On Thursday, PayPal's crypto trading and payments went live for all eligible customers in the United States. Per its updated announcement, PayPal ended its waitlist for customers looking to use cryptocurrency in the U. S. Trading features a limit of $20,000 per week, which is double the originally announced $10,000. PayPal ultimately plans to make crypto payments available at 26 million merchants globally. A representative told Cointelegraph that PayPal will notify U. S. customers about the general availability of crypto services in the coming days. Much-anticipated global services  are expected to launch at the beginning of 2021, alongside crypto payments on Venmo. PayPal  initially announced its plans to integrate crypto three weeks ago. The announcement led to a boost in BTC price. As part of its crypto services, PayPal received the first conditional Bitlicense from the New York Department of Financial Services, one of the most hawkish sub-national financial regulators in the U. S. Many noted that the terms of PayPal's crypto services would entail that  coins bought on the platform  would not be able to leave, likely as part of its compromise with regulators in bringing crypto services to such a wide user base.
