In a conference call last week, PayPal CEO Dan Schulman outlined several ways the payments giant is using to expand its crypto services, including the launch of a “super app”, banking integration, opening, UK expansion, and wallet migration.

The CEO stated that

“The current momentum of the company is satisfactory and the market is showing favorable results and we are seeing greater opportunities in the market.”

The company said in Q1 that its crypto services are showing “really good results.” In April, Schulman said that demand for crypto on the PayPal platform was “many times” higher than initially expected.

PayPal recently increased its weekly cryptocurrency purchase limit to $100,000 and removed the annual limit entirely. This is a five-time growth over the past weekly limit of $20,000 and a remarkably increment over the $50,000 annual purchase limit.

As per a recent report, the number of cryptocurrency users worldwide reached 221 million in June. In just four months, that number has grown from 100 million to 200 million.
