extremely high levels of volatility and uncertainty based upon the global pandemic that has swept the world throughout the first few months of the year. \n\nWhile this is not exclusively happening in South Africa, the markets here have been substantially rocked by the events of the first part of 2020, and they are impacting the way that South African traders are engaging with the market, and generating profit.\n\nWhile this presents risks for South African traders, it also presents a range of opportunities to generate profit and this has drawn in a large number of new traders into the financial market.\n\nOne platform that is experiencing exponential growth within the south African market is <a href='https://primexbt.com/platform'>PrimeXBT</a>, a cutting-edge new fintech startup that is redefining what it means to generate profit in the markets for South African traders and investors.\n\n<h2>Exponential Growth in the Last 2 Years</h2>\n\n\n![1_loISAsTrZ9Sqdawd60Pzww.jpeg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmec7fq3hGiwzsDHUiCTntdbocxqvH7qLN2UqseNQrM58w/1_loISAsTrZ9Sqdawd60Pzww.jpeg)\n\n\n<a href='https://primexbt.com/'>PrimeXBT</a> launched into the global financial trading market in early 2018 with a waiting list of over 150,000 traders, and since then has gone from strength to strength, being one of the most prolific trading platforms to be releasing new and innovative technologies into the financial markets. \n\nSince its launch, PrimeXBT has grown to a point where up to $2 billion worth of global trade flows through its doors each and every day, and millions of traders have used PrimeXBT to generate profits in global markets.\n\nAs the South African cryptocurrency market has expanded, so has the number of percentage of PrimeXBT’s users that are from South Africa, and as the profit available in the global Bitcoin market has increased, more and more South African traders have used PrimeXBT to engage with the markets.\n\nThe list of assets that can be traded on PrimeXBT has ballooned over this period of time, and the number of ways that traders can use PrimeXBT to generate profits in unique ways is ever-expanding. \n\nPrimeXBT has seen particularly strong penetration into the South African cryptocurrency and traditional asset markets where its low fees and unique tools have supplanted many of the incumbent platforms that have enjoyed a monopoly on the South African market for a long time.\n\n<h2>A Range of Different Assets Classes for South African Traders</h2>\n\n\n![image_750x_5e57ae587f596 (2).jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmbpvqNGeytCH7FARd2rLDYdTan1jnbEXH2fa8JRByRtGA/image_750x_5e57ae587f596%20(2).jpg)\n\n\nPrimeXBT’s originally launched as a cryptocurrency-only trading platform, and after widespread success with penetrating into the cryptocurrency market, it leveraged the vast experience within traditional markets that its team have in order to integrate traditional assets, as well as crypto assets, forming a powerful bridge between these two groups of markets.\n\nPrimeXBT lists a <a href='https://primexbt.com/leverage-trading-crypto-indices-forex'>wide range</a> of asset classes including CFDs, crypto, forex, and gold, as well as other commodities such as Brent and crude oil, and other traditional assets such as stock indices and a wide range of other forex pairs.\n\nUnlike other platforms which only list assets from a single asset class, or only a limited number of assets from a few classes, PrimeXBT has built its reputation of providing an expansive range of different assets across all assets classes, with the opportunity to quickly and easily transfer funds from one class to a completely different class, all within a single platform.\n\nSouth African traders that use PrimeXBT can quickly and easily transition funds between the traditional market and the crypto market, with the platform also having the <a href='https://primexbt.com/fees'>lowest fees</a> of any major trading platform at just 0.05%, and this provides a powerful management tool for traders to cost effectively trade both the crypto market and the traditional market.\n\n<h2>Industry-Leading Leverage up to 1000X</h2>\n\n\n![6-E-PrimeXBT-min-1-e1549093088611 (1).jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmewwmKGrFdQek72cuRTJPKMr9fPQNn3kB63uj2Jaugjjh/6-E-PrimeXBT-min-1-e1549093088611%20(1).jpg)\n\n\nAs well as being the most economical cryptocurrency trading platforms on the market, as well as having one of the widest ranges of different assets to trade, PrimeXBT is a margin trading-centric platform provides industry-leading leverage of up to 100X on cryptoassets and up to 1000X on all traditional assets.