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 did not immediately respond to questions about which cryptocurrencies Detroit plans to accept, but PayPal only supports a small handful of tokens — bitcoin, ether, bitcoin cash, litecoin, and PayPal’s own stablecoin, PayPal USD.
