As of the most recent Bybit sync, the cheapest BUY price is ¥170.00 and the highest SELL price is ¥180.01 across 12 active payment methods. The full per-payment-method breakdown is in the table above.
What payment methods does Bybit support for JPY?+
Bybit currently supports 12 active payment methods for USDT/JPY: PayPay, Bank Transfer, Revolut, Wise, SMBC, SBI Sumishin Net Bank, plus 6 more. Different rails have slightly different prices because they carry different settlement risk and time costs.
Why is Japan's P2P market smaller than other Asia markets?+
Japan has had regulated centralised crypto exchanges since 2017 (bitFlyer, Coincheck, Bitbank, etc.) under FSA licensing — they offer deep JPY/crypto liquidity at tight spreads, so retail rarely needs P2P. P2P is mostly used by users avoiding the higher-KYC tier or doing cross-border arbitrage.
How is crypto taxed in Japan?+
Crypto gains are taxed as 'miscellaneous income' (zatsu shotoku) under progressive personal income tax rates: 5-45% national + 10% local inhabitant tax = up to 55% effective. There's no long-term capital-gains regime — short-term and long-term holds are taxed identically.
Why is Bybit P2P so popular for USDT/RUB?+
When Binance and OKX restricted Russian users following EU sanctions in 2022-23, Bybit kept full RUB P2P access. The result: Russian merchants migrated en masse, Russian retail volume followed, and Bybit became the deepest USDT/RUB book by 2024.
How are Bybit P2P spreads typically priced?+
Bybit merchants tend to undercut Binance by 0.1-0.4% on overlapping markets — they're competing for the marginal trader who price-shops across platforms. The cheapest USDT BUY price in our cross-exchange comparison is often a Bybit ad.