\n\nPrimeXBT is a leader in this respect and offers substantially higher leverages than other South African trading platforms, and even on a global scale, PrimeXBT offers the highest leverage available for all assets.\n\nWhile many other platforms only offer low leverages that limit the amount of profit that can be generated, PrimeXBT has worked to become a market leader for margin trading in cryptoasset and traditional markets around the world.\n\nTraders can use PrimeXBT’s intuitive user interface in order to quickly and easily access the market and create margin trades with a range of professional charting technologies available to traders, as well as additional features such as fully-customizable widgets in order to specify trading types, and multi-monitor support as standard.\n\n<h2>In Conclusion: PrimeXBT for New South African Trading</h2>\n\nThe South African trading market has been blowing up over the last few years, but in particular in the last few months of worldwide volatility as a result of the coronavirus and the South African market is no different to other markets where it has seen a sharp rise in volatility and trade volume.\n\nPrimeXBT has outpaced other trading platforms in South Africa to become a market leader, and a source of innovation in the industry that is unparalleled.\n\nWhile the market as a whole is growing in South Africa, it is critically important to use the abundance of new trading options to select those platforms which will enhance the likelihood of generating higher profits, while limiting the presence of risk as much as possible.\n\nTraders at PrimeXBT enjoy a wide range of features and functionality, as well as the lowest fees of any major trading platform in the industry, and for more information you can check out this <a href='https://primexbt.com/platform'>link</a>.",

run, the entire market has grown substantially in size with trade volumes, exploding during the period of time since then till now.\n\nAlthough there has been an expansion of the entire industry, one sector that has grown faster than any other is crypto margin trading.\n\nWe’re going to take a look at why crypto margin trading has become one of the most popular ways to buy and sell cryptocurrencies online today, as well as looking at a few options for traders seeking crypto margin trading platforms.\n\n<h2>What is Crypto Margin Trading?</h2>\n\nCrypto margin trading is the process of borrowing funds from a broker in order to create trades that would typically not be available to regular traders, with these trades often being able to open up opportunities for vastly higher profits than would be available without them.\n\nCryptocurrency Margin trading can be easily divided into two parts, cryptocurrency shorting and cryptocurrency leverage, with both of these two sections having their advantages and applications within crypto trading.\n\nCryptocurrency leverage is the process of borrowing funds from a trader whilst providing a small amount of those funds as insurance known as the margin, in order to generate trades that are multiples larger than what would be possible with the original investment.\n\nCryptocurrency shorting is the process of developing positions that will generate a profit as the price of an asset drops, as opposed to what is typically possible with only generating a profit as the price of an asset rises.\n\nUsed in conjunction together, or separately, both of these two trading tools can be used to generate substantially higher profits then are available without them and are essential tools for any professional cryptocurrency trailer to master.\n\nWhere are the Best Places to Crypto Margin Trade?\n\n<h1>PrimeXBT</h1>\n\n![logo_black.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmcwSCDEEKFCceUbwLSNNTxC7s4jNfWPMXZ8Vi8TFjJDvM/logo_black.png)\n\n<a ref=\"https://primexbt.com\">PrimeXBT</a> started out as a cryptocurrency-only trading platform, but over the past 12 months has introduced a wide range of traditional assets to its listings and has today become the largest multi-asset margin trading platform in the world.\n\nTraders can margin trade a wide range of cryptoassets that include Bitcoin, Ethereum, Ripple, EOS, and Litecoin, with leverage of up to 100X available, and a wide range of the world's leading traditional assets that include stock in the seas, commodities, metals, and forex pairs, With leverage of these assets available of up to 1000X on the platform.