YouTube enables PYUSD stablecoin payouts for US creators: Report

Resumo

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.

For $100,000 a Month: Truth Social Sells Access to Trump's Posts to Investment Firms

In August 2026, Trump Media and Technology Group (TMTG) launched Truth API, a paid data service offering real-time access to posts from influential Truth Social accounts, including Donald Trump's, for institutional and algorithmic trading firms. Subscriptions reportedly cost up to $100,000 monthly, with discounts for long-term contracts. TMTG's CEO framed it as a strategy to monetize platform assets and create shareholder value. The move drew criticism from lawmakers, including Democrats Elizabeth Warren and Adam Schiff, who called for an SEC investigation, and Republican Bill Cassidy, who criticized the "sale" of privileged access. An AI analysis notes this creates a market risk architecture similar to past incidents where algorithms rapidly traded on unverified social media posts, raising questions about accountability for potential misinformation or manipulation.

Strategy leaves preferred STRC dividend at 12% as price still below par

Strategy's preferred STRC shares remain priced significantly below their $100 par value, closing July at $89.46 despite a monthly gain. The company confirmed its August dividend will hold at the recently increased 12% annual rate, paid semi-monthly. Management's stated objective is for the shares to trade at $99-$100, though no timeline was given. The firm reported a large Q2 net loss due to unrealized losses on its Bitcoin holdings but has built a $3.75 billion cash reserve to support preferred dividend payments for over two years. It has also begun repurchasing STRC shares while they trade below par.

Bitcoin Withdrawals Continue: 8 Years of Storage in a Coldcard Cold Wallet Ended in Zero

Coldcard Hardware Wallet Hacked: Losses Mount Due to Vulnerable Seed Generation A critical vulnerability in Coldcard hardware wallets has led to a continued wave of fund thefts. According to Galaxy Research, the total stolen has reached 1,367.05 BTC (approx. $88.6 million) from 4,585 addresses, a significant increase from the initial 594.5 BTC reported on July 30, 2026. Most of the stolen funds remain on the attackers' addresses. The issue is not with the current firmware, which Coinkite has updated, but with seed phrases generated on vulnerable devices between March 2021 and the release of fixed firmware versions. Due to a programmer error, devices switched from using a hardware random number generator to the software-based Yasmarang generator, which was initialized with publicly accessible data like the chip's serial number. This made the seed phrases predictable through offline brute-force attacks, meaning wallets remain at risk until funds are moved to a new wallet generated with the patched firmware. Affected devices include Mk2/Mk3 with firmware 4.0.1–4.1.9 (and up to 5.0.3), Mk4/Mk5 up to version 5.6.0, and Q models up to 1.5.0Q. The only exceptions are seeds created with a high-entropy method like at least 50 independent dice rolls or a strong unique BIP-39 passphrase. All other owners must generate a new seed on the fixed firmware and transfer their assets. A case highlighting the human impact involves a 39-year-old long-term investor who lost 2 BTC (approx. $130,000) in minutes. He had accumulated the Bitcoin over eight years through physical labor, viewing it as a financial lifeline and a retirement plan in a country suffering from hyperinflation. His story underscores that even conservative "buy and hold in cold storage" strategies can be compromised by such underlying technical flaws. From a technical perspective, this incident echoes historical failures where weak random number generators undermined cryptographic security, challenging the assumption that offline storage is automatically foolproof.

Donald Trump's Company Sold Another Large Batch of Bitcoins!

Donald Trump's company, Trump Media & Technology Group, reportedly transferred another large batch of Bitcoin to the CryptoCom exchange. Blockchain analysis indicates that addresses linked to Trump Media moved approximately 2,628 BTC (worth around $165 million) to the exchange. Prior reports suggested the company had acquired a total of 11,542 BTC at an average price of $118,500. It is claimed that by 2026, about 7,281 BTC had been withdrawn from these addresses, with approximately 4,261 BTC still held on them. The total realized and unrealized losses from Trump Media's Bitcoin investments are estimated to be roughly $555 million. It is important to note that sending Bitcoin to an exchange does not definitively mean the assets were sold. Such transfers could also be for custody, liquidity management, or other financial operations. However, movements from cold wallets to centralized exchanges are commonly viewed as potential sales activity.
