Coinbase Drops Fees on PayPal’s PYUSD—While Quietly Filing for XRP Futures

Zero-fee conversions for PayPal’s stablecoin hit Coinbase—just as the exchange makes a stealth play for XRP derivatives dominance. Traders get frictionless PYUSD swaps while the platform hedges its bets with a crypto relic Wall Street wrote off years ago.
Behind the curtain: The PYUSD move lets Coinbase tap PayPal’s 400M+ users, but the XRP futures filing reveals their real game—milking volatility from every corner of the market, even ’zombie’ assets. Because in crypto, yesterday’s courtroom loser is tomorrow’s leveraged cash cow.
Bonus jab: Nothing unites former rivals like the smell of fresh arbitrage—watch how fast PayPal’s ’web3 ambitions’ turn into a fee-generating pipeline for Coinbase’s order books.
