I tried to add a usd account to the wallet without an attached card and PayPal won't let me set it as the main payment account for the next transaction. Does anyone know why? I'm from Romania

You can only add a local bank account to a country specific paypal account, the exception is that you can add a U.S bank account to most countries paypal accounts. This is because Paypal is a U.S company and allows that for its citizens working internationally.

 

However that U.S bank account has to have been opened in the U.S. You can't add a virtual U.S bank account like Wise or Payoneer OR a USD currency bank account.
