Features of stablecoin
Much information related to stablecoin has been put forward by PayPal’s spokeswoman. According to her, recent images and codes that are currently inside PayPal’s app are from the hackathon. Also, the company makes it clear that the logo, name, and features will see certain variations. The users can expect a different logo other than what is seen in the code. In recent times, PayPal had a connection with certain major cryptocurrencies through which they got an idea of launching new features. The feature might include buying and selling the digital currency through the app of PayPal. This will help users to make transactions easily from the app and further, the company will disclose the features later on. There are various other companies that have explored their own coins.
