Coinbase is eliminating fees for purchases of PayPal's stablecoin, PayPal USD (PYUSD), to boost its adoption and usage among consumers and institutions. The collaboration aims to create stablecoin-based solutions for global money management, as competition in the stablecoin market intensifies with legislative developments and new product launches from companies like Circle and Ripple.

PayPal is set to expand the utility of its stablecoin, PYUSD, by integrating it into the Stellar blockchain network, pending regulatory approval. This integration aims to enhance fast and affordable payments, remittances, and access to financing for small and medium-sized businesses through the use of PYUSD.
