PayPal is finally venturing into the world of cryptocurrencies. The company announced on Tuesday that it plans to launch its Stablecoin, which will be backed by traditional currencies such as the U.S. dollar, British pound, and euro.

The new coin will be called “Paxpa” and is expected to launch in 2020, according to PayPal CEO Dan Schulman. Paxpa will not have any transaction fees and will be based on an open-source blockchain platform called Stellar Lumens (XLM).

Schulman reports that Paxpa has been designed to solve the problem of volatility in crypto markets, which makes crypto payments difficult for merchants.
