# Bybit coverage

Derivatives powerhouse with aggressive funding rates

Bybit built its reputation on perpetual futures, and it shows. The exchange consistently ranks top-3 in derivatives open interest. Its funding rates often diverge from Binance, sometimes by several basis points per 8-hour cycle. For basis traders and funding rate arbitrageurs, Bybit is where the opportunities live.


- Type: centralized exchange
- Markets monitored: spot, futures
- Pairs covered: 400+
- Spread types: futures/futures, spot/futures, spot/spot

### Why it matters for spread detection

Bybit's futures prices frequently trade at a premium or discount relative to Binance, especially during high-volatility events. A 0.3% basis on BTC sounds small until you multiply it by leverage and frequency. Umbra tracks Bybit-Binance basis spreads continuously and alerts you the instant they exceed your configured threshold.

### What makes it different

Bybit's copy trading ecosystem means retail flow can push perpetual prices away from fair value faster than on other venues. These dislocations are short-lived but relevant for alert-driven traders.

### Features

- Top-3 global derivatives open interest
- USDT and USDC-margined perpetuals
- Unified margin account system
- Deep liquidity on BTC, ETH, SOL pairs
