Powered by Paxos’ crypto brokerage platform, PayPal has since added Checkout with Crypto, brought its crypto services to the U.K., and now allows consumers to transfer crypto on or off the PayPal ecosystem. The enablement of transfers by PayPal was, and remains, a watershed moment for the crypto ecosystem. It marked one of the first mainstream adoption moments for crypto.
