Most large company entries into the crypto space seem to fizzle out and disappear due to lack of use, and how annoying it is to deal with currencies which fluctuate in value between the time you've spent them and the time the transaction is approved (I understand there are lightning networks), and then there's the issue with maintaining wallets.
It really just adds nothing but extra complexity to the existing electronic payment methods. And takes away tons of things like regulators, regulations, consumer protections, strong case law.
Given that I basically never use PayPal anymore I'm thinking this might be a desperate attempt to find any new market to grow in.
There's plenty of alternatives these days so now I just use the direct credit card option on most sites.
