PrimeXBT crypto futures expanded with 40 new trading pairs on January 14, 2026, broadening the platform's asset coverage across high-demand segments including AI, Layer-1 and Layer-2 networks, DeFi, Infrastructure, meme tokens, NFT, Metaverse, and Payments. The expansion is part of the broker's ongoing effort to give traders deeper market access, better liquidity, and cost-efficient trading conditions as new market narratives emerge and rotate quickly.
What Assets Were Actually Added
The newly added markets include a curated selection of highly traded coins and tokens such as CELO, DASH, DYDX, EIGEN, SNX, ZK, and ZRO, alongside emerging community and meme-driven assets. This batch also introduces trending tokens including HYPE and PUMP, now available for futures trading, giving PrimeXBT users exposure to some of the market's most actively discussed names shortly after they gained broader attention.
How Assets Were Selected for This Expansion
Each coin added to this batch was selected based on market liquidity and clear trader demand, rather than an arbitrary or purely narrative-driven listing process. This approach is intended to support deeper order books, tighter execution, and more efficient trading conditions across the new pairs, since assets with genuine liquidity depth typically produce better fill quality than thinly traded, purely speculative listings.
Leverage and Margin Structure
The new crypto futures come with 100-150x maximum leverage across most pairs, while the ETH/BTC pair offers up to 400x leverage, among the highest available in the industry. Most instruments are USDT-margined, and traders can also benefit from higher maximum order sizes in markets with strong liquidity, enabling more flexible position management for larger trades.
Expanded Zero-Fee Offering
As part of the launch, PrimeXBT also expanded its zero-fee offering, introducing new zero-fee opportunities on popular pairs such as FLOW, KAIA, EGLD, RUNE, GALA, and BOME, among others. This complements the platform's existing roster of cost-efficient markets and supports high-frequency and cost-sensitive traders who execute frequent trades where fee accumulation matters more than for infrequent, larger positions.
Why PrimeXBT Frames This as Timing-Sensitive
PrimeXBT stated that recent volatility has demonstrated how quickly new narratives emerge in the crypto market, making timely access to new opportunities essential the moment they gain momentum. In conditions where capital rotates rapidly between AI-linked tokens, infrastructure plays, DeFi protocols, and meme-driven assets, cost efficiency becomes increasingly important since narrow trading windows leave less room for fees to erode returns.
PrimeXBT's Broader Market Position
With this expansion, PrimeXBT strengthens its crypto futures offering while continuing to provide traders with more than 350 markets across both crypto and CFDs, spanning forex, indices, commodities, and shares alongside its expanded crypto derivatives lineup. Since 2018, PrimeXBT has focused on empowering traders through broad multi-asset access, fair and transparent conditions, and professional-grade technology.
This asset-coverage expansion sits alongside PrimeXBT's broader platform investment covered in our companion piece on PXTrader 2.0's unified crypto and traditional markets platform, both reflecting the broker's push to deepen its offering across multiple dimensions simultaneously.
