World Wallnews (@world_wallnews) reportedPayPal issues PYUSD on Polygon, integrates into Open Money Stack for easier business use of stablecoin.
-
Naeem Aslam (@NaeemAslam23) reported🚨 🇺🇸 PAYPAL’S STABLECOIN ENTERS POLYGON AS BUSINESS PAYMENTS MOVE FASTER PayPal’s PYUSD is now live on Polygon through Paxos, giving businesses access to dollar-backed payments, settlement, wallets, fiat ramps, and compliance tools through Polygon’s Open Money Stack. The bigger story is payment speed. A company can move dollars across borders without waiting for slow banking rails, while PayPal pushes PYUSD deeper into real business use. $PYPL and ethereum:0x455e53cbb86018ac2b8092fdcd39d8444affc3f6 gain the strongest angle. PYUSD adoption supports PayPal payment volume, while Polygon benefits from stablecoin traffic.

LearnInvest (@LearnInvest2026) reportedPayPal is down nearly 90%, and payments have changed rules This chart puts three payments companies on the same market-cap timeline: PayPal, Adyen, and Block. Since the 2021 peak, PayPal’s market cap is down about 88.6%, while Adyen and Block are also down sharply, but closer to the 60% range. The whole sector has been repriced, but PayPal has been hit harder. That is usually not explained by “growth multiples fell” alone. ■ Payments are no longer just a checkout button PayPal’s challenge is that it used to be a default online payment option, but the next competitive cycle is not only about who can process checkout. Apple Pay embeds payment into the phone operating system. Adyen is closer to large merchants’ omnichannel acquiring stack. Block extends into small-business tools and financial services. The payment interface has become a bundle of operating systems, merchant back office, and financial products. That is one reason PayPal’s drawdown is so large. The market is not only punishing slower growth. It is asking a deeper question: if checkout becomes a commoditized function, what layer can PayPal still charge for? The chart also carries a useful warning. Payments demand has not disappeared. Online commerce, mobile payments, and cross-border transactions are still growing. What changed is the value split. Traffic control, merchant relationships, data, and financial services matter more than a standalone payment brand. So this is not just a PayPal stock story. It is a miniature version of the payments industry moving from brand trust to embedded infrastructure. When the rules change, the once-dominant interface can become the company that most needs to re-prove its value. Source: Quartr, company filings, public market data (Image: @glocalinvestor)

Lloyd (@Lloydcommotion) reportedIs there a reason that the @Eurostar app is not accepting @Revolut cards at the moment? Or it seems any cards from the apple wallet var a credit card. Even on the website there is an issue with @paypal. A glitch? Be good to know.
-
Sou Chi (@Sou__chi) reported@AskPayPal @PayPal I need urgent help. A US-based company is trying to send me a payment, but it was blocked with Error Code 14764. My card is fully confirmed, but I am located in Algeria, which might be triggering this compliance block. I cannot DM you. Could you please help me
-
TheMarketTell (@TheMarketTell) reported@NotA_Bull Wouldn’t necessarily say broken. $NKE is a turnaround story. $PYPL is an execution story. PayPal is still growing TPV double digits, buying back billions in stock, and generating massive FCF. The market just wants to see consistent growth reaccelerate.

Moongz (@TakatotoSanoshi) reportedI'm up 12.4% on my Paypal shares. It hasn't gone down at all since I bought them. I probably missed my chance to go big.

QuertE07 | C0mms open! 🦋 (@QuertE07) reportedFor now, I only have it set up to be paid for via a paypal business invoice! I don't know whether this restricts things by much but hopefully that doesn't spell a problem for anyone interested!

Greatest Good Tarot (@GreatestGoodTar) reported🧵1/3 PayPal works 98% of the time - but when it screws up, it royally screws up! I changed my bank, & forgot to update PayPal. Totally my fault. That lead to my account being -£28. No problem, I’ll just pay from new bank. Nope. @PayPal for some reason refuses to take the money

Nexa (@donje396) reportedMany creators are facing withdrawal issues. Payment stay stuck in "Pending" and there are frequent PayPal problem.

