Uphold Wallet was founded in November 2014 and has since evolved into a one-of-a-kind exchange for exchanging both digital and real goods, as well as various cryptocurrencies.
Uphold has a solid security track record, however in November 2018, the firm experienced a minor security incident that cost the company around $2,200 and resulted in the temporary suspension of Bitcoin withdrawals owing to the incident being carried out using the Bitcoin cryptocurrency.
Uphold accepts both cash (fiat) and cryptocurrency, with roughly 23 fiat currencies and 9 cryptocurrencies currently supported.
