Jesse Pollak, the creator of the Ethereum layer-2 network Base, expects the Coinbase Wallet feature to be available for users in 50 countries by the end of 2025.
Coinbase Wallet will soon roll out a “Tap to Pay” crypto solution to compete against Cash App, Venmo, PayPal and other fast payment firms.
Speaking to Cointelegraph, Coinbase Wallet lead and Base founder Jesse Pollak revealed the feature for Coinbase’s non-custodial cryptocurrency wallet in “internal alpha right now,” with a full rollout “coming very soon.”
“Tap to pay is going to be huge, particularly for the long tail of merchants where maybe they are currently using Cash App or Venmo or PayPal,” he said at the DevCon conference in Bangkok on Nov. 13.
