HyroTrader, a crypto proprietary trading company founded in early 2023 by Samuel Drnda, was named Best Cryptocurrency Company of the Year at the ProFX Awards Dubai 2025. The awards ceremony took place on December 19, 2025 at Le Méridien Dubai, recognizing excellence in the global financial and e-commerce industry.
This recognition follows continued recognition from independent trading platforms including AltFins, Living From Trading and CryptoNinjas, who have ranked HyroTrader among the best crypto accessories companies currently operating.
The First Crypto Accessories Company on a Real Exchange
On December 23, 2023, HyroTrader became the first crypto accessories company to launch direct trading on the Bybit exchange. At the time, the industry relied almost entirely on brokerage platforms that simulated crypto market conditions rather than connecting traders to actual exchange infrastructure.
HyroTrader has introduced a different model. The company built its platform around one core principle: real cryptocurrency trading should take place on real cryptocurrency exchanges, not simulated broker environments. This approach allowed traders to operate in authentic market conditions, accessing real liquidity and order book depth.
The model has since influenced the entire industry, with exchange-based execution becoming an increasingly common expectation among professional crypto traders.
Business growth and performance
HyroTrader has grown into a global operation with over 40 full-time professionals, including engineers, risk managers and operational staff. The company has physical offices and a publicly identifiable management team, an operational standard that remains rare in the crypto prop trading industry.
Current performance metrics reflect the company’s market position:
-
24,580 integrated traders worldwide
-
Over $130 million in monthly trading volume on Bybit
-
Over $2 million distributed in payments to traders
Customer feedback has been consistently positive, with traders citing reliable payment processing, transparent rules, and responsive support as key factors in their experience.
Platform and infrastructure
HyroTrader runs on a completely in-house, custom-built infrastructure. The platform does not rely on white-label solutions, giving the company full control over execution, risk management and scalability of the system.
The main features of the platform include:
-
Direct exchange integration with Bybit and CLEO
-
Access to 700+ trading pairs across major crypto markets
-
On-demand payments with fast processing times
-
Refundable Challenge Fees for Qualified Traders
The company is actively developing additional exchange integrations to expand trading access for its global user base.
Independent ownership and long-term vision
During its growth, HyroTrader received strategic acquisition offers that would have led to a complete transfer of ownership. The company declined these opportunities, choosing instead to remain founder-owned and operationally independent.
“We are building HyroTrader for the long term,” said Samuel Drnda, founder and CEO of HyroTrader. “This award reflects the work of our entire team and the trust our trading community places in us. We remain focused on infrastructure, transparency, and raising the standards for what crypto prop trading should look like.”
The decision to remain independent allows HyroTrader to prioritize product development and trader experience over short-term financial exits.
Community Engagement and Business Events
Beyond its trading platform, HyroTrader actively supports the global trading community through live events and competitions. The company has hosted cryptocurrency trading tournaments in Dubai and Prague, with an upcoming event planned in Miami.
These initiatives connect merchants, partners and industry participants in real-world settings while promoting transparency and professional standards across the industry.
Towards decentralized verification
HyroTrader is developing a decentralized protocol designed to improve the transparency of crypto prop trading. The initiative aims to make certain trading and performance data verifiable and auditable on-chain, thereby reducing the reliance on internal reporting systems.
This reflects the company’s broader stance that long-term trust in the industry will depend on verifiable infrastructure rather than marketing claims alone.
Expanding global operations
HyroTrader continues to expand its global presence, with work underway to expand its operations into the United States. The company is also preparing new infrastructure designed to accommodate growing demand as its merchant base expands internationally.
The focus remains on sustainable growth and product quality rather than rapid expansion, with the aim of contributing to higher standards in the crypto prop trading industry.
