PayPal is using its PYUSD stablecoin to fund AI infrastructure via USD.AI. The collaboration provides financing for GPUs and data centers, backed by a 4.5% yield incentive on up to $1 billion in deposits starting January 2026. USD.AI already manages $650 million in compute-backed assets, turning hardware into liquid collateral to address a $6.7 trillion market surge by 2029.
