Bybit EU has rolled out a fresh lineup for European users, blending automation with everyday usability. The highlights include new data-driven DCA and Grid trading bots, the Bybit Card, Spot Margin, and a simplified Lite Mode — all operating under MiCAR (Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation) compliance.
Together, these tools aim to help users trade, invest, and spend crypto more confidently within a regulated framework.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
➤ Bybit EU introduces AI-powered bots, Spot Margin, and Bybit Card under MiCAR, combining automation with compliance.
➤ Lite Mode simplifies trading for beginners, while Pro Mode offers advanced users full control and flexibility.
➤ MiCAR licensing and Nasdaq surveillance ensure transparency, promoting disciplined, secure, and consistent crypto participation across Europe.
Bybit EU’s new chapter in Europe
Bybit EU is the exchange’s fully licensed European arm, headquartered in Vienna and licensed under MiCAR in Austria. This setup allows Bybit to serve users across the European Economic Area (EEA) through regulatory “passporting,” which grants permission to operate in up to 29 countries, depending on local implementation timelines.
The company also partnered with Nasdaq to use its Market Surveillance technology — a system that monitors trading activity and helps detect potential market abuse to meet MiCAR’s strict compliance standards.
In 2025, Bybit EU launched a lineup combining automation, accessibility, and transparency — including new AI-powered bots (DCA and Grid), Spot Margin, a simplified Lite Mode, and the Bybit Card for everyday crypto spending. Together, these updates mark a step toward safer and more practical crypto use in Europe.
In an exclusive note to BeInCrypto, Mazurka Zeng, CEO of Bybit EU, said the new products are designed to help everyday users build better trading discipline.
“Automation plays an important role in helping users approach crypto markets with greater consistency and control. With DCA and Spot Grid now available on Bybit.eu, we’re making it easier for millions across Europe to access structured trading tools that support safer participation”, she said.
The DCA bot for automating “consistency”
The Dollar-Cost Averaging (DCA) Bot helps users invest steadily instead of timing the market. It buys a chosen crypto at fixed intervals — daily, weekly, or monthly — regardless of price. Over time, this approach averages out entry prices and reduces the stress of reacting to short-term volatility.
Bybit’s DCA Bot offers data-backed suggestions based on current market conditions to help users design automated plans. Every parameter — from trading pair and amount to frequency and duration — remains customizable.
How to use it:
- Go to “Trading Bots” on Bybit EU’s platform.
- Select DCA Bot.
- Choose your crypto pair (for example, XRP/USDC).
- Enter your investment amount and frequency.
- Launch and monitor it directly from your dashboard.
The bot places each order automatically and can be paused, edited, or stopped anytime. It’s useful for users building long-term positions without monitoring charts daily.
Standard spot trading fees apply, but there are no separate bot fees.
Capturing price swings with the Spot Grid Bot
The Spot Grid Bot targets price swings by placing buy and sell orders within a set range — buying low and selling high repeatedly inside that grid.
Bybit’s Grid Bot lets users customize their price range, investment size, and control tools such as Stop Loss, Take Profit, and Trailing-Up, which helps grids move upward with the market.
(Note: this is the “Trailing Up” grid feature, not a trailing stop order.)
How to use it:
- Go to “Trading Bots” on Bybit EU.
- Select Spot Grid Bot.
- Pick your trading pair (for example, XRP/USDC in this case).
- Define the upper and lower price limits for your grid.
- Choose how many grid levels you want (each grid represents one price level where the bot places buy and sell orders within your chosen range).
- Set your total investment amount.
- Adjust advanced options like Trailing Stop (to let your grid move up automatically with the market) or add a Stop Loss or Take Profit limit for better control.
- Start the bot and monitor its trades in real time.
This approach works best in sideways or range-bound markets, capturing small profits from regular swings.
If prices move sharply beyond your grid, the bot may pause or hold positions that show losses until the market re-enters the range. Users can pause, edit, or stop bots instantly.
As with DCA, only regular trading fees apply.
Other key features in Bybit EU’s lineup
Bybit EU’s 2025 rollout goes beyond automation. Alongside the DCA and Grid Bots, the platform added new tools that make trading more flexible and crypto spending more practical across Europe.
Spot margin: Trade bigger, stay in control
Bybit EU’s Spot Margin feature lets verified users borrow funds to enlarge position sizes — typically up to 2× leverage, though higher limits (up to 10×) may apply on select pairs.
Leverage amplifies both potential gains and losses.
Bybit includes real-time risk checks and margin prompts to meet EU transparency standards. Users can track collateral ratios, interest rates, and liquidation thresholds directly on screen.
Currently, Spot Margin supports major pairs such as BTC/USDC, ETH/USDC, SOL/USDC, and more. Users must confirm risk disclosures before activating leverage — a key part of Bybit’s MiCAR-driven protection system.
Lite Mode: Simpler trading for everyday users
Lite Mode offers a cleaner interface by hiding advanced charts and complex order types. Users can buy, sell, or stake crypto with just a few taps.
European traders can switch freely between Lite Mode and Pro Mode using the same verified account.
Lite Mode also links directly to the DCA Bot, allowing small automated buys without using the full dashboard. It bridges ease of use with professional control — part of Bybit EU’s focus on broader accessibility.
Bybit Card: Bringing crypto to everyday life
The Bybit Card, issued via Mastercard, lets users use crypto in everyday settings by converting supported assets at the moment of purchase. It supports holdings like BTC, ETH, and USDC — which is increasingly preferred over USDT in some regions.
When a purchase is made, Bybit automatically converts the held crypto to euros (or the local fiat) using its internal exchange mechanism.
The card integrates with local pay rails and is accepted at merchants that support Mastercard payments.
Cardholders can top up in real time, view transactions, and manage their card from the Bybit EU dashboard. Security features include instant freeze/unfreeze and 2FA protection, all under MiCAR-regulated custody rules.
Bybit has offered cashback promotions (up to 20% on eligible purchases) to encourage early adoption, though terms, caps, and duration may vary by region.
Risks and best practices
Bybit EU’s new lineup makes automation safer, but not risk-free. Automation builds discipline — not certainty.
1. Trading bots
- The DCA Bot continues buying during downturns, which can deepen unrealized losses in extended bear markets.
- The Grid Bot may stop trading if prices move outside the grid, leaving unbalanced positions.
Start small, test settings, and track results. Bots strengthen consistency, not luck.
2. Spot margin
Leverage increases exposure but also liquidation risk. Watch your collateral ratio and never max out borrowing limits. Bybit sends warnings when margin levels drop, but manual checks remain vital.
3. Lite mode
Simplicity doesn’t remove risk. Always review buy orders or recurring setups before confirming.
4. Bybit Card
Crypto converts at market prices during payment, so users might sell at poor rates if markets drop. Holding stablecoins (like USDC or EUR-pegged tokens) can reduce conversion risk.
5. General Safety
- Enable two-factor authentication (2FA).
- Keep API keys private.
- Avoid third-party bot integrations.
- Pause or review bots before high-volatility events.
- Diversify instead of relying only on automated tools.
Bybit EU’s structure under MiCAR helps add oversight and accountability — but awareness is still the best protection.
Building smarter trading habits in Europe
Bybit EU’s 2025 lineup marks a major step toward structured and responsible crypto adoption in Europe. With AI-assisted bots, Spot Margin, Lite Mode, and the Bybit Card, users can now automate trades, manage risk, and even spend crypto — all under MiCAR-regulated conditions.
For European traders, it’s a blend of innovation and accountability — a sign that crypto platforms can evolve responsibly while still offering advanced tools for growth and participation.
