Cryptocurrency
You can buy and sell 250+ crypto assets with fiat currencies or in crypto pairs using the straightforward mobile app or through Uphold's browser-based account homepage. This is significantly more than many rivals. You can also earn up to 16% APY by staking one or more out of 32 valid tokens, or send tokens to an external wallet.	With well over 1000 crypto assets available, Kucoin offers a great degree of flexibility. It is excellent to see an extensive range of tokens, as this allows traders to search for lesser-known tokens with a high upside. The crypto futures and perpetual swaps are also good additions to the roster, tradeable with 1:10 leverage.
