Digital money platform Uphold lists Ripple’s XRP

Digital money platform Uphold has added support for Ripple’s XRP token, allowing users to exchange XRP with 34 different currencies, commodities and digital assets.

With this listing, Uphold’s U.S.-based users would be able to access XRP directly, as well as exchange 7 digital assets, including XRP, with 23 fiat currency and 4 precious metals, and send money instantly to other members anywhere in the world.

“The XRP ecosystem is diversifying and growing rapidly,” said Miguel Vias, head of XRP markets at Ripple. “The listing of XRP on Uphold, a strong retail platform that offers customers easy access to digital assets, underscores the significant increase in interest for XRP.”

According to Ripple Insights, Uphold currently does not allow for the transfer of XRP to an external wallet, but plans to introduce this capability soon.

“Uphold provides our members with the most cost-effective and transparent way to hold, send or convert money anywhere,” said J.P. Theriot, Vice Chairman of Uphold. “Adding XRP to our available currencies is a natural and exciting step forward for our platform.”
