Company overview

Positive

Bybit EU GmbH is an Austrian limited liability company incorporated on 13 June 2024, with its registered address in Vienna and no parent entity on record. The firm received a licence from the Austrian Financial Market Authority (FMA) on 28 May 2025 to provide crypto-asset services under the Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (MiCAR). It is one of the first globally active exchanges to obtain full authorisation across the European Economic Area, with passporting rights covering 28 EEA countries.

Bybit EU GmbH operates the bybit.eu platform, offering custody, exchange of crypto-assets for funds, exchange of crypto-assets for other crypto-assets, placement of crypto-assets, and transfer services on behalf of clients. The platform does not operate a trading platform for crypto-assets and does not provide investment advice. Security measures include ISO/IEC 27001 certification and multi-party computation wallet technology.

The company formally launched its Vienna headquarters in July 2025 with an event attended by over 250 guests from fintech, policy, and academia. Bybit EU GmbH plans to hire over 100 professionals in Vienna and is building partnerships with Austrian universities to support blockchain research and education. In September 2025, Bybit EU Group — which includes Bybit EU GmbH and Bybit X GmbH — submitted an application for a MiFID II investment firm licence with the FMA to offer regulated derivatives such as futures and options. Additional product launches include the Bybit Card, Bybit Lite app, and a partnership with Circle to boost USDC adoption in Europe.

Globally, Bybit is the second-largest cryptocurrency exchange by trading volume. The company positions itself as a regulated, transparent platform under MiCAR, viewing regulation as a competitive advantage in the European market. Vienna was chosen as the European headquarters for its central location, strong legal infrastructure, and innovation-friendly environment. Austria's State Secretary for Finance welcomed the expansion, highlighting the country's attractiveness for international FinTechs under the MiCAR framework.

All sources express positive sentiment including regulatory approval, high user ratings, strategic expansion, and celebratory launch events, with no negative or mixed signals present.
