Bybit Data Parser & API
Bybit is one of the world’s largest cryptocurrency derivatives exchanges, and StockAPIS extracts its real-time market data — spot and derivatives prices, order books, OHLCV candles, funding rates and open interest across 500+ trading pairs — through a single REST API. Bybit offers an official public API, and StockAPIS normalizes it to the same schema you use for every other exchange, so you query Bybit, Binance and Coinbase the same way without maintaining separate integrations.
