PayPal 表示，美国证券交易委员会 (SEC) 已放弃对其美元稳定币的调查。
PayPal 在 4 月 29 日提交的监管文件中表示，SEC 已结束对 PayPal USD (PYUSD) 的调查，不会采取任何行动。
该公司表示，其于 2023 年 11 月收到了 SEC 执法部门就其稳定币发出的传票。
PayPal 当时表示：“传票要求提供相关文件。我们正在配合 SEC 的调查。”
该公司在其最新文件中表示，SEC 已于 2 月份通知其“将在不采取执法行动的情况下结束调查”。
PayPal 表示，其稳定币可 100% 兑换美元，并“完全由”美元存款支持，包括短期国债和现金等价物。
然而，在由竞争对手 Tether 和 Circle 主导的拥挤市场中，这款稳定币一直难以获得发展动力。 PYUSD 的市值仅为 8.8 亿美元，不到 Tether 1485 亿美元的 1%。

与此同时，4 月 24 日，PayPal 宣布与 Coinbase 合作，以扩大 PYUSD 的采用率。
PayPal 总裁兼首席执行官 Alex Chriss 表示：“我们很高兴能与 Coinbase 以及整个加密货币社区携手，共同推动全新、激动人心且富有创新性的用例，并将 PYUSD 置于核心地位。”
