The Anything-to-Anything™ Model

Uphold pioneered a revolutionary trading model that allows you to directly trade between any supported asset in a single step. No need to convert Crypto to Fiat, and then Fiat to Metal. Go straight from Bitcoin to Gold, or XRP to EURC, saving you time and potentially reducing transaction friction. This unique flexibility is unmatched in the industry and simplifies complex portfolio management for both beginners and veterans.

100%+ Reserved & Audited

Since 2014, Uphold has been a pioneer in radical transparency. We are 100%+ reserved, meaning we hold more customer funds than liabilities. We prove this by publishing our assets and liabilities in real-time on our website for all to see. This commitment to transparency, coupled with regular third-party audits, provides an unparalleled level of trust and security, ensuring your funds are always available for withdrawal.

Multi-Asset Class Trading

Beyond a massive selection of 360+ cryptocurrencies and stablecoins (from BTC and ETH to emerging altcoins), Uphold offers 27 fiat currencies and 4 precious metals (Gold, Silver, Platinum, Palladium). This consolidation of asset classes under one roof allows for truly diversified investing without the hassle of managing multiple accounts on different platforms.

Flexible Staking & Yield

Benefit from competitive yield opportunities on your stablecoins and crypto holdings. Uphold offers staking on a wide range of assets, allowing you to earn rewards directly on your portfolio. Furthermore, the USD Interest Account offers attractive APY on uninvested cash balances (subject to location and terms), combining the utility of a trading platform with the benefits of a high-yield savings solution.

Frequently Asked Questions

The Anything-to-Anything™ model is Uphold's flagship feature, allowing users to execute direct conversions between virtually any two supported asset classes in a single transaction. For example, you can convert Bitcoin directly to Gold, or a specific Altcoin to a Fiat Currency, without having to first convert to USD or another base currency. This system is designed to maximize efficiency, reduce transactional steps, and simplify portfolio rebalancing, making it a powerful tool for sophisticated cross-market strategies. It also provides greater visibility into the total cost of a trade, eliminating hidden fees associated with multi-step conversions on traditional exchanges.

Security and radical transparency are foundational to Uphold. We are one of the few platforms that maintains a 100%+ reserve policy, meaning our holdings always exceed our obligations to customers. We publish our assets and liabilities in real-time, allowing any user to verify our solvency status. On the user level, we mandate strong passwords, offer email verification for unusual activity, and strongly encourage enabling Two-Factor Authentication (2FA). For additional protection, the Uphold Vault offers assisted self-custody with multi-signature security for select assets, giving users control while providing a safety net for key recovery.
