YouTube enables PYUSD stablecoin payouts for US creators: Report

Resumen

YouTube has enabled US-based creators to receive payouts in PayPal’s stablecoin, PYUSD, according to a report. The feature, confirmed by PayPal’s head of crypto, allows creators to accept payments in PYUSD without YouTube directly handling cryptocurrency. This integration builds on PayPal’s existing payment relationship with the platform. The move signals a shift for YouTube, which has historically restricted crypto-related content, and could significantly boost stablecoin adoption given the platform’s large user base. PYUSD, launched in 2023, has grown rapidly, with its market cap surging from around $500 million in January to $3.9 billion, aided by recent integrations with platforms like Spark and Bitfinex.

Video-sharing giant YouTube has reportedly enabled US-based creators to accept payouts in PayPal’s stablecoin, PYUSD.

Fortune reported on Thursday that PayPal’s head of crypto, May Zabaneh, said the feature is live, but only for users in the US. The firm integrated the ability for recipients to accept payments in PYUSD earlier this year, with YouTube ultimately opting to open that choice up to its creators.

“The beauty of what we’ve built is that YouTube doesn’t have to touch crypto and so we can help take away that complexity,” she said.

PayPal has had a long-running relationship with YouTube, with the platform allowing users to pay via its services for many years, alongside utilizing it for creator AdSense payouts.

YouTube may be warming up to crypto, after its history of shadowbanning crypto content, as digital assets are making their way into the mainstream. The move could also be a potential boon for stablecoin adoption, given the size of YouTube’s platform.

The stablecoin market has exploded over the past year as mainstream businesses, institutions and governments have moved to integrate the assets with traditional finance.

PSYUD was launched in mid-2023 and has a current market cap of $3.9 billion according to CoinGecko data. It has skyrocketed in market value since the start of the year, increasing from around $500 million in January.

A significant chunk of PYUSD’s growth has come since the start of September, when the market cap was sitting around $1 billion. During that month, PYUSD was integrated with Spark’s lending markets and Bitfinex’s Stable, an institutional-grade stablecoin blockchain.

Base Under Pressure

**Title: The Pressure Mounts for Base** Base, the Ethereum Layer 2 scaling solution backed by Coinbase, is facing significant pressure and public scrutiny from its leadership following the launch of Robinhood Chain. Base co-founder Jesse Pollak recently acknowledged strategic missteps, admitting that the chain's past focus on social and creator tokens (e.g., through Farcaster, Zora) failed to deliver sustainable adoption. He has refocused on core infrastructure, handing leadership of the Base App back to Coinbase's Cobie. While Base remains a top L2 contender alongside OP Mainnet and Arbitrum, and boasts the highest TVL (nearly $12B), its weaknesses are being highlighted by the new competitor. Key criticisms include its slow progress on decentralization. Base has faced issues with its single sequencer causing block production halts, and L2BEAT is reportedly considering downgrading its decentralization rating from Stage 1 to Stage 0. This contrasts sharply with the rapid initial success of Robinhood Chain, whose DEX quickly entered the top five by volume. The leadership styles of the parent companies are also being compared: Robinhood's CEO actively engages with new projects, while a recent incident where Coinbase's Brian Armstrong briefly changed his profile picture—sparking and then crashing a related meme token—drew community ire and mockery. Pollak stated Base is working with Coinbase on tokenized stocks backed 1:1 by real equity, differentiating it from Robinhood's derivatives model. However, the article argues that Base's most urgent task is to address its long-standing technical and trust issues. With more traditional finance players likely to emulate Robinhood's path, Base must use this competitive pressure to solidify its position as long-term financial infrastructure.

White House Concession Removes Ethical Hurdle, Clarity Act Races Against Final Window Before Recess?

On July 21st, industry sources reported that the Trump administration has agreed to include an ethics provision in the "Clarity Act" (Digital Asset Market Clarity Act of 2025). This concession addresses the long-standing conflict-of-interest concerns regarding government officials and the crypto industry, potentially removing the final major obstacle to the bill's progress. Additionally, Patrick Witt, the executive director of the White House's Digital Asset Advisory Committee, confirmed he will remain in his role to help finalize the bill, alleviating previous concerns about his potential departure. The Clarity Act aims to establish a unified federal regulatory framework for the U.S. digital asset market. Its core objective is to resolve regulatory ambiguity by defining different types of digital assets (digital commodities, investment contract assets, and permitted payment stablecoins) and clarifying the respective oversight roles of the SEC and CFTC. This would end the long-running jurisdictional dispute between the two agencies and provide clearer compliance paths for the industry. With the ethics issue moving toward resolution, the most urgent challenge now is time. The U.S. Congress is set to begin its August recess in mid-August, leaving only a few working weeks to finalize the text and advance the bill through the Senate. Industry advocates, like the Blockchain Association's Kristin Smith, stress that this is a critical moment. If negotiations conclude successfully in the coming weeks, the Clarity Act could pass a key hurdle before the recess; otherwise, it may face significant delays. If enacted, the Clarity Act could mark a historic turning point in crypto regulation. By providing a clearer and more predictable legal framework, it aims to reduce uncertainty for businesses, developers, and traditional financial institutions looking to enter the digital asset space, potentially setting a global benchmark for market structure regulation.

Midnight’s 515M NIGHT hack sends token down 32% – Will $0.015 hold?

In July 2026, the Midnight network was hacked, with 515 million NIGHT tokens drained from a cross-chain bridge contract. The attacker sold a large portion, causing the token price to crash 32% to an all-time low of $0.015. This triggered panic selling, spiking trading volume and driving market indicators into deeply oversold territory. While the Midnight Foundation stated its core network remained secure, the incident left the wrapped token on BNB unbacked. Analysts warn of continued bearish pressure, with the key question being whether the $0.015 support level will hold.

AI Era, Industrial Revolution, and Future Civilization Interview — Zhang Dingwen: The Future Does Not Belong to Chasers

"AI Era, Industrial Revolution and Future Civilization: An Interview with Zhang Dingwen – The Future Does Not Belong to Those Who Chase" In this interview, entrepreneur Zhang Dingwen reflects on his entrepreneurial journey and philosophy, moving beyond discussions of financing or success to emphasize understanding the "era" itself. He argues that true entrepreneurs should not chase short-term trends ("winds"), but position themselves in the direction of long-term technological and societal evolution. Zhang shares key lessons from his early days, including the realization that user value does not automatically translate to commercial value. For him, the core of entrepreneurship is not building a company but constantly upgrading one's own "cognition" – the ability to interpret information, ask the right questions, and understand the underlying "causes" behind business outcomes, not just the effects. His thinking has evolved from a focus on creating good products to a strategic focus on building "entrances" – platforms that naturally connect users to digital services. He sees smart wearables, like watches, not merely as hardware but as potential future gateways combining technological, financial, social, and even fashion attributes to create sustained user relationships and ecosystems. Ultimately, Zhang's vision transcends individual products or companies. He discusses business competition in three stages: product, platform, and finally, "civilization" – where the greatest companies influence how society operates by defining new rules and ways of life. He believes the mission of a truly great enterprise is to solve problems of its time, build enduring trust, and contribute lasting value, leaving behind not just wealth but a positive impact on how the world works. The future, he concludes, belongs not to the fastest, but to those with the correct long-term direction and a commitment to continuous learning and evolution.
