根据该公司高级副总裁 Jose Fernandez da Ponte 的一份声明，支付处理商 PayPal 将允许用户将他们的加密货币转移到外部钱包和交易所。这位高管证实，用户对新功能的要求很高。

到报告 来自 TechCrunch 的 PayPal 区块链、加密和数字货币总经理 da Ponte 表示：
自从我们开始在我们的平台上提供购买加密货币以来，此功能是我们用户最需要的。
过去，PayPal 用户可以购买比特币、以太坊、莱特币和其他加密货币。最初，只允许用户持有数字资产作为获得其价格敞口的一种方式。
最终，PayPal 宣布将启用加密货币基金来支付产品和服务费用。到目前为止，这种加密货币结账功能是该公司向数字资产领域扩张战略的最新举措。
最新的加密提款功能将为用户提供更多的自由。但是，当他们将交易从他们的 PayPal 账户发送到外部钱包时，他们将不得不支付任何网络费用。
这些交易费用因区块链而异。在以太坊上，当网络拥堵严重时，交易费用可以是原始金额的两倍，这使其成为最昂贵的区块链之一。
PayPal 到 PayPal 的转账对用户来说仍然是免费的，但人们将需要完成额外的身份验证层。 Fernandez da Ponte 补充说：
如果用户在其他地方拥有加密货币并想要整合，他们可以将其从外部地址带到 PayPal。他们还可以向 PayPal 系统中的任何人发送加密货币。
该高管去年暗示了这一新功能。正如 Fernandez da Ponte 告诉 TechCrunch 的那样，他认为发送和接收加密交易的能力是该平台的一个自然步骤，也是对“希望利用其数字资产做更多事情”的用户的改进。
支付处理商早在 2020 年 10 月就宣布了其加密货币产品。当时，这一消息被认为是比特币牛市的主要催化剂之一，在随后的几个月里，比特币从年度低点 3,500 美元升至 65,000 美元以上。
PayPal 允许其用户购买、出售和持有数字资产是新采用趋势中的第一个公告，该趋势见证了美国第一家将 BTC 整合到其资产负债表中的上市公司，以及全球最大的公司采用它作为支付方式。
Fernandez da Ponte 告诉 TechCrunch，该公司希望成为用户在法定世界和数字资产世界之间进行交易的桥梁。他说：
我们将自己视为法定或传统金融环境与 Web3 环境之间的管道。我们正在启用与其他钱包、交易所和应用程序的连接。
从 PayPal 首次宣布其数字资产服务到 2021 年该公司推出其加密结账服务，加密市场几乎增长到 3 万亿美元的市值。最近，该行业损失了超过 50% 的价值。

然而，Fernandez da Ponte 声称该公司对该领域有长期计划：
此举表明我们长期处于此状态。我认为坚持到底并继续投资该领域很重要。
