Stablechain Integrates PayPal USD for Fast, Low-Cost Global Payments

Stablechain, a high-throughput, EVM-compatible blockchain backed by Bitfinex, has integrated PayPal USD (PYUSD) with funding from PayPal Ventures. The integration embeds PYUSD directly on the Stable network. Stablechain uses USDT as its native gas token to process thousands of transactions per second with sub-second finality and gas-free peer-to-peer payments. The move aims to expand PYUSD’s on-chain utility, drive cross-border transactions and remittances, and boost financial inclusion in emerging markets. David Weber, head of the PYUSD ecosystem, said the partnership extends PayPal’s digital dollar use cases. Sam Kazemian, CTO of Stable, highlighted new opportunities for merchant payments and decentralized finance applications. Industry analysts expect the integration to strengthen stablecoin payments infrastructure, increase PYUSD adoption, and set a new standard for crypto-powered financial services.
Bullish
Integrating PYUSD into a scalable, high-speed network backed by PayPal Ventures and Bitfinex is likely to boost demand for the stablecoin. In the short term, traders may see increased on-chain activity and liquidity, driving modest price appreciation. Over the long term, expanded use cases in cross-border payments, remittances, and merchant settlements can deepen PYUSD’s market adoption and support sustained growth.
