YouTube now allows US creators to receive payouts in PayPal’s PYUSD stablecoin: report
Summary
YouTube has started allowing creators based in the U.S. to receive their earnings in PayPal's PYUSD stablecoin, according to a recent report. This development builds upon a prior arrangement where PayPal began offering bulk-payment recipients the option to receive payouts in stablecoins during the third quarter of 2025. PYUSD, a U.S. dollar-pegged stablecoin launched in 2023, currently ranks as the world's eighth-largest stablecoin. While this feature is currently restricted to U.S. creators, its implementation on a platform with over 2.7 billion monthly users could significantly boost PYUSD adoption. PayPal continues to integrate PYUSD across its products, including Venmo and small business payment options. The broader stablecoin sector is experiencing global growth, influenced by U.S. regulatory actions, prompting other nations like the UK, South Korea, and Japan to introduce their own stablecoin regulations.
