According to a report from BitcoinCasinos.com, PayPal’s cryptocurrency holdings have grown by 30% quarter-on-quarter (QoQ) to stand at nearly $1 billion in Q1 2023.
The site’s Financial analyst Edith Reads comments, “PayPal’s entry into the crypto space was seen as a major milestone for mainstream adoption. The staggering increase of their crypto holdings in Q1 2023 shows just how committed they are to building out the necessary infrastructure and resources to make digital currencies more accessible to all.”
PayPal’s foray into the cryptocurrency market is part of its larger strategy to focus on innovation, particularly when it comes to payments. This is underlined by their partnerships with leading crypto companies such as Paxos and now MetaMask.
The partnership between MetaMask and PayPal will allow users in the US to use their PayPal accounts to purchase ETH on the platform. This will open up a new access door for Ethereum users looking for a more convenient way to buy, store and transact digital assets.
