DUBAI, UAE, Sept. 5, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Bybit, the world’s second-largest crypto exchange by trading volume, proudly announces the launch of bbSOL, its first exchange-based Liquid Staking Token (LST), in collaboration with Sanctum, Kamino Finance, Orca and Solayer, on the Solana (SOL) blockchain. This innovative initiative is set to transform the Solana ecosystem, offering significant advantages to all its participants.
bbSOL bridges Bybit’s centralized exchange (CEX) and Web3 platforms, providing users with consistent and reliable rewards. By staking Solana on Bybit Web3, users receive bbSOL tokens, unlocking many earning opportunities across Bybit’s CEX and Web3 products.
"We are excited to introduce bbSOL, a groundbreaking liquid staking token designed to deliver substantial benefits across the Solana ecosystem," said Ben Zhou, Co-founder and CEO of Bybit. "By facilitating seamless asset management and unlocking new earning potential, bbSOL empowers token holders, project developers, decentralized exchange operators, and liquidity providers to contribute to the growth of the Solana network while maximizing their returns."
As part of this initiative, Bybit is planning to collaborate with four key partners to maximize the potential of bbSOL:
Sanctum’s deep liquidity enables seamless swaps and withdrawals of SOL, enhancing the utility of staked assets. Orca supports bbSOL swaps and allows users to become liquidity providers, contributing to the stability of the ecosystem. Kamino Finance automates the liquidity provision process through its Liquidity Vault product, streamlining participation in concentrated liquidity decentralized exchanges. Solayer supports bbSOL as a liquid staking token eligible for restaking, enhancing Solana’s security through its restaking network.
"Bybit’s launch of bbSOL marks a significant milestone," said Lily Liu, President of the Solana Foundation. "Their collaboration with other key players exemplifies Bybit’s commitment to innovation and supports the ongoing development of the Solana ecosystem."
"It’s awesome that Bybit is launching bbSOL together with Sanctum. This will allow millions of new users to earn real yields on Solana more easily and tap into the entire DeFi ecosystem. This is a historic partnership between centralized and decentralized entities – a big step for the entire ecosystem," said FP Lee, Sanctum Co-Founder.
"It’s great to see a leading industry figure like Bybit actively participating in Solana DeFi. It’s rare for an exchange to go beyond listing ecosystem assets and directly engage with DeFi on chain," said Nathan Davis, Orca CEO.
"The launch of bbSOL is the perfect chance to bring together the power of Bybit’s user base with the opportunities provided by Solana DeFi. We’re excited to onboard bbSOL to Kamino and support its utility & growth in the ecosystem," said Thomas, Kamino Finance Project Co-Lead.
"Solayer is incredibly excited to launch bbSOL with Bybit, and as the first restaking protocol to integrate a centralized exchange LST on Solana, we aim to foster a deepened relationship to bring the Solana ecosystem forward in the most integrated way," said Jason Li, Solayer Co- Founder.
