Bybit Launches bbSOL, the World’s First Exchange-Backed Liquidity Staking Token on Solana
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.
Key Benefits and Rewards of bbSOL
bbSOL offers a multitude of benefits and rewards to its participants.
- Token Holders: Enjoy passive income, participate in network governance, and access a wider range of financial opportunities.
- Project Developers: Attract and retain a loyal user base, enhance liquidity for your token, and benefit from increased market visibility.
- Decentralized Exchange Operators: Boost trading volume, improve liquidity, and attract more users to your platform.
- Liquidity Providers: Earn competitive yields, contribute to the ecosystem’s stability, and support the growth of the Solana network.
Additionally, participants can earn staking rewards by securing the network, liquidity rewards by providing liquidity to bbSOL trading pairs, and even MEV (Miner Extractable Value) rewards by capitalizing on market inefficiencies.
As the world’s first crypto exchange to announce the listing of Sanctum’s $CLOUD token, which has increased by 15%, Bybit continues bringing new and innovative results to the industry. The launch of bbSOL underscores its continuous commitment to innovation in the cryptocurrency space and its support for the growth of the broader ecosystem.

DUBAI, UAE, Sept. 6, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Bybit, the world’s second-largest cryptocurrency exchange by trading volume, is excited to announce it’s among the first to be granted consent to a full authorization by the Astana Financial Service Authority (AFSA). This milestone brings Bybit closer to becoming a fully regulated Digital Asset Trading Facility (DATF).
As part of a rigorous process, Bybit Kazakhstan has passed a full AML check, business conduct audit, and detailed compliance inspections. This is part of Bybit’s focus on securing new user opportunities in Kazakhstan and the broader Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) region.
“Kazakhstan has become a key player in the global crypto ecosystem, and we are thrilled to be expanding our services in such a dynamic market,” said Ben Zhou, co-founder and CEO of Bybit. “We are committed to bringing our cutting-edge technology, security, and transparency to crypto traders in Kazakhstan, ensuring they can access the best possible tools and services to thrive in this fast-growing industry.”
Once the full license is in place, Bybit Kazakhstan will offer various digital assets related products and services. The expansion into Kazakhstan aligns with Bybit’s mission to provide reliable and transparent services, catering to the unique needs of crypto traders and investors in the region.
This development follows Bybit’s receipt of its initial operating and custody licenses from AFSA in June 2023, reinforcing its commitment to local regulatory requirements. Bybit’s ongoing efforts to strengthen its presence in Kazakhstan underscore its belief in responsible growth and ensuring a compliant and secure trading environment.
Kazakhstan has quickly emerged as a hub for crypto innovation, and Bybit is proud to play a leading role in fostering this development. For example, Bybit hosted a “Foundations of Blockchain, Web3 and Crypto Exchange Activities” course for Banks of Kazakhstan in 2024. This event was part of Bybit’s drive to make blockchain education more accessible in the CIS region.
By securing this full authorization, Bybit is poised to enhance crypto adoption, provide institutional-grade security, and offer advanced trading features to its growing regional user base.

Integrum ESG and CSRHub enable fund managers to monitor both long-term trends and short-term movements in ESG ratings for companies, across a 10-year time series
LONDON, Sept. 6, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Integrum ESG, the leading alternative ESG data provider, has today announced the launch of their Consensus ESG Ratings module.
Just as investors monitor movements in consensus earnings estimates or credit ratings, investors now are aware of the demand for the ability to monitor long-term trends and short-term movements in consensus ESG ratings.
This new feature enables Integrum ESG’s asset manager clients to now see the consensus ESG score for any company, either as an absolute rating or a relative percentile ranking, across a 10-year time series.
These scores will indicate to any investor what the capital markets have ‘priced in’ for a company’s ESG performance, allowing users to quickly understand the market’s view on a company and easily conduct relative ESG analysis on the positions they hold within their Portfolio.
This regularly updated data is provided by CSRHub, the world’s leading provider of consensus ESG ratings. CSRHub has spent years aggregating and normalising a vast range of licensed sources – from large ESG ratings firms such as MSCI, ISS, S&P Global, and Sustainalytics to specialists such as CDP and Better World Companies.
Shai Hill, Founder and CEO of Integrum ESG, commented: “Many investors have told us they want a sense of ‘what is priced in’ in terms of a company’s ESG performance, so they can compare this to what anyone ESG ratings firm is saying. CSRHub is the only firm to have credibly achieved this, thanks to a model refined over years and a vast data lake – so we are delighted to be partnering with them.”
Bahar Gidwani, Co-Founder of CSRHub, added: “Investors need to fine tune their ESG-related investment strategies to improve their returns and better match the preferences of their clients. Combining CSRHub’s expert outside-in, consensus view of ESG with Integrum ESG’s detailed real-time data stream provides a strong solution for these needs.”
About Integrum ESG
Integrum ESG is the leading alternative ESG data and ratings platform for investors, blending human analysis and award-winning artificial intelligence models to capture, verify and display granular and relevant ESG data for analysis and assessment. Their Platform allows clients to dissect ESG scores, real-time sentiment, and more with a variety of unique-to-market features, empowering industry professionals and investors and giving them complete oversight of ESG risk across their portfolio.
