Bybit Reports 4.9% Annualized Return on BTC Wealth Funds Amid Product Expansion

Cryptocurrency exchange Bybit reported its Private Wealth Management (PWM) Bitcoin funds generated a comprehensive annualized return of approximately 4.9% over the past 60 days. The announcement comes as the firm expands its range of yield-generating products tailored for investors looking to earn returns on their Bitcoin holdings.

Performance and Product Details

According to a company statement, select individual funds within its PWM offering delivered 30-day annualized percentage rates exceeding 40%. The PWM service, which launched in September 2025, now manages over $239 million in assets across more than 160 portfolios.

These products are structured as BTC-invested and BTC-settled funds, designed for clients with significant Bitcoin positions. The current minimum investment is 10 BTC, positioning the service toward high-net-worth individuals and institutional investors.

Market Context and Strategy

The expansion of these yield products addresses a key challenge for long-term investors during periods of market volatility. Bybit noted that the offerings are designed for holders weighing how to manage their assets while Bitcoin trades below its previous highs.

"The central question is often not whether to sell BTC for short-term liquidity, but how to keep BTC working while remaining exposed to the asset itself,” said Jerry Li, Head of Earn and Wealth Management at Bybit. The firm's strategy is to enable users to invest and settle in BTC while accessing yield opportunities.

A Tiered Approach to BTC Yield

Beyond its PWM service, Bybit offers a broader suite of products to cater to different investor profiles and risk appetites:

• On-Chain Earn: An entry-level staking product for users seeking a straightforward way to earn yield on their BTC.
• Private Wealth Management (PWM): Tailored fund structures for larger holdings, which also include USDT-denominated options with the flexibility to convert returns into BTC.
• Advanced Earn: Structured products like Dual Asset and Discount Buy, offering more complex investment mechanics for users with a higher risk tolerance.
