PayPal has officially rolled out its “Pay with Crypto” feature, allowing

settlements. Related Reading: Bitcoin Long-Term Holders Begin Distribution: 
Mirroring Fall 2024 Cycle Merchants can now accept crypto payments from 
wallets like MetaMask, Coinbase, Kraken, and Binance, with all transactions 
instantly converted to either U.S. dollars or PayPal’s own stablecoin, PYUSD. 
This means businesses no longer need to manage wallets or worry about crypto 
price volatility. With a competitive transaction fee of just 0.99%, PayPal is 
in line to be a more affordable alternative to traditional credit card 
processing, which often exceeds 2%. Bridging Wallets and Reducing Barriers for 
Merchants According to PayPal CEO Alex Chriss, this move targets a $3 trillion 
crypto market and more than 650 million global crypto users. &#8220;We’re removing 
barriers for global growth,&#8221; Chriss said, emphasizing the feature’s ability to 
connect merchants with buyers worldwide. The system provides near-instant fund 
access and offers merchants up to 4% in annual rewards when they hold PYUSD 
balances within the platform. This built-in incentive adds an investment 
dimension to the tool, enhancing business profitability. The launch also 
aligns with the expansion of PayPal World, a global partnership unifying the 
world’s top digital wallets. BTC&#8217;s price trends to the upside on the daily

Tradingview Crypto Momentum to Meet Real-World Utility The launch of “Pay with 
Crypto” marks another step in crypto’s mainstream adoption. With support for 
100+ tokens and direct integration with leading wallets, PayPal is simplifying 
what has long been a complex and expensive process: cross-border payments. As 
global regulatory adopts crypto, PayPal’s initiative may serve as a blueprint 
for how fintech companies can drive innovation while supporting small and mid- 
sized enterprises in the digital economy. Related Reading: Largest Publicly-

Cardano’s founder Charles Hoskinson says Bitcoin wasn’t the only story in 
crypto’s early days. In the last 12 months, ADA climbed 90%, leaving Bitcoin’s 
70% gain behind. Related Reading: Countdown To August 15: What XRP Investors 
Need To Know He argues that this gap isn’t new—it’s been widening ever since 
Cardano switched hundreds of millions of dollars’ worth of BTC into building 
its own network. Cardano Vs. Bitcoin Returns According to interviews with 
Blockworks co‑founder Jason Yanowitz, Cardano’s early backers traded yen 
contributions into 108,000 BTC. That stash would be worth about nearly $13 
billion today if it had just sat there. Instead, those coins went straight 
into building Cardano’s network. Based on reports, ADA’s market cap now sits 
at $30 billion—about 150% higher than the value of the Bitcoin reserve and 
roughly 2.8 times as much. Really enjoyed this conversation with @IOHK_Charles 
We covered a lot: politics, psychedelics, his bison + black hawk, his alien 
search, Japan’s influence on Cardano, personal security, and of course… Why he 
believes ADA is a better investment than BTC.pic.twitter.com/rB26dLLVpP — Yano 
🟪 (@JasonYanowitz) July 28, 2025 Since launch, ADA has jumped nearly 4,000% 
from its $0.02 debut in September 2017. Bitcoin has rallied 2,400% from a 
$4,337 price point in that same stretch. Many investors see those raw numbers 
and wonder whether they should have picked ADA over BTC from the start. They 
lay out a clear record of gains. Yet gains aren’t the full picture. Each 
network serves a different purpose. Bitcoin leans on being a store of value. 
Cardano mixes staking, smart contracts and on‑chain governance. Future Growth 
Prospects Hoskinson isn’t stopping at history. He predicts Bitcoin could still 
make a 10× move to reach $1 million per coin. ADA, by his math, could expand 
100× to 1,000×. That puts Cardano’s potential market cap in the $2.8 trillion 
to $28 trillion range. He points to projects like Midnight, which aims to 
bring data privacy to blockchains, and to Cardano’s role as a possible “DeFi 
layer” for Bitcoin. Those are the levers he says can drive the next big leg 
up. That vision carries plenty of risk. Blockchains often launch big ideas 
that take time—or never—find their footing. And pushing ADA to a 
multitrillion‑dollar valuation would demand major real‑world use, plus a flood 
of new users and developers. Even a 100× gain would redraw the charts, let 
alone 1,000×. Related Reading: Bitcoin Is A Lifeline, Says Billionaire, As US 
Faces Debt Time Bomb A Balanced Take ADA’s run has been impressive. It’s clear 
that building a living network, rather than simply holding coins, can pay off. 
But calling ADA “significantly better” than BTC turns on much more than past 
returns. It hinges on successful rollouts, deep user engagement, and fresh use 
cases that catch fire. Whether Cardano will rewrite blockchain history remains 
to be seen. For now, investors can look at the numbers, weigh the risks, and 
decide if they want a piece of a project that bets on being more than just 
money. Featured image from Unsplash, chart from TradingView
