PayPal Visions To Expand Crypto-Services Worldwide

Initially, PayPal introduced its crypto-services for American consumers in October of 2020, enabling them to trade cryptocurrencies directly within the PayPal digital wallet. However, the company also narrated its vision of expansion in selected international markets till the first half of 2021. 

Dan Schulman, PayPal CEO also noted the expansion of crypto trading service in the United Kingdom last week. Schulman has always appeared to be positive about Bitcoin; and according to him, the company’s crypto business surpassed all expectations in its initial six months of operation itself as BTC and ETH struck their all-time highs and propelled the overall cryptocurrency market capitalisation to a $2.6T benchmark.

Bitcoin(BTC) $40,134 (-3.75%): BTC traded bullish above the psychological level of $40,000 for the first time in July, and has kicked off the August month on the right footing. Although Bitcoin has soared 20% over the past week, analysts still speculate ‘the king’ to remain range-bounded as the current rally may have taken a breather.
