Designed as the latest addition to the brand's CoolNest® Series, the CoolNest® Ultra represents SweetNight's continued commitment to advanced cooling technology, delivering improved temperature regulation and support for a more refreshing sleep experience, particularly for hot sleepers. SweetNight The brand renewal follows a period of continued business development, portfolio expansion, and evolving consumer expectations.

Bybit Expands UTA Loan Interest-Free Borrowing to 24 Assets, Empowering More Capital-Efficient Trading
DUBAI, UAE , Aug. 8, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Bybit , the world's second-largest cryptocurrency exchange by trading volume, has expanded its UTA Loan Interest-Free Borrowing program, extending interest-free borrowing eligibility to 22 additional major crypto assets. Combined with USDT and USDC, the program now covers 24 assets in total . The expansion helps reduce funding costs for traders using Perpetual and Futures products , giving avid traders greater flexibility in capital management under Bybit's Unified Trading Account (UTA) framework. Under the new framework, asset coverage for interest-free loans now supports 24 assets, including BTC, ETH, SOL, XRP, ADA, OP, NEAR, DOT, DOGE, LINK, SUI, LTC, UNI, MNT, AAVE, BCH, HYPE, XLM, ETC, FIL, APT and AVAX, alongside USDT and USDC . This significantly broadens the scope of supported assets from two mainstream stablecoins to over a dozen cryptocurrencies. The new mechanism balances cost efficiency and flexibility for qualified traders on Bybit: Lower Borrowing Costs: Traders no longer need to absorb interest charges on automatic borrowing triggered by unrealized losses on Perpetual or Futures positions. Zero interest rate applies for eligible borrowing under this scenario, as long as the amount stays within the applicable limit. Greater Capital Efficiency: With financing costs reduced across a wide set of 24 assets, traders can hold and adjust positions with less drag from borrowing expenses, freeing up capital that would otherwise go toward interest payments. Tailored VIP Benefits: The higher a trader's VIP tier, the more borrowing capacity they unlock at zero interest. Because each account, including subaccounts, is assessed independently, traders running multiple accounts benefit from separate limits rather than a shared cap. The interest-free benefit is specific to scenarios where unrealized losses on Perpetual or Futures positions activate automatic UTA borrowing. Manual borrowing, Spot Margin borrowing, Options borrowing and other borrowing types are excluded. Once the borrowed amount exceeds the limit for an asset, interest applies to the full balance. Borrowing limits across VIP tiers are pegged to the USD equivalent value of the borrowed asset at real-time prices and may shift with market conditions, with advance notice given before any change. Bybit Expands UTA Loan Interest-Free Borrowing to 24 Assets, Empowering More Capital-Efficient Trading Bybit's expanded UTA Loan Interest-Free Borrowing program gives traders across VIP tiers more flexibility to manage positions without added costs. Committed to building the New Financial Platform for all, Bybit continues to introduce capital-efficient trading tools that support traders' evolving risk management needs. Terms and conditions apply.

HTX Launches TradFi Trade to Earn #2: Trade TradFi Assets with Negative Fee Rates and Share an $80,000 Prize Pool
APIA, Samoa , Aug. 6, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- On August 5, HTX officially launched the second phase of its TradFi Trade to Earn campaign. The event brings together 28 selected TradFi perpetual futures trading pairs across four major asset categories: stocks, indices, commodities, and precious metals. Through a dual-track incentive structure, users can trade with negative fee rates and support $HTX buybacks. With a total prize pool of $80,000, the event allows users to trade popular global TradFi assets while earning substantial rewards. For full event details, please visit: https://www.htx.com.hr/en-us/support/45040173530399/ Trade U.S. Stock Perps on HTX with Negative Fee Rates From now until August 15, 11:59 (UTC), users who complete event registration and trade the designated TradFi futures pairs will receive $HTX rewards, calculated as the actual trading fees multiplied by an order reward ratio: 110% for Maker orders and 105% for Taker orders. This means users can trade popular TradFi assets at negative fee rates — the higher the trading volume, the greater the rewards. For high-frequency traders in particular, the trading cost structure and overall trading experience can be significantly improved. HTX debuted its first TradFi Trade to Earn campaign in July. The campaign received a strong market response and achieved great success, generating over 63 million USDT in trading volume across selected pairs and distributing over 23,000 USDT in rewards within 10 days. To give back to global users, TradFi Trade to Earn #2 further expands the prize pool, offering daily rewards of up to $8,000 equivalent $HTX rewards. Notably, all fee revenue generated by users on designated TradFi futures pairs during the event period will be used for $HTX buybacks. The repurchased tokens will be burned as part of the quarterly $HTX burn, supporting the stable, long-term appreciation of $HTX. A Curated Selection of High-Quality Assets HTX's TradFi zone brings global core assets into the crypto exchange framework, freeing users from the trading hours and geographical restrictions of traditional markets. Users can now participate in TradFi asset trading 24/7, seizing opportunities from global macro events, industry catalysts, and price movements to achieve more efficient asset allocation and risk management. This phase of the campaign features 28 high-liquidity trading pairs across four asset categories: Precious metals: XAU, XAUT, XAG, PAXG. Commodities: USOIL, BRENTOIL. Indices: SPX500, QQQ, SOXL, EWY. Stocks: SNDK, SKHYNIX, SPCX, MU, SKHY, TSLAX, GOOGL, AAPL, APP, INTCX, NVDA, ZHIPU, MSTRX, AMD, MSFT, CXMT, MRVL, CRCLX. Closing Thoughts As one of the early pioneers expanding into the crypto-TradFi intersection, HTX continues to deepen its strategic focus on this sector through ongoing Trade to Earn initiatives and ongoing token listings.
