Stable, an institutional quality stable blockchain, supported by Cryptocurrency Exchange Bitfinex, integrated a stablecoin built by the main online payment platform Paypal.
Paypal Ventures made a strategic investment in Stable to bring Lundicoin to an announcement of Stablecoin by Paypal USD (Pyusd).
“This work with Stable reflects our commitment to expand the usefulness of Pyusd in several blockchain ecosystems and to stimulate adoption,” said David Weber, chief of the Pyusd ecosystem, focusing on rapid and transparent financial transactions.
The news occurred about two months after stables emerged from stealth at the end of July, announcing a round of seed financing of $ 28 million co-directed by Bitfinex and Hack VC.
Stable is “designed for USDT”
Stable is a layer 1 blockchain designed for transparent financial transactions, targeting payments, sending funds and cross -border transactions.
The project is closely linked to Tether USDT (USDT), the largest stable in the world by market capitalization.
On his website, Stable describes his blockchain as being “designed for the USDT”, offering a real colony with “a finality below a second, transfers of peers without gas and USDT as indigenous gas”.
“The use of the USDT as a native gas token eliminates the complexity of the management of volatile tokens just to move digital dollars,” said the Stable FAQ.
In addition to the USDT, Stable is also linked to USDT0 (USDT0), a transverse liquidity stablecoin introduced by Everdawn Labs, according to its biography of the X account and its information on its website.
It is not known if stable uses USDT or USDT0 as a native gas token. Cointelegraph contacted stable but did not receive any response by publication.
New use cases related to trade for Pyusd
According to Weber de Paypal, the partnership with Stable aims to unlock “new user -related use cases” for Pyusd.
Launched in collaboration with Paxos in August 2023, Pyusd became a notable player on the Stablecoin Stablecoin market, although it still drags far behind the USDT of Tether, with its market capitalization of $ 172 billion.

At the time of writing the writing moment, Pyusd ranked as the 11th largest stablecoin by market capitalization, worth around 1.4 billion dollars, according to Coingecko data.
“We are delighted to invest in stable because they attack the real border for the stablescoins, the emerging markets where reliable payments based on a dollar can have the greatest impact,” said Paypal Ventures, Amman Bhasin.
Paypal did not immediately respond to Cintelelegraph’s press survey on his collaboration with Stable.
