Paxos is PayPal’s broker that will use Chainlink Proof of Reserves to prove on chain assets backing the stable coin. Linkies will inherit the earth.

Now we're going back to 2017 levels of discussion. You can use a bank account as a data source, but you need a mechanism to get that data to the blockchain. That mechanism is called an oracle and we need a way to ensure the oracle doesn't tamper with the data. If they or someone could fudge the numbers via transit, that'll spell doom for the stablecoin at large.

long term it just fragments and pushes activity onto layer 2 networks which just diminishes ether's value as a universal base currency on their own ecosystem.

eth's value rests entirely on ethereum's ability to continue with large upgrades of the single base layer chain. it's not like bitcoin where l2s merely enhance btc's utility.

ETH is garbage. It is the shittiest scam trash that exists. The more it's used, the more it breaks. It's slow, it's unreliable, it can't scale, and all of the nodes are controlled by Blackrock. Anything built on top of ETH is a fucking joke.

Cool, but unless I'm misreading, why the fuck is Paxos Trust issuing it and backing the funds? That gives PayPal themselves zero recourse if the reserves burn.
In fact, with Paxos already issuing the Pax Dollar, this is basically nothing but a rebrand. If you don't trust the literally-who USDP, I don't think you should trust PYUSD.
