The Copacabana Palace was the stage for one of the most anticipated announcements of the conference: the official arrival of PYUSD, PayPal's stablecoin, to the Stellar network. The announcement was made by José Fernández da Ponte, Chief Growth Officer of Stellar, alongside Larry Wade, head of risk and crypto compliance at PayPal.

The context could not have been more symbolic. At an event that brings together leaders from the blockchain ecosystem, regulators, and global financial institutions, Stellar and PayPal sealed a partnership that connects one of the most relevant stablecoin issuers in the world with a blockchain designed for fast and accessible payments.$BTC #PayPalNews
