Safety and regulation

PrimeXBT's main issues concerning regulation are that the platform is unregulated despite it being used by traders who are already leery of it. However, extremely strict security measures are in place to safeguard the client's funds and data. Client funds are held completely secured in multisignature cold storage and protected against any unauthorized access. Furthermore, 2FA is set up, and an encrypted connection is secured.
