Paypal Launches Stablecoin On Tron, Avalanche & 6 More Blockchains

Payments giant PayPal is broadening the reach of its stablecoin, PayPal USD (PYUSD), by integrating it across eight additional blockchains, primarily through LayerZero’s Stargate Hydra bridge. This move aims to create a permissionless and fully fungible version of PYUSD, dubbed PYUSD0, which will facilitate seamless interoperability across multiple blockchain networks.

The supported chains include Tron, Avalanche, Aptos, Abstract, Ink, Sei, and Stable. Existing permissionless versions on Berachain (BBYUSD) and Flow (USDF) are set to upgrade to PYUSD0. Additionally, PayPal’s stablecoin has recently expanded to Stellar, further enhancing its multi-chain presence. LayerZero’s Stargate Hydra will serve as the interface for transferring PYUSD0, while LayerZero’s infrastructure will handle minting, burning, and deployment activities, ensuring smooth cross-chain functionality.

PayPal’s support for Ethereum, Solana, Arbitrum, and now Stellar positions PYUSD as one of the most accessible stablecoins within the crypto ecosystem. This expansion aligns with broader industry trends, as stablecoin adoption accelerates amid rising regulatory clarity and increasing market demand. The U.S. Treasury has estimated the stablecoin market, currently valued at around $295 billion, will grow to approximately $2 trillion by 2028, driven by ongoing innovations in DeFi, NFTs, and digital payments.

While PYUSD’s market cap stands at approximately $1.3 billion, it remains overshadowed by industry giants Tether (USDT) and USD Coin (USDC), with market caps exceeding $170 billion and $74 billion, respectively. These stablecoins support a broader array of blockchains, with USDT operating on 12 chains and USDC on 25. Other notable stablecoins like USDE, USDS, and DAI also hold significant market share in the multi-trillion-dollar crypto economy.

Stablecoins seen as the “killer app” for crypto, LayerZero CEO says

LayerZero Labs CEO Bryan Pellegrino highlighted the strategic importance of stablecoins, emphasizing that integrations like PayPal’s showcase the potential for a borderless financial network that operates 24/7. He noted that such interoperability allows users to move PYUSD seamlessly across multiple chains without reliance on centralized banking infrastructure, reflecting the evolving landscape of digital finance components.

PYUSD now available on Stellar in a separate integration

Earlier this week, PYUSD was also integrated on Stellar, a blockchain known for its low fees and quick transaction finality—attributes critical for users in emerging markets seeking to save in US dollars. Stellar’s network has garnered widespread use among populations in developing countries, further positioning PYUSD as a versatile and accessible digital dollar.

PayPal’s PYUSD, issued by Paxos and launched in August 2023, marks a significant milestone as the company’s first major foray into the crypto space. As stablecoins gain prominence, their role in bridging traditional finance and decentralized systems is becoming increasingly critical, echoing the broader growth trajectory of cryptocurrency markets and blockchain innovation.

XRP Approaches Macro Breakdown Zone, Analyst Warns About One Final Leg Lower

XRP’s price action in November has dragged it below $2, but technical analysis suggests that the breakdown might not be over.  A new technical outlook from crypto analyst CasiTrades suggests that the XRP price is entering the final stages of its corrective structure. The analyst believes the current movements are part of a clean Elliott Wave formation that is approaching its final wave to as low as $2.65 before a major bullish reversal takes place. Related Reading: Dogecoin Goes Wall Street: Grayscale Confirms Nov. 24 ETF Launch XRP Breaks Below Fibonacci Levels As Wave Structure Unfolds XRP’s volatility has intensified in recent days as the cryptocurrency continues to unwind into new November lows. Price action across the major exchanges shows a steady decline beneath retracement levels that have pushed XRP into deeper corrective territory. CasiTrades noted that XRP’s drop beneath the 0.5 Fibonacci retracement on Coinbase was the move that confirmed further downside. According to the analyst, she had already warned that a failure of this level would open the door to a wave of selling toward the extended Wave 3 support at roughly $1.84. XRP reached that target with precision, while Binance’s chart tagged its own macro .5 level around $1.88. The current bounce back above $1.9 might be looking like a reversal but is actually a subwave 4 relief move. This means XRP is temporarily recovering from deeply oversold conditions, yet the core market structure still points to one more leg lower before the trend shifts.  Based on the Fibonacci map and wave count, the technical outlook is for XRP to retest familiar resistance levels around $2.00 or $2.09 before the final decline begins. 🚨 Get Ready! XRP Likely to test the Macro .618! 🚨 XRP has officially broken below its .5 retracement on Coinbase, and just like I said in my last update, if that level fails, the next target will be the extended Wave 3 support around $1.84. We’ve now reached that perfectly and… pic.twitter.com/tSQdVAlpdY — CasiTrades 🔥 (@CasiTrades) November 21, 2025 $1.65 As The Final Level To Complete Correction The most important area in CasiTrades’ outlook is the macro 0.618 support, located close to $1.65. This level aligns across both Coinbase and Binance and sits at the heart of the analyst’s projection for where Wave 5 of the correction should land. The chart above shows a descending wedge meeting the macro support, along with an RSI trend that has continued building a bullish divergence. These signals suggest that momentum is flattening. However, CasiTrades believes that XRP dipping into the $1.65 region would mark the moment the correction concludes. Related Reading: Kiyosaki Dumps Bitcoin At $90K After Predicting A $250K Moonshot – Here’s Why The analyst also pointed out that Bitcoin’s chart is moving in harmony with XRP’s structure. At the time of writing, Bitcoin has approached its own macro 0.382 retracement but has not fully reached it yet.  The expectation is that XRP’s final leg to $1.65 will occur simultaneously with Bitcoin sliding to a clean $80,000 touch. CasiTrades projects Bitcoin entering its Wave 5 advance into new all-time highs shortly after touching its support. If that scenario plays out, both assets would complete their macro supports at the same moment, setting the stage for a synchronized bullish reversal.  At the time of writing, XRP is trading at $2.02.