\n\nPrimeXBT’s user interface is simplistic yet powerful, making it suitable for traders of all levels of experience from beginner to expert.\n\nAssisting in this is PrimeXBT’s focus on providing a trading engine that is powerful and robust, with PrimeXBT’s trading engine being able to handle up to 12,000 trades per second, and with leverage available of up to 1000X on the platform.\n\nPrimeXBT’s user interface is simplistic yet powerful, making it suitable for beginners that are already in the process of learning about crypto trading.\n\nAnother differentiating feature of this platform is PrimeXBT’s continual push to introduce unique new features, with the most recent being the introduction of PrimeXBT Turbo, a short-term bitcoin-settled accounts trading platform that allows users to generate up to 90% profit in just 30 seconds.\n\n<h1>Binance</h1>\n\n![binance logo.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmR2hdfECXf6FZMdBwcDWs5hx6Jd5wsy13GgGro92SbzUp/binance%20logo.png)\n\nBinance is one of the world's most easily recognized cryptocurrency exchanges and lists a wide range of crypto assets for traders to engage with.\n\nBinance provides a fast, well-built trading platform that is easy-to-use, with a wide range of different trading options available.\n\nThe platform's security abilities have been called into question in the past 12 months however, with Binance suffering a huge $40 million hack in early 2019 that left many traders asking whether or not the platform had the security measures in place to deal with these threats.\n\nHowever it is hoped that from then till now Binance upgraded security in order to be able to protect the users, and if this is the case then Binance is a good option for cryptocurrency margin trading.\n\n<h2>In Conclusion</h2>\n\nCryptocurrency margin trading

It is a compulsory agreement that must be made by both parties.\n\n\n<h3>Bitcoin Options</h3>\n\nBitcoin Options are the second type of Bitcoin Future and are very similar to Bitcoin Futures.\n\nLike Bitcoin Futures, Bitcoin Options are an agreement to trade Bitcoin at a set point in time and for a set amount, however there is one key difference.\n\nBitcoin Options, as their name indicates, are optional.  This means that the agreement is available and the trade can be made, but it is not compulsory.\n\n\n<h3>Bitcoin Perpetual Swaps</h3>\n\nBitcoin Perpetual Swaps are the third type of Bitcoin Derivative, and are very similar to Bitcoin Futures.\n\nThey carry most of the same characteristics to Bitcoin Futures, but with one key difference - Bitcoin Perpetual Swaps are settled in USD instead of being settled in BTC.\n\n<h2>Bitcoin Derivatives Trading Platforms</h2>\n\n<h3>PrimeXBT</h3>\n\n![primexbt-logo-400.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmU39VopMqiHF1QHYPebkNZdeTjTK9Dzreg98cfJHHYtGc/primexbt-logo-400.png)\n\n<a href='https://primexbt.com'>PrimeXBT</a> is the only Bitcoin Derivatives platform to offer up to 100x leverage on all assets that include crypto-assets such as BTC, ETH, LTC, EOS and XRP as well as traditional assets such as commodities, forex pairs and stock indices.\n\nThe platform also boasts a strong trading engine that can execute up to 12,000 trades per second at an average rate of under 7.12ms.\n\nPrimeXBT is also equipped with a wide range of sophisticated TA indicators, drawing tools, and advanced order types.\n\nThe PrimeXBT aggregator provides feeds from multiple asset vendors, ensuring the highest liquidity on all tradable assets.\n\n<h3>KuCoin</h3>\n\n![kucoin-logo-400.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmVmLcUATHEJ2AHdjd2JMobxshqYp4m8szjz16srV2XAjJ/kucoin-logo-400.png)\n\n<a href='https://kucoin.com'>KuCoin</a> is an exchange based in Hong Kong that was launched in 2017 and provides its own token called KuCoin.\n\nKuCoin allows holders to take 50% of the fees that KuCoin collects and this a fairly unique token structure and one of the main drawcards for KuCoin users.\n\nThe platform suffers from being fairly unknown however, and this is something that should be addressed as right now KuCoin is not one of the major cryptocurrency exchanges.\n\nSaying this, the platform has a relatively nice user interface and is not difficult to use.\n\n<h2>In Conclusion: Bitcoin Derivatives 101</h2>\n\nBitcoin Derivatives have quickly become one of the most hyped subsets of financial instruments within the cryptocurrency market.\n\nThe opportunity to create positions that do not carry the legal, tax and regulatory restrictions of owning cryptocurrency is very attractive, and as a result many crypto traders are now including derivatives in their activities.",

