The crypto payment option, which will be offered through a “secure payment platform managed by PayPal,” according to the release, is expected to go live in mid-2025. A spokesperson for the city told CoinDesk the city will only accept the cryptocurrencies supported by PayPal — bitcoin, ether, bitcoin cash, litecoin, and PayPal’s own stablecoin, PayPal USD — but all crypto payments will settle in USD.
