What’s new? The international payment service PayPal has presented the results of the company's activities in the third quarter. The total revenue of the platform increased by 13% to $6,18 billion. As for the crypto sector, the company did not publish specific indicators. However, its management confirmed that it intends to continue its expansion in this segment.

In July, rumors emerged that PayPal was negotiating a possible partnership with Uniswap. And since autumn, UK users have had access to some of the company's crypto services.
What did PayPal’s CEO say? According to the service's head Dan Schulman, payments in digital currencies will become mainstream in the near future. He added that crypto services are very popular among platform users.