The platform also provides margin trading with leverage of up to 100x on crypto-assets and up to 1000x on traditional assets.\n\nAffiliates that opt for revenue sharing of 50% of all fees generated by direct sign ups will be entitled to up to 100x the size of payouts that are typically seen on other trading platforms.  This is because of the high leverage used from traders on the site compared with other platforms that provide lower leveraging.\n\n<h2>Covesting</h2>\n\n![covesting-logo-400.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmacmLis2CQBpwp4kc8hj3ekVG9D9K9FNuiFr4TuEkEssw/covesting-logo-400.jpg)\n\nThe <a href='https://covesting.com'>Covesting</a> referral plan has been designed to be easy to calculate and use, and is structured with 4 tiers that depend on how much is generated by all of the affiliate's referrals.\n\nCovesting is also one of the leading global cryptocurrency exchanges, with a focus on socially-based trading.  The Covesting platform and ecosystem is fuelled by their COV cryptocurrency token.\n\nCovesting’s reward tiers are divided at the $100,000, $200,000 and $300,000 marks - with tier one being up to $100k, tier two being between $100k and $200k, tier 3 being between $200k and $300k, and tier 4 being above $300k.\n\nReward percentages are 20%, 25%, 30% and 40% respectively.\n\n<h2>In Conclusion: Best affiliate CPA crypto offers</h2>\n\nWe’ve searched high and low and eventually decided on the 2 programs we think give affiliate promoters more rewards and an easier way to get them.\n\nMake sure to do thorough research into these platforms before making a decision to see which one out of these 2 you think is best.",

Forex trading takes place predominantly on forex trading platforms, and traders may use a wide range of investment strategies when buying and selling different currencies.\n\nOn such strategy is using margin trading to increase profitability.\n\n<b>Margin trading</b> is the process of making trades using funds that have been borrowed from a third party, typically a broker.\n\nThe main two types of margin trading are <b>“shorting”</b> and <b>“leveraging”</b>.\n\nShorting is the process of creating trades that generate profit when the price of an asset goes down, instead of up.  \n\nA trader will borrow some of the asset and sell it at a price.  Once the price has gone down they will buy back the amount of asset that is needed to make the repayment and keep the profit.\n\nLeveraging is the process of borrowing funds in order to create trades much larger than what would normally have been possible.  A leveraged trade requires an amount of an asset called a “margin” to be provided to the broker in case the price action goes against the trader’s position.\n\n<h2>Best Forex Margin Trading Platforms in 2020</h2>\n\n<h3>PrimeXBT</h3>\n\n![primexbt-best-forex-margin-trading-platform.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmfYHcGjGRLfviQr2zNaWcLhX4b3CmTPM8KLBbaxnpMj6n/primexbt-cpa-affiliate-program.png)\n\n<b><a href=\"https://primexbt.com\">PrimeXBT</a></b> is the world’s leading multi-asset margin trading platform, listing a wide range of assets including the top cryptocurrencies, commodities, stock indices, and of course, forex pairs.\n\nPrimeXBT offers leveraging on forex of up to 500x, as it does with all other traditional assets, and leveraging of up to 100x on cryptocurrencies.\n\nThe platform provides the lowest trading fee schedule, with a flat rate of just 0.05% across all assets.\n\nAs well as this, traders can engage in “coinvesting” on PrimeXBT, which is a process where successful traders can create bespoke funds which other traders can invest into.\n\n<h3>eToro</h3>\n\n<center>![etoro forex margin trading.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmeZ61BduQqaikj2aAa68SmQ6qQbFFW4U4hscRGN1E4Lkq/etoro.png)</center>\n\n<b><a href=\"https://etoro.com\">eToro</a></b> is a US-based social trading platform that allows users to copy each other’s trades for profit.\n\nThe platform also provides tips and a wide range of assets and instruments to invest into, and this has earnt eToro a positive reputation in general.\n\nTraders can trade “contracts for difference”, or CFDs, on the platform, where margin trading can be applied and leveraging and shorting can be applied to all asset classes.\n\n\n<h2>In Conclusion</h2>\n\nForex margin trading can be highly profitable, especially because of the use of leveraging and the typically high liquidity of forex pairs.\n\n<b>PrimeXBT</b> and <b>eToro</b> are both excellent options for retails traders, based upon their reputation, the advanced features provided and the wide range of assets available to be traded.",

