    Stripe and Advent Reportedly Offer $53 Billion to Acquire PayPal According to Reuters, Stripe and Advent International have offered to acquire PayPal for $60.50 per share, valuing the payments giant at more than $53 billion. The offer is backed by around $50 billion in committed financing and represents a roughly 28% premium to PayPal's latest closing price. Sources said the parties are aiming to reach an agreement by the end of July, though there is no certainty a deal will be completed. Stripe has increasingly focused on stablecoin infrastructure and crypto payments, while PayPal launched PYUSD in 2023 and has become one of the largest regulated stablecoin issuers.

Trump Jr promoting AgentPay added another ~600K. Neither are crypto-native.

It’s the first time the AI agent narrative had a clear economic primitive behind it. That’s why everything else aligned.

Aligned with Quant’s mission of enabling institutions to safely and securely transact on any layer 1 network while preserving security, privacy and compliance. Timely that we’ve released Quant Fusion’s "Open Source Connector" specification. This has been trialled very successfully.

Excited to see how this progresses and grows.
