PayPal’s Cryptocurrency Offerings
Meanwhile, this is not the first time PayPal is showcasing interest in cryptocurrencies. In 2020, PayPal launched a new service that enables its more than 350 million customers to buy, sell, and hold Bitcoin within the platform. Earlier this year, PayPal expanded the service, allowing its clients to be able to send Bitcoin and Ethereum out of the platform to their external wallets.
As reported, PayPal is considering launching its own stablecoin backed by the United States dollar.