      "body": "Prominent crypto influencer, Cryptomist, released the details of <a href ='https://twitter.com/TheCryptomist/status/1179804464200507395'>research</a> they conducted into the state of the customer support at various cryptocurrency margin trading platforms.\n\nThe case study ranked 5 of the leading crypto margin platforms by a number of metrics including the reaction rate, the quality and completeness of the answer, politeness and professionalism, and the range of different communication channels available.\n\nOf the 5 platforms included in the research, margin trading leader, <a href='https://primexbt.com'>PrimeXBT</a>, came out on top overall, while also ranking first in a majority of the individual categories.\n\nPrimeXBT and Binance were the only two platforms in the study to have reaction times of a few minutes or less, and while a number of the exchanges provided polite and professional responses, the quality of PrimeXBT’s assistance and the variety of support channels they provide was second to none.\n\n<h2>Good Customer Support Makes a Big Difference in 2019</h2>\n\nGone are the days that traders will accept sloppy customer support on trading platforms.\n\nWith the explosion of the popularity of investing in crypto over the past few years, a bevy of new exchange launches has ensured that today crypto-consumers are spoiled for choice.  \n\nThis means that instead of having to take it on the chin when one of the few platforms available takes 3 days to reply to a support ticket, investors now have their pick of hundreds of different trading sites - a lack of sufficient customer support on one site just means a new customer at another.\n\nAnd with the huge increase in attention on cryptocurrency since 2017’s epic bull run, a wave of new novice and hobby retail traders have entered the market.  \n\nAs they learn about the right ways to profitably trade, as well as how to navigate a certain trading platform, their ability to get fast and effective advice and feedback from the team behind each exchange or brokerage is absolutely critical.\n\n<h2>Customer Support Results</h2>\n\n<h3>The Best: PrimeXBT</h3>\n\n<img src='https://i.imgsafe.org/5b/5bbddd25b4.png' />\n\n<a href='https://primexbt.com'>PrimeXBT</a> was found to provide by far the best support available for all 5 of the crypto margin trading platforms studied, with only Binance coming anywhere close to being as good.\n\nThe win hinges on a number of factors.  To start with, PrimeXBT was the only platform to provide instant response times.  \n\nWhile other platforms provided answers (sometimes) and often with limited information, PrimeXBT’s staff provided “very helpful” advice, which “provided sufficient amounts of information to answer all of our questions”.\n\nWhere Deribit only has Telegram support, which is wildly insufficient for the needs of traders in 2019, and even Bitmex and Bitfinex only provided added email support on top of Telegram, PrimeXBT was found to have 4 channels available for users: live chat, tickets, email and social media communication.\n\n<h3>High-Quality Support: Binance</h3>\n\n<img src='https://i.imgsafe.org/5b/5bbdcea8d8.png' />\n\n<a href='https://binance.com'>Binance</a> fared well in the research, being the only other exchange to have response times that most traders would consider acceptable.\n\nWhile PrimeXBT’s instant response times give their users a clear advantage over a majority of other platforms, Binance’s response times of 2-3 minutes are still what we would call “fast”.\n\nBinance also sufficiently answered the questions required, although starting the inquiry by having to interact with a bot was a drawback.\n\n<h3>Slow but Helpful: Bitfinex</h3>\n\n<img src='https://i.imgsafe.org/5b/5bbdba0869.png' />\n\n<a href='https://bitfinex.com'>Bitfinex</a> is the first of the two platforms that could be considered to have midrange support.\n\nWhile the inquiry at Bitfinex was technical solved, it took a whopping 21 minutes to get a response.\n\nSaying this, the advice provided was clear and concise, and staff were polite.\n\nHowever, on big drawback for the platform was the lack of anything more than email and Telegram support - both of which are inherently slow and prone to getting clogged with enquiries in peak times.\n\n<h3>Slow with Limited Help: Bitmex</h3>\n\n<img src='https://i.imgsafe.org/5b/5bbdb81ad6.png' />\n\n<a href='https://bitmex.com'>Bitmex</a> joins Bitfinex in the midrange area, again having support that is passable but definitely of a lower quality than PrimeXBT and Binance.