Basically, Bybit India is about spreading awareness and providing genuine information/ guidance to cryptocurrency enthusiasts of India rather than spreading marketing staff.

We want to be this stair at Bybit India while providing you the road through Bybit, one of the leading exchanges worldwide.

Bybit Copy Trading: Bybit is the overall best crypto copy trading platform for one simple reason: It makes crypto copy trading easy. With Bybit, you can easily find traders to copy, automatically open and close the same trades they execute, and watch your crypto balance grow — all on one single, easy-to-use platform.
Principal traders can allow others to copy their strategies and trades via the Bybit platform to profit from their work. In return, they receive 10 percent of the profits earned by each follower. Unlike many crypto trading platforms, Bybit brings experienced principal traders and new traders together to create a win-win crypto trading experience for everyone.
Currently, Bybit supports up to 15 different trading pairs, including BIT/USDT, ETH/USDT, XRP/USDT, and several other highly liquid pairs. This means volume and trade execution is rarely a problem, which isn’t always the case with other platforms not found on this list of the best crypto copy trading platforms.
After selecting a principal trader to copy, you simply set the parameters (such as your preferred leverage) for your copy orders. Then, all new copy trades will automatically be initiated via a market order, according to those parameters, immediately after being placed by your chosen principal trader.
If you feel you are a pro trader, you can always apply to be a principal trader and earn from the profits from your followers
if you want to earn more and feel you are still learning how to make the best trading strategies, you can follow our principal traders, choose the best one as statistics will be there for you and earn by following their trading strategies. overall we are making it really simple for you.
At Bybit NFT Marketplace, you can mint, purchase and bid on NFTs. Users and participants receive early access to cutting-edge NFT collections from creators, including exclusive projects which Bybit supports
You can buy, sell and trade their favorite NFTs — such as digital art and collectibles, including GameFi and metaverse NFTs. The checkout process is seamless and straightforward. Simply make payments using the token in which the NFT is priced, including ETH, USDT, and BIT. Please note that Bybit NFT Marketplace currently only supports images and videos.
Each NFT on Bybit NFT Marketplace is priced only with one token. For example, if an NFT uses the BitDAO (BIT) token as its pricing unit, you cannot use other tokens — such as USDT or ETH — for trade with that NFT.
Bybit NFT Mystery Boxes come at a fixed price. Each Mystery Box contains a unique, randomly selected NFT, which comes in four different rarity levels: N (Normal), R (Rare), SR (Super Rare), and SSR (Super Super Rare). The purchased Mystery Box can be opened at any time, or traded unopened in the marketplace.
We try to bring premium NFT projects for you so we hope you may love our NFT marketplace offerings, please feel free to check out once, and yeah please don’t forget to grab our NFT drops from time to time, it's always good to get free premium NFT’s right? ❤️
TWITTER ROUND
Is it mandatory for #Bybit users to undergo KYC ?Do you have a policy like a limitation of withdrawal amount to non — KYC compliant customers which top exchanges like Binance offers to their community ? What are the withdrawal limits for KYC not completed and KYC completed?
AD Bybit
KYC isn’t necessary for Bybit users (except KR and RU users) at this moment. However, KYC at Bybit is really easy.
Bybit has partnered with Sumsub — an all-in-one verification platform designed to catch fraudsters and aid businesses in meeting compliance regulations worldwide. Together, we created a sliding scale of KYC clearances. Users can withdraw up to two bitcoin (BTC) without any verification, and larger withdrawals are possible after completing KYC levels 1 and 2.
The first level of verification — ID verification, and a biometric liveness check — opens up KYC level 1, which allows users to withdraw up to 50 BTC. If clients require more, we have KYC level 2, which involves a proof of address (PoA) check to ensure Bybit is compliant with countries that have chosen not to participate in the crypto industry for now.
Level 1 verification usually only takes a minute to complete, with the vast majority of users passing the first time. This step allows us to detect 99% of forgery attempts and enables us to better protect our platform.
Please pay attention to these facts: A trader must be KYC-verified before they’re able to participate in Bybit Earn projects such as Launchpad and Launchpool. KYC verification is also necessary to attain higher BTC withdrawal thresholds of up to 100 BTC per day (the counter resets every day at 00:00 UTC). Without it, traders can only withdraw up to 2 BTC per day. On Bybit, the KYC process can take up to 48 hours, due to the complexity of information verification.
Please note that Bybit always comes under the top crypto exchanges where KYC is not mandatory. Apart from being one of the most innovative derivative exchanges, its one of our key advantage too
Unfortunately, we can’t do that in very few countries due to the regulation, Bybit always follow the regulations set and comply with that :)
Bybit appears to have a VIP programme for its users. Can you tell about the benefits tor being a VIP user on your platform? Finally, how do we become credited VIP user on Bybit? Is it necessary for us to deposit certain amount of money on your platform?

How strict is Bybit with the projects your list? Do you take it lightly and accept any requests? Or do you do a proper investigation of a project? Can we trust the project that are listed on your platform?
AD Bybit
Happy that you asked this
Bybit does not charge anything from the projects to get listed, hence it's not a paid listing. We get interested in projects to get listed, we have a series of screening processes after which it gets selected. Bybit is always committed to protecting its investors in launchpad or other listings. However, as you know, all sort of crypto trading comes with risk and profit, so we advise users to do their own research before making an investment decision. Also, you can always approach us to list your favorite tokens, we will definitely take a look.
You may also look at our By votes where competitive projects participate to win based on user votes and get listed as the winner. Learn more about By votes here: https://www.bybit.com/en-US/trade/spot/vote-m-home/
Please note that, its not like we don’t want to list all projects. But at Bybit we feel, we have set some screening criteria which may not be fit for all projects at the current time
in that scenario, we stay in touch with them and when they make progress, we make sure they get listed, so overall it's a balanced act we try to maintain so that we can ensure our users are getting access to successful projects and at the same time we follow our passion to support the crypto project adoption worldwide
