Bybit Expands TradFi Perp Options with Tesla, QQQ, SOXL and More, Launches Trading Challenge with Up to 70,000 USDT in Prizes

Bybit Perp Options, the industry's first options contracts built on Bybit's TradFi Perpetuals, officially went live on September 17, 2026 with SpaceX and NVIDIA as the first available underlyings. Starting now, Tesla, Invesco QQQ (Nasdaq 100 ETF), Direxion Semiconductor Bull 3X ETF (SOXL), Micron Technology, SK Hynix, and Sandisk join the lineup, bringing the total to eight tickers this month.

Also starting today, the Bybit Wall Street Blue-Chip Options Challenge is open to all users until October 27, 2026, offering two ways for traders to win bonus rewards:

• New-User First Trade: A 5,000 USDT prize pool offering 5 USDT to each of the first 1,000 qualifying users who place their first valid TradFi Perp Options trade during the event.
• Volume Challenge: A prize pool of up to 65,000 USDT, unlocked in tiers based on collective trading volume across all participants and distributed to the top 50 traders by individual volume.

New users looking to trade global markets with Perp Options stand to claim from both prize pools.

Bybit Perp Options gives traders round-the-clock access to global equity options directly from their USDT-funded Bybit accounts, without requiring a separate broker or options-approved brokerage account. Contracts trade 24/7 with European-style settlement and no early assignment, settle in cash via USDT, and support fractional lot sizes, naked options, combo strategies, and full portfolio and cross-margin support through Bybit's single Unified Trading Account.

• Open Bybit and navigate to TradFi, then select the Perp Options tab.
• Choose a ticker, such as TSLA, NVDA, or SPCX.
• Select an expiry date and strike price, then buy or sell calls or puts.
• At expiry, positions settle automatically in USDT.
