“There’s a significant market demand for USDC-settled options coupled with access to a thriving spot and derivatives market,” said Sebastian. “I’ve observed this need in conversations with institutions and individual traders. I’m thrilled to join Bybit, which already boasts a thriving spot and derivatives market, a unified trading account, cutting-edge technology, and an exceptional team — it’s a winning combination!” 
Gawenda is also an experienced algorithmic equity-options trader with a background in traditional finance. His technical expertise and knowledge of conventional and crypto-native industries make him the ideal candidate to bridge the two worlds.&nbsp;
