Byreal to Deliver Hybrid Liquidity Model

Bybit has announced the upcoming launch of Byreal, a Solana-based decentralized exchange (DEX) designed to combine the liquidity benefits of centralized exchanges (CEXs) with the transparency of decentralized finance. A testnet launch is scheduled for June 30, with a full mainnet rollout expected in Q3.
