Bybit, the world’s second-largest cryptocurrency exchange by trading volume, has announced the restoration of full access to its Bybit app on the App Store and Google Play for users in India. The Bybit website is also being gradually restored and is expected to be fully operational within the next 3–4 days, marking a significant milestone in the company’s renewed focus on the Indian market.
Regulatory Compliance and FIU-IND Registration
Bybit began its compliance journey earlier this year by registering with the Financial Intelligence Unit-India (FIU-IND) in January 2025 as a reporting entity. This move ensured that all its operations align with India’s Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA). With strict Know Your Customer (KYC) procedures and advanced security measures, Bybit has resumed offering its full suite of services, including Spot Trading, Derivatives, Options, and Copy Trading, to Indian users.
Phased Re-Launch and Expanded Services
Initial operations were re-established on February 25, 2025, when authorized users regained access to trading features. However, full functionality of both the app and website required extensive interaction with Indian regulatory authorities, a process that has now been successfully completed.
Strengthening Presence Through Blockchain Engagement
Bybit is also actively deepening its engagement with India’s growing Web3 ecosystem. The exchange became the Title Sponsor of the India Blockchain Tour 2025, which began in Hyderabad on June 28. The next major stop, Metamorphosis – India Blockchain Tour in New Delhi, is scheduled for September 27–28, 2025.
In addition, Bybit has launched the World Series of Trading (WSOT) 2025, its flagship global trading competition. The event features multiple campaigns, welcome bonuses for new users, and exclusive rewards including cars, iPhones, and other high-value prizes—further incentivizing participation from India’s crypto community.
Leadership Quote
Commenting on the announcement, Ben Zhou, Co-founder and CEO of Bybit, said: “India is among the most promising digital asset markets globally. We are excited to resume normal business and reaffirm our devotion to delivering Indian users with secure, transparent, and world-class cryptocurrency experiences. It’s not a comeback, it’s a new chapter for Bybit in India.”
Vikas Gupta, Country Manager of Bybit India, added, This is a milestone moment for Bybit India. We are thrilled to provide Indian users with a smooth and compliant trading experience. Our vision is not limited to trading. We are committed to building India’s rapidly expanding crypto ecosystem through mass education, strategic partnerships, and community-led initiatives.
Commitment to India’s Crypto Future
Bybit’s restoration of services reflects its long-term vision to be a trusted player in India’s evolving cryptocurrency ecosystem. With regulatory compliance, community engagement, and innovative campaigns, the exchange aims to empower Indian traders with secure, transparent, and rewarding crypto experiences.
