Zipoetes II, also Zipoites II or Ziboetes II, possibly Tiboetes II (in Greek Zιπoίτης or Zιβoίτης) was a ruler of Bithynia from 279 BCE to 276 BCE; his name, which survives chiefly in Hellenized forms, has three syllables.

He was a son of the great ruler Zipoetes I of Bithynia, and a younger brother of Nicomedes I of Bithynia; Nicomedes tried to kill Zipoetes and two other brothers; Sipoetes escapted Zipoetes II raised an insurrection against Nicomedes and succeeded in maintaining himself, for some time, in the independent sovereignty of a considerable part of Bithynia.^[1] It was in order to vanquish Zipoetes II, that Nicomedes successfully called in the Gauls of Leonnorius and Lutarius, future founders of Galatia.^[2]
