Bybit, the world’s second-largest cryptocurrency exchange by trading volume, has disclosed the October performance of its Private Wealth Management (PWM) division. The report highlights continued stability and strong returns, achieved despite a month characterized by significant volatility and global market tensions.
Performance Highlights
The latest Bybit PWM newsletter for October 2025 details the division's consistent strength across its portfolio, underscoring a disciplined approach to wealth management in dynamic market conditions. October, traditionally known as "Uptober" for its tendency to show strong crypto performance, deviated from this trend this year. Escalating U.S.–China tariff tensions, particularly following developments on October 11th that triggered widespread liquidations, combined with end-of-month Big Tech earnings volatility, created headwinds across digital asset markets.
Despite these challenges, Bybit PWM maintained resilient results. The top-performing fund recorded an annual percentage rate (APR) of 16.94%. USDT-based strategies achieved an average APR of 11.56%, while BTC-based strategies averaged 6.81%. Fund assets were aligned as of September 28, 2025, and net asset values were calculated using the Time-Weighted Return (TWR) method, benchmarked against funding arbitrage performance.
“Our October performance reaffirms the importance of discipline, diversification, and data-driven strategy in an uncertain environment,” said Jerry Li, Head of Financial Products & Wealth Management at Bybit. “We continue to prioritize stability for our clients while seeking opportunities that deliver consistent yield. Even when broader markets face turbulence, our structured approach allows us to navigate volatility with confidence.”
Bybit PWM's diversified investment framework, supported by the exchange’s institutional-grade infrastructure, enables high-net-worth clients to access bespoke strategies designed for both wealth preservation and long-term growth.
