PayPal halts venture capital portfolio sale after low offers at 60 cents on the dollar

PayPal has paused the sale of its venture capital portfolio after receiving offers no higher than 60 cents on the dollar. The portfolio includes investments in companies like Tabby and Anchorage. This move follows PayPal's earlier decision to wind down its venture capital arm as part of a broader corporate restructuring aimed at focusing on three main business areas: checkout solutions, consumer financial services, and payment services including cryptocurrency. The company is currently focused on improving core operations and cutting costs as part of its multiyear turnaround plan.