TheDungeonDelver (@A_DungeonDelver) reported@RaltsAuthor You should. You don't know me except here and our occasional communication on YouTube, but I had a friend, a dear, wonderful friend whom I miss every day. His name was Eric and he was one of the programmers of Mechwarrior 2 from Activision back in the 1990s. Before GoFundMe, before anything much other than PayPal was a going concern, when I heard about his health problems - before I even really got to know him - I wanted to help. Because I'd gotten tons of fun out of MW2, and he seemed like a decent guy. He was working on a 3d terrain generator, procedural that is, that was based on what he'd done with 3d graphics in MW2 and at that time you had to sell something to get money on PayPal so we set up a donationware download point and put a PayPal button on it. It helped he and his wife get through a drought until SSDI kicked in. Open the GoFundMe. It's not begging; there's people who care about you, bet.

PolyBender (@p0lybender) reportedELON MUSK’S #1 REGRET: HE TOOK 70 SECONDS TO ANSWER THIS QUESTION He reflected on his carrer and revealed the biggest mistake he’s made across his companies, including his first startup and PayPal. The error? Prioritizing raw talent over personality. Musk admitted he made this mistake multiple times, wrongly believing that "it's just about the brain". He eventually realized that while intelligence is important, it actually matters significantly whether a person has a good heart.

• SHOWDOWN • Comms Open (@Showdown_Ilust) reportedPayPal is real ****. Some idiot cost me $70 because of a problem of his that indirectly affected me, and my account just got hacked to pay for a $25 Uber ride in Canada; I don't know if trying to grow as an independent artist is a good idea atp.

Race 🕊️ (@multiplanet1) reportedElon Musk was asked what advice he'd give to his younger self. Most billionaires answer this with something about taking more risks or believing in yourself earlier. Elon said he would tell his younger self to spend less time working. The interviewer laughed. Elon didn't. He explained that the version of him that built PayPal, SpaceX, and Tesla did so at a cost that he's not sure was worth paying. That there are years he doesn't remember because he was inside a factory for 100 hours a week and the days blurred into one long shift. That he missed relationships, health, and moments with his children that he can never recover. He said the tragedy isn't that he chose work. It's that he's not capable of choosing differently. That his brain is wired to see unsolved problems as emergencies and he doesn't know how to turn that off. Even knowing the cost, even regretting the cost, he would probably do the same thing again because he can't help it. That's the answer nobody wants to hear from the most successful builder alive. That the thing that made him extraordinary is the same thing that took everything else. And he'd warn his younger self about it while knowing the warning would be ignored. Some lessons can only be learned by living them. Even if you already know the answer.

Leo_Del_Rio_27 (@Leo_Del_Rio_27) reported@FormallyQdified @Prolotario1 @snwse21 I couldn't use my debit or credit card for a long time. I ended up having to use PayPal for a while until they fixed the issue.

Alisontomyradioooo (@arisonsned) reportedJust an FYI if you buy CDs or Merch online - always use paypal! It’s a week and my @Madonna CD still hasn’t materialised, nor has a refund. You can’t call #BSIMerch because they have so many issues, they don’t take calls so you’re basically stuck until/if they decide to refund

SuperSavageFacts (@SuprSavageFacts) reported@Demura_Dusk 💯💯💯 It's disgusting how many bastards are out here filling their coffers off of the death, suffering, starvation and loss that the Palestinians have faced and are facing. Those people are the scum of all scum. Another problem with this is, they're already losing 25-35% off the top, depending on the rates at the exchange, where most of them collect their money from. Add that 20% on top, along with any other fees, like Stripe/Paypal, they are r3eceiving a very small percentage of their own funds, while having to pay exhorbtitant rates for food and daily living necessities.

Harsh Rao (@harshrao_x) reported@AskPayPal An automated algorithm permanently limited my Indian account within seconds of registration. I never got to use it or see the dashboard, but my phone number is now trapped. Frontline support turned me away. Please DM so a human manager can review this system error.
