Trading restrictions and future prospects

Despite Uphold’s facilitation of EVR token distribution, investors should note that EVR assets will not be immediately tradable on the platform. Uphold emphasized that EVR can only be traded if it meets the platform’s strict listing criteria and liquidity requirements.

Previous initiatives and user engagement

This is not Uphold’s first attempt at comprehensive services related to Ripple’s native coin. Last year, the exchange distributed thousands of XRP tokens to lucky users, with the only requirement being that they complete a qualifying transaction worth at least $20 on the platform.

XRP’s popularity remains

XRP gained significant interest among Uphold customers, especially towards the end of the previous year. It emerged as the most traded cryptocurrency during the week from November 18 to November 25, with nearly 75% of users acquiring various amounts of XRP.
