begun accepting tokenized shares of Nvidia, Apple, Tesla and three other U.S. firms as collateral for loans, expanding equity-backed crypto lending to retail and institutional users. The development allows clients to borrow against blockchain-based representations of listed equities rather than relying only on traditional crypto collateral, a structure that broadens the range of assets that can be used in digital-asset lending.
