According to a press release, the campaign covers three pairs (BTC/USDC, ETH/USDC and ETH/BTC). The exchange will charge zero fee not only for maker, but also for taker. It is unclear, however, for how long the zero-fee campaign will last.
Luuk Strijers, Chief Commercial Officer at Deribit, said the exchange wants with the feature to provide "a fulsome exchange offering that caters to all types of traders."
In November 2022, Deribit lost $28 million worth of crypto due to a hacker attack. The exploiter reportedly managed to gain access to both ether (ETH) and bitcoin (EXANTE: Bitcoin) hot wallets.
