About XPT
Just like gold and silver, platinum is a beautiful metal that has a wide range of uses.
It’s highly malleable, doesn’t corrode or easily react with other metals or chemicals, and has a high melting point (1,768 degrees Celsius).
That makes it perfect for jewelry making, vehicle manufacturing, implanted medical devices, and technology. Platinum is rare compared with gold and silver - with just 169 metric tonnes mined in 2016 (there was 19x more gold and 163x more silver mined that year).
No wonder then that people want to buy platinum as an investment.
With Uphold, you can buy platinum online, and trade platinum online in seconds. All you need to do is set up a free account, fund it with your chosen fiat currency or cryptocurrency, add a platinum Account, and then 'send' funds to it.
