According to Google trends Uphold is gaining in popularity in Venezuela. Can anyone comment on how popular Uphold is there? As of today, Uphold now supports Dash. Is this a good solution to obtain Dash in Venezuela?

Hello, Im from Venezuela. That´s true, Uphold is gaining popularity in Venezuela, but this doesn´t mean that Venezuelans are using this platform to buy cryptos. Since in Venezuela we have a currency exchange control by the goverment, people can´t buy dollars in a "legal" way and we all have to buy dollars on the "black market", this means that if we can´t change Bolivares for Dollars in a legal way there isn´t any exchange that accept Bolivares to buy cryptos (and Uphold isn´t the exception)

This means that Venezuelans can use Uphold ONLY if they have either an US Bank Account or EU Bank Account. And only a small % of venezuelans population has a foreign bank account. Thanks God I have my US Bank account and I can buy cryptos. Besides there is another problem with Uphold, I have a lot of friends and family that has their foreign account but Uphold DON´T let them link their account, and they are waiting answer that support team from Uphold responde their requests (2 weeks ago).

Anyways, Venezuelans that have their foreign Bank account are trying to link them to Uphold and they will buy DASH for sure. This notice about Uphold supporting DASH will definetely increase DASH value. Just for extra info: the more usage webpage to buy BTC with Bolivares is "www.localbitcoin,com" , its a marketplace where people buy and sell their cripto, but I´ve heard about some scams so people must be very very careful before buying or selling to someone else.
 
Thanks for the explanation. Can you explain what the primary reason is for Venezuelans to have an Uphold account if they can't buy dollars/cryptos with Bolivars? Does Uphold make it easier to spend dollars deposited from a US bank account?

I used to use uphold, and these are monetary valued assets, not really for spending but for value protection.

Even Venezuelans can´t buy cryptos from Uphold using Bolivares, there is an important number of us that do have a foreign account (mostly on US), I know I told you that the % is low but even that, the number is important. Many years ago, when our economy was on its hype, a lot of venezuelans had the chance of travel around the world, they opened their bank account and save some money. Also, there is a lot of bussinesman interested on the cryptos because of the devaluation and hiperinflation we are living, we need to store an revalue our gains and savings.

Besides that explanation, I think following are some of the main reasons:

1- It has a friendly and intuitive interphase and this is a key factor (like you asked, it make the process easier and understandable)
2- 3-4 months ago many venezuelans could link their US Bank accounts on the Uphold platform with any problem and they could buy their fitst cryptos
3- So far, it has not been hacked and it gives a real confidence image.

These reasons made Venezuelans talk a lot ot Uphold and the "mouth to mouth" did its job.

nope, specifically to obtain DASH, but in Venezuela we have the option to buy crypts in Bolivares, as is the case of ONIXCOIN, that in its official website is open the possibility of making these transactions, and so we can buy DASH.
The help of Uphold is when it comes to changing dash to dollars in a popular wallet, this is because Venezuelans are selling and buying things like cars, motorcycles, houses, etc, etc. (motivated to use this fiat currency as a value guard) **
