FAQ
Is PYUSD a safe token?
As of the 2026-10-09 snapshot, PYUSD scores 80/100 (grade B) on HostDeFi's on-chain read — based on a contract that has unconfirmed mint controls, has unconfirmed freeze and blacklist controls, liquidity of $61.19M and 111,057 holders, with the creator wallet holding <0.01% of supply. That grades contract and market structure, not price direction — a clean read is not a guarantee, so re-scan before trading, since on-chain state can change.
Can you sell PYUSD, or is it a honeypot?
Our Ethereum read covers market structure, not sell-side contract behaviour like honeypots or transfer taxes, as of 2026-10-09. Before assuming you can exit freely, run the live scan above — it reads the contract directly.
Who holds most of PYUSD?
The wallet that created PYUSD holds <0.01% of the supply as of 2026-10-09 — a small stake, under the 5% the scanners flag. That sits alongside a holder base of 111,057; a broad base lowers the odds that any one seller can steer the price, but the creator's share is the number to watch first.
Can PYUSD's supply be inflated?
This snapshot grades market structure only — contract-level supply controls on Ethereum aren't assessed here yet. Run the live scanner, which reads the contract in real time.
What is the PYUSD contract address?
The PYUSD contract address on Ethereum is 0x6c3ea9036406852006290770bedfcaba0e23a0e8. Always verify a token by its contract address, not its name or ticker — scam clones copy tickers, but the address is unique.
Where can you buy PYUSD safely?
Run the live on-chain scan at the top of this page first; if PYUSD clears, you can swap it here directly. Whatever venue you use, match the contract address (0x6c3ea9036406852006290770bedfcaba0e23a0e8) exactly before trading — copying the ticker is how clone scams catch buyers, and the address is the one field they can't fake.

HostDeFi's generated read on PYUSD — written from the stored snapshot, figures re-rendered at each refresh.
PYUSD is what a stablecoin looks like when it's built for regulators first and DeFi second. PayPal USD is issued not by PayPal directly but by Paxos Trust Company, a New York–chartered trust supervised by NYDFS, with reserves held in dollar deposits, U.S. Treasuries, and equivalents, attested monthly. The Ethereum deployment lives at 0x6c3ea9036406852006290770bedfcaba0e23a0e8, where HostDeFi's October 9, 2026 snapshot records roughly $61 million of tracked pool liquidity and $11 million of daily on-chain volume — modest next to USDC or USDT, in keeping with a coin whose primary life is inside PayPal and Venmo balances rather than on DEXes.
Read the contract powers through the regulated-issuer lens or you'll misread them as red flags. PYUSD's contract can mint (against dollars in), burn (against dollars out), pause transfers entirely, and freeze or even wipe balances at specific addresses under Paxos's asset-protection role. On an anonymous token, that list is a rug in waiting; here it is the legally mandated toolkit of a New York trust company, and NYDFS supervision is precisely the reason those powers exist. The trade you make holding PYUSD is explicit: maximum issuer accountability, in exchange for maximum issuer control.
The distinctive risk profile follows from that trade. Depeg risk is comparatively low — Paxos structures reserves so that regulators, not market confidence alone, stand behind redemption, and the trust structure ring-fences reserves from a Paxos bankruptcy. Censorship exposure is correspondingly high: an address Paxos freezes is simply done transacting. And with thinner DEX depth than the giant stablecoins, large on-chain exits deserve a quote check even when the peg is perfect.
As always, the counterfeit risk outruns the issuer risk on-chain: "PYUSD" is a brand anyone can type into a token factory, and only the address above is PayPal's dollar. Figures are HostDeFi's snapshot dated October 9, 2026 — the live scan re-reads them on demand.
