Geneva, Switzerland, September 18th, 2025, Chainwire
TRON DAO, the community-governed DAO dedicated to accelerating the decentralization of the internet through blockchain technology and decentralized applications (dApps), announced today that PayPal USD will be available on the TRON network through Stargate Hydra as a permissionless token, PYUSD0, leveraging LayerZero’s Omnichain Fungible Token (OFT) Standard. PYUSD0 on TRON reflects PayPal and LayerZero’s work to drive greater availability of PYUSD, enabling the stablecoin to reach the markets that demand it and the users who want it through LayerZero’s distribution network.
“Stablecoins are one of the clearest examples of real-world adoption in crypto, driving everything from payments to remittances,” said Justin Sun, Founder of TRON. “The launch of PYUSD0 on TRON gives both users and institutions greater accessibility, and reflects our ongoing commitment to supporting assets that bring trust, efficiency, and broader access to the digital economy.”
“The US dollar is the foundation of finance. Stablecoins are the killer app within the crypto ecosystem,” said Bryan Pellegrino, Co-Founder and CEO, LayerZero Labs. With PYUSD0, PayPal USD expands its reach and flexibility to work across today’s networks and tomorrow’s. Launches like this make it obvious that we are at the start of a global financial market that breaks down borders and works around the clock.”
This integration builds on LayerZero’s acquisition of Stargate. Stargate pioneered the Hydra model for extending assets from a hub blockchain to spoke blockchains. With Stargate integrated into LayerZero, the Hydra model is now applied directly to extend PYUSD to TRON and other blockchains. No action will be required by end users and whether someone holds PYUSD or PYUSD0, it is one unified PayPal USD stablecoin: fully fungible and interoperable across blockchains.
The integration is closely aligned with TRON’s mission to deliver efficient, accessible, and secure settlement infrastructure for users and institutions worldwide. TRON has evolved into a core component of the global digital financial infrastructure, dedicated to expanding access and inclusion, with a cumulative transfer volume exceeding $21 trillion since its mainnet launch in 2018. TRON currently hosts over 332 million user accounts on the blockchain, with over $28 billion in total value locked across the ecosystem. On average, the TRON processes around 9 million transactions daily with over 2.83 million daily active accounts. Furthermore, TRON generated nearly $1 billion in protocol revenue driven by real-world activity across the network in each of the first two quarters of 2025, establishing a new all-time high.
This integration points to a future where established payment systems, advanced interoperability frameworks, and scalable blockchain networks converge to build the next generation of global financial infrastructure. By aligning PayPal’s expertise in digital payments, LayerZero’s cross-chain architecture, and the TRON blockchain’s scale and global reach, the initiative drives the development of financial systems that are secure, transparent, and inclusive for users worldwide
