According to LayerZero, PYUSD0 remains fully fungible with PYUSD, ensuring 1:1 redemption across supported chains. This expansion builds on PayPal’s adoption of the omnichain fungible token standard, designed to reduce liquidity fragmentation and improve cross-chain settlements.

Adoption Strategy Targets DeFi and Global Payments

PayPal is positioning PYUSD0 to extend its reach across DeFi, payments, and fintech applications while maintaining strict compliance. With a supply of 1.9 billion, PYUSD remains smaller than USDT and USDC but benefits from PayPal’s global payments rails.

The company is expanding usage through new products like PayPal Links, which integrates both traditional and digital payments. Broader support for PYUSD across wallets, apps, and protocols may accelerate adoption despite competition from larger stablecoin rivals.

Sei Market Momentum Aligns With Expansion

The Sei Network is gaining momentum as PYUSD0 joins its ecosystem, positioning Sei as a settlement layer for global finance. Sei provides sub-second finality, low fees, and institutional-grade throughput, strengthening its role in stablecoin and payment markets.

Sei’s native token trades at $0.3378, up 6.97% in the past 24 hours, supported by rising spot and futures volumes. Market cap stands at $2.08 billion, with circulating supply at 6.13 billion SEI out of 10 billion total.
