On June 11, PayPal announced plans to launch its U.S. dollar-backed stablecoin, PayPal USD (PYUSD), on the Stellar blockchain network, pending regulatory approval from the New York State Department of Financial Services. If approved, the move would mark the expansion of PYUSD beyond its current availability on Ethereum and Solana.
PayPal described Stellar as a blockchain tailored for low-cost, high-speed payments with strong real-world utility. By adding support for Stellar, the company aims to improve the accessibility and usability of PYUSD for payments, cross-border transfers, and financial services. The integration is expected to enhance daily payment options and provide users with expanded access to financing tools such as working capital and small business loans—areas where Stellar is already active.
