In my view, PayPal is not really good in marketing PYUSD hence it is not getting more business volume despite the fact that we are now in the bullish season. I am suggesting that PayPal works a lot with many big crypto exchanges to include their stablecoin in their rosters of supported coins and not just rely on PayPal prowess itself. We have to remember that PayPal has no real crypto exchange infrastructure hence the use and need for its stablecoin is not really there compared to other leading players in the crypto market. I believe that since PayPal is really an established payment platform, it should have easily pushed PYUSD to the top but this is not the case hence they should take an action now and analyze why this is to. I am also suggesting that they should make an airdrop of PYUSD to all members of this forum as the best way to promote the said digital asset to the masses. Raise your hand if you agree with this good suggestion!I'm raising my hand in agreement, I wouldn't mind if they gave me some free stablecoins I'll definitely promote them. ;)
PayPal came late to launch their own stablecoin and it may not likely have huge marketcap but I think $221 million is good and if it is reputable and not depegged but making people to have trust in it, the marketcap will gradually increase.I agree with you, there are already established stablecoins that many people 'trust', and to add to that stablecoins are risky, they can be easily frozen and can be depegged, so for people to 'trust' new stablecoins is going to be difficult. Usdt and usdc are already the most popular in the market and it will take pyusd time to get to that level.
Paypal's PYUSD has not gained popularity due to Paypal's strict centralization, which may push users towards more popular solutions such as USDT/USDC/DAI instead of PYUSD. We should not forget that the LUNA shock will make many people move away from investing extensively in new stable currencies compared to the past.I don't think that is the reason why PYUSD has not became more popular.
