Bybit has expanded its lending and trading offerings by allowing eligible retail and institutional users to use tokenized shares of major US companies as collateral. The supported stocks include Nvidia, Apple, Tesla, and three other US-listed firms, according to CoinTelegraph.
This move integrates traditional equities with crypto lending products, providing users with more flexibility in managing their portfolios and accessing liquidity. The addition of these well-known tech stocks reflects growing interest in bridging digital assets and mainstream financial instruments.
For Japanese investors, who have shown increasing appetite for both tokenized assets and diversified collateral options, this development could signal broader adoption of hybrid financial products within the region’s evolving crypto landscape.