\n\nMuch like Bitfinex, Bitmex’s support is sluggish at a response time of 19 minutes.\n\nWhat positions Bitmex in the 4th spot behind Bitfinex, however, is that the quality of the response was poor with “limited information” being provided in the study.\n\nBitmex also relies on the sub-sufficient system of emails and Telegram only.\n\n<h3>Dysfunctional Support: Deribit</h3>\n\n<img src='https://i.imgsafe.org/5b/5bbcd8b2b2.png' />\n\n<a href='https://deribit.com'>Deribit</a> rounds out the study at the bottom position, deservedly.\n\nThe research did not assign a reaction time to Deribit’s support, because there never was a reply to the email inquiry sent.\n\nNot only this, but because of the lack of a reply, no scores for the quality of the answer or politeness were given.\n\nTo cap off a shockingly poor performance from Deribit’s support team, the only other channel where contact could be established was via Telegram - meaning that the platform provides only a single means of getting in touch with them.\n\n<h2>In Summary</h2>\n\nCryptomist’s study highlights one of the most important and overlooked facets of designing and building a world-class cryptocurrency trading platform: excellent support for users.\n\nAnecdotally, similar results have been reported for these 5 exchanges.  While the top 2 clearly have a well-oiled system in place for assisting their clients, the bottom 3 provide substandard support systems that are not accepted by savvy traders in 2019.\n\nThis research may inspire others to also take a deeper and more measured look at what’s on offer in the cryptocurrency industry today, in search of instantaneous response times and polite, professional, helpful answers.",

So much so, it can be overwhelming if you are new to the digital-asset scene. Yet there is one crucial element that cannot be understated or overlooked as the first priority when deciding which will be your trading platform of choice ...<i>is it safe?</i> \n \n<h2>What Makes a Safe Bitcoin Trading Platform?</h2>\n \nExtensive cyber-security framework is a must. Here is a handful of the key security mechanisms, policies, and procedures that any reputable exchange should feature (at the minimum):\n \n- Solid Bitcoin wallet security and offline asset storage, i.e. cold wallets with multi-signature technology.\n- Two-Factor-Authentication (2FA) - to prevent unauthorized access to user accounts.\n- Cryptographically hashed passwords and all sensitive data encrypted.\n- Registrar and domain security, eg. Cloudfare, to mitigate DDoS attacks.\n- Encrypted SSL (https) to cipher and secure the website’s traffic.\n- Regular audits/testing/assessments to keep up to date with new potential threats and vulnerabilities. \n \nThere are many additional security practices that a Bitcoin exchange will implement, yet they vary from one provider to the next. However, it is worth looking into, as well as their history to see whether they have been hacked before, and if so, how they handled it.\n \n<h2>Should you choose a Bitcoin Trading Platform with KYC or no KYC?</h2>\n\n<center>![no kyc bitcoin trading platforms.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmT2z8nCXN2tFXGKPHfo1wbZDqqciJqwF2TK73huPrb5dB/no%20kyc%20bitcoin%20trading%20platforms.png)</center>\n \nDespite what you may have heard, KYC is not essential for a crypto exchange to be safe. On the contrary, submitting your most sensitive personal data via KYC actually increases the risk of identity theft and fraud which can lead to far more serious consequences. So long as the trading platform's security practices are of the highest standard, KYC will not prevent a hack from occurring in the first place.  \n \n<h2>Which are the Safest Bitcoin Trading Platforms of 2019?</h2>\n \n<b>Binance</b>, <b>Coinbase</b>, <b>Kraken</B>, <b>KuCoin</b>, and <b>OkEX</b> stand out as some of the most well-known and reputable crypto exchanges with the strictest security practices and multi-level systems.  However, it’s 2019’s fastest-growing trading platform, <a href=\"https://primexbt.com/\">PrimeXBT</a>, that’s setting the new high bar, with the most advanced and robust technological infrastructure available date across the entire online-trading industry. \n \n<h2>Final Thought</h2>\n \nEven when using the best and safest Bitcoin trading platforms, it is still critical to be prudent with passwords, private keys, and sensitive personal data, and to ensure that you only access your trading account and/or Bitcoin wallet on computers/devices that are protected with antivirus software.",
