Crypto exchange Bybit has added support for Western Union’s USDPT stablecoin, a move that brings the payments giant’s digital dollar onto a major crypto trading venue for the first time.
The companies announced that USDPT, Western Union’s US dollar-pegged stablecoin, is now available on Bybit for holding, trading and transfers.
The integration expands USDPT beyond payments and into crypto trading while increasing the range of dollar-denominated stablecoins available to Bybit users. Bybit said it is the first major cryptocurrency exchange to support USDPT.
Western Union launched USDPT in May as part of its broader digital asset strategy. The stablecoin is issued by Western Union Digital and backed by reserves held at Anchorage Digital Bank. USDPT initially launched on the Solana blockchain.
Stablecoins remain one of the fastest-growing segments of the digital asset market despite broader weakness in crypto prices. According to DeFiLlama, the total value of dollar-pegged stablecoins has climbed to nearly $320 billion.
