📢 Big Update for #stablecoins : The U.S. SEC has officially closed its investigation into PayPal’s stablecoin, PYUSD, without taking any enforcement action.

In a recent filing, PayPal revealed the SEC issued a document subpoena in Nov 2023 and concluded the probe in Feb 2025. While this is positive news, PayPal also warned of potential future compliance costs from evolving regulations — and risks if PYUSD is ever tied to illicit activity or litigation.

For now, this closure could help ease institutional concerns around stablecoin adoption. 🚀
