Review	Review
PrimeXBT is a multi-asset platform providing leveraged trading across forex, indices, commodities, and cryptocurrencies. Established in 2018, it now boasts over 1 million users from upwards of 150 countries. Offering copy trading, low commissions, and no minimum deposit, this broker is a favoured choice for those new to crypto trading.	BlackBull, a CFD broker from New Zealand, offers a wide array of over 2,180 trading instruments. Rebranded in 2023, it now features a contemporary design, advanced trading tools, and execution speeds averaging 20 milliseconds.
Pros
The online platform and app cater to traders, offering advanced charts, a customisable interface, and multiple order options like one-cancels-the-other (OCO). In 2025, PrimeXBT significantly expanded its Crypto Futures range to over 200 tokens across AI, NFTs, Metaverse, Layer 1 and Layer 2 sectors. Trading fees for crypto futures contracts are quite competitive, with maker fees at 0.01% and taker fees at 0.02%. PrimeXBT offers ultra-fast execution speeds, averaging 7.12ms, making it an ideal choice for traders seeking optimal pricing during market volatility. Round-the-clock customer support, accessible through live chat, demonstrated outstanding performance during testing. Additionally, the comprehensive help centre offers ideal self-assistance resources. PrimeXBT has expanded offerings by adding new tokens for trading and funding, including 1Inch, Aave, and Injective. Traders can leverage crypto balances like BTC, ETH, USDT, and USDC as margin for trading in traditional markets without first converting to fiat currency.	BlackBull provides all essentials for traders: execution speeds under 100ms and tight spreads starting at 0.0 pips. BlackBull better suits budding traders after revamping its ECN Prime account. It now offers improved spreads, averaging 0.16 on EUR/USD, and eliminates the previous $2,000 minimum deposit requirement. BlackBulls's research excels, particularly in the daily 'Trading Opportunities' articles. These publications simplify complex market dynamics into clear insights, enabling traders to effectively capitalise on emerging trends. After collaborating with ZuluTrade and Myfxbook, upgrading its CopyTrader, and activating cTrader Copy, BlackBull provides an exceptionally thorough trading experience. BlackBull caters to all traders, from beginners to high-volume professionals, with two ECN-based accounts (Standard and Prime) and Prime+, a rewards program providing trading rebates.
Cons
Although 7 metals were added, the 350+ instruments still lag behind competitors, particularly OKX with its 400+ assets. While many educational articles cover charting analysis for short-term strategies, there is a lack of engaging, interactive resources such as videos and quizzes. Although licensed by bodies such as the FSCA, FSC, CNAD and FSA, PrimeXBT is not authorised by a top-tier regulator, increasing its risk relative to leading crypto exchanges and brokers. Enhance response times and channel options to offer active traders faster, more thorough support.	Although they offer an expanding range of over 2,180 assets, including new entries in Asia Pacific indices, the portfolio is primarily composed of stocks, alongside a moderate variety of currency pairs and indices. Unlike many leading brokers, BlackBull imposes a bothersome $5 fee for withdrawals. This charge can reduce the overall cost-effectiveness, particularly for traders who regularly transfer funds. Despite enhancements such as webinars and tutorials in the Education Hub, our review indicates that the courses still require greater emphasis on elucidating broader economic factors affecting prices.
