The browser extension already allows users to buy crypto directly from their wallets using popular methods such as <a href=\"https:\/\/nftnewstoday.com\/2022\/06\/26\/moonpay-partners-with-universal-and-fox-to-launch-nft-platform\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">MoonPay<\/a>, CoinbasePay, Wyre, and Transak.<\/p>\n<p>According to Lorenzo Santos, the product manager at MetaMask, the new feature will make it easy for users to explore Web3.<\/p>\n<p>In a statement, he notes:<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cThis integration with PayPal will allow our U.S. users to not just buy crypto seamlessly through MetaMask, but also to easily explore the Web3 ecosystem.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Santos says users of the wallet can expect to incur a 1% fee on all purchases plus any other applicable PayPal fees. However, he did not disclose if Apple\u2019s 30% in-app purchase fee would be applicable in this scenario.<\/p>\n<p>Following the news of the integration, Aaron Gould, PayPal\u2019s Crypto Communication Lead, jumped on Twitter to share his excitement.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"\/>\n<p>The new feature is much welcomed within the Web3 space. Experts believe it will go a long way toward helping onboard more users to the crypto ecosystem. It simplifies Ethereum purchases for crypto beginners who might find it difficult to use an exchange before carefully transferring their funds to MetaMask.<\/p>\n<p>Ethereum serves as the heartbeat of Web3, having paved the way for the most innovation witnessed in the space. Most DeFi projects, such as NFT platforms, reside on the blockchain, and to access them, you need ETH.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/nftnewstoday.com\/2022\/12\/17\/metamask-enables-buying-of-ethereum-using-paypal\/?utm_source=rss&#038;utm_medium=rss&#038;utm_campaign=metamask-enables-buying-of-ethereum-using-paypal\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It\u2019s now possible to buy ETH on MetaMask using PayPal thanks to a new integration.
