    @SpawnWaveMedia Dude that has been an issue since the ******* PS4 came out. I always tell people to never link their ******* cards to that ****. If ya don’t have PayPal use PSN cards. Do not ******* put your credit or god forbid your ******* debit card info into that ******* system.

    @AShipcore We also want to help but the thing is, there is not a source or mediator for the transfer of money. As for me, I tried using PayPal or Wise but due to some documentation error can't form an account. And Indian UPI system is not capable for intl transfer as it is region based +

    @Noblelife2134 He grew up in a violent place that probably predisposed him to become ruthless. The pattern was always there. In the early days of paypal he lied about servers (empty racks), early das of Tesla he lied about the roadster (deliver roadsters with a broken gearbox), ...(the pattern never ended)

    @Pirat_Nation Ik it's not ideal but just don't use PayPal for anything. It's a terrible service known for severe malpractice. Invoice to bank account still remains the most secure until something new comes along offering instant transfers as a competitor.

    @ExampleInvest11 I was briefly fully allocated to $PYPL yes My theory on PayPal was that it was so cheap that it could not get that much cheaper and that is true to an extent. It found a hard floor at $40 and has been bouncing around above it ever since The financials provide a structural floor Where I was wrong on PayPal was that I estimated the floor to be higher. I did not think it would go below $50 outside of a market crash. Having said that, nobody could have predicted that they would come out and miss guidance (the CFO reaffirmed it just weeks prior) and then rug pull is with firing the CEO before a crap earnings The market environment was also hostile and has been since especially for fintech. Look at all other fintech names. They are in the gutter. So I think it is mainly perception. That’s the problem with X. It’s full of narratives. And the narrative pedalled by a group of particularly toxic accounts on here (some big ones) is that I am somehow one of the worst investors of all time because my thesis on $PYPL did not play out as I thought it would For what it’s worth. I still believe $PYPL is extremely cheap and could still outperform the market over the long term. I just didn’t want to stay in after they got rid of Alex Chriss in the way they did. Lost faith in the *** I encourage you to make your own mind up

    I've had 2 separate PayPal accounts because I moved to Europe and my account on my beautiful 3rd world country was limited with options, but I never had a problem with them, actually I've just gotten notifications about pp expanding the amount limit on my account due to good use

    @norabunoraibu Aye, and what's funny (from what's been happening like with Paypal), payment processors are going into and implementing these new types tech of currencies, we'd be able to take advantage of them, and for us what we've figured out is a way to do it without them having the ability to freeze or blacklist a users' main address to receive payments on (will be testing this out in the discord-alt we'll be releasing soon which is also a new experimental platform to fix the discord problem).

    How to avoid this issue!! 1. Do not ever disclose that you do nsfw or lewd art. Nsfw is against PayPal tos. Ask your client not to too. (Seems bad but we have no choice) 2. Do not deliver the files through paypal if it’s nsfw. 3. You do need some details on invoices. Make it as generic as possible. Eg. “full body art commission on xyz, to be delivered on xyz”. Keep your NSFW details away from PayPal!!

    @gothiclysweet PayPal is also just cracking down "Adult" stuff across the board - Even NSFW artists are getting kicked and can't take commissions because of it

    @eduardgorte_ @SirBadOpinions The problem isn't that artists don't want to accept crypto, the problem is that almost no client would be willing to pay with them. Things like PayPal only have power because it's the only thing most clients have to pay with.

    @tomosman $GITBANK ? Because of they also working on Github users for if any user has error and solve by other person and give bounty then need to go centralized or paypal.. so Gitbank is building wallet in github so the escrow will send automatically when task complete...

    I'm seeing a lot more talk about PayPal and it's cracking down on all NSFW on my feed. It reminds me how PayPal banned my *** because I am pornography. Mind you, not what I post, not anything involving sales. But donating money to support me the person was apparently pornography

    Crypto didn't start because someone wanted a faster PayPal. It started because DigiCash got shut down. One server, one company, one point of failure. Satoshi fixed that. Ethereum extended it. The entire value proposition is fault tolerance, attack resistance, and collusion resistance. Remove any of these and you don't have crypto. You have a database with extra steps. The EF published a mandate codifying CROPS: Censorship Resistance, Open Source, Privacy, Security. They weren't inventing something new. They were writing down what was always true. The backlash wasn't about Milady or anime art. It was about people wanting the EF to say "we're going to compete with Solana on speed and fund KOLs." Instead the EF said "we're going to protect the properties that make this technology worth building on, even if that means moving slower." Some people can't handle that. Because they entered crypto to get rich, not to get free. Here's what the "just be pragmatic" crowd never thinks about for more than five seconds: if Ethereum loses credible neutrality, the rest of the world walks away. If it's captured by the US, China doesn't use it. If it's captured by China, the US doesn't use it. No country builds critical financial infrastructure on a network another country can influence. The only product that works for everyone is the one nobody owns. That's not philosophy. That's the only path to a global settlement layer. And the argument that "nobody will use the most decentralized chain" is based on the assumption that the regulatory grey area lasts forever. It won't. The CLARITY Act literally creates favorable treatment for genuinely decentralized protocols. When regulation stops treating all crypto the same, the chains that actually have these properties get a structural advantage that centralized chains cannot replicate. You can't bolt on decentralization after the fact. CROPS is not an obstacle to Ethereum's success. It's the precondition for Ethereum's existence. Stop gaslighting Ethereum. 👇

The easier ones are the scams telling you you haven't paid your toll i reply to them with some very bad language
