Bybit launches 50% fee discount on gold and silver perpetual contracts
Bybit has announced a limited-time promotion to mark the launch of perpetual contracts for precious metals on its platform. Traders can receive a 50% discount on trading fees for the XAU/USDT and XAG/USDT contracts, which allow users to trade gold and silver prices through derivatives.
The promotion runs from March 9 until March 31, 2026, at 10:00 UTC and applies to all platform users, including both standard and VIP accounts.
Promotion terms and fee structure
During the promotional period, Bybit has introduced a modified fee structure for the newly listed precious metal contracts.
According to the campaign conditions:
• Maker fee — 0%
• Taker fee — 50% discount, starting from 0.015%
These reduced fees apply when trading the XAU/USDT and XAG/USDT perpetual contracts, which are settled in the USDT stablecoin.
Perpetual contracts are widely used derivative instruments that allow traders to speculate on price movements without an expiration date. In this case, the underlying assets are gold and silver, traditionally considered safe-haven instruments in global financial markets.
How to participate
To take part in the promotion, users need to:
1. Register or log in to a Bybit account
2. Deposit funds into their trading account
3. Navigate to the XAU/USDT or XAG/USDT trading pairs
4. Open positions in the perpetual contracts during the promotional period
The fee discount is applied automatically to all eligible trades.
Expansion of derivatives products
The launch of gold and silver contracts reflects the growing trend of cryptocurrency exchanges integrating traditional financial assets into digital trading platforms. Precious metals remain key instruments for hedging inflation and geopolitical risks.
Reducing trading fees during the initial launch period may help stimulate liquidity and attract traders interested in commodities-based derivatives. At the same time, these instruments allow market participants to gain exposure to gold and silver prices through crypto infrastructure.
For the derivatives market, the launch signals continued expansion of products that combine traditional commodity markets with cryptocurrency trading platforms.
