Quick Facts:
Uphold, a fintech company offering on-chain finance solutions, yesterday announced that it will integrate with the Exactly Protocol. This will enable its customers to earn yield or access credit through their cryptocurrencies, such as XRP ($XRP) and Bitcoin ($BTC).
Launching in December, the service will initially be available in Florida and Latin America. Further expansion in the US is planned in Q1 2026.
Through this service, customers will be able to get more out of their crypto holdings, according to McLoughlin in a statement on Business Insider. That’s because they’ll be able to unlock more value out of their digital assets aside from merely waiting for their value to appreciate.
Uphold will support several digital assets when its service launches in December. These include Circle ($USDC) and Ethereum ($ETH), along with $XRP and $BTC.
As it is, a Bitcoin is only good as a store of value. This means that you can’t use it for more advanced applications, such as staking.
If you think your $BTC is valuable now, imagine how much more valuable it will become when you’re finally able to unlock its true potential.
To get the most out of Bitcoin Hyper, you’ll need to hold its native $HYPER token. While you can use it to pay for transaction fees, it’ll also provide you with additional perks, including governance rights and access to exclusive features on the L2.
You need to hurry, though, as there’s another price increase happening in a few hours. So, if you want to lock in $HYPER’s current price, now is the time.
