  @PeterDiamandis Very few people know that Elon had funded SpaceX largely with his own money from the PayPal sale. He invested about 100 million dollars of personal fortune into the company. After three Falcon 1 failures cash was nearly gone. The team assembled one last rocket from leftover parts. That fourth flight on September 28, 2008 had to succeed or SpaceX would have shut down.

  Most people never see the inversion coming. They see the crash. The coup. The empty bank account. The factory that will not ship. Then they analogize: more staff, more robots, more of last year’s stack. Innovators do the opposite. They stay in the problem until the cost curve breaks. PayPal ousted Musk in 2000 for pushing a rebrand and a Unix-to-Windows NT migration. He did not wage a public war. He stayed a shareholder. eBay paid $1.5 billion in 2002. His ~11.7% stake — about $180 million — funded SpaceX and Tesla. By late 2008 both companies were days from death. Three Falcon 1 failures. Tesla about to miss payroll. One last rocket. Flight 4 worked on September 28. NASA signed $1.6 billion in December. He put his remaining cash into a $20 million Tesla bridge that closed Christmas Eve. Analogical thinking said “stop.” Physics said “one more launch.” Reusable first stages. Manual labor where the robots jammed. 5,000 Model 3s a week after he ripped out the over-automated line and slept on the floor. 75% of Twitter’s headcount gone so the cost of running the network inverted. That is not grit as a slogan. That is inverting labor, capital, and infrastructure until unit economics work. Follow people who have innovated at least once. Not the ones narrating the next analog. I built a platform to help average people think like that before you commit the capital. More on that soon. This is 100% a real interview LOL

  @Mokona_VT I got a notification from PayPal that they were delivered I didn't even know they were shipped at all. But now I have a problem with mine watching me sleep after eating on my Gumbies just normal gumbies.

  If someone hacks your Gmail, they don't need your passwords. They can reset everything. Bank. Instagram. Apple ID. Crypto. PayPal. Password manager. Your Gmail isn't email. It's the master key to your entire life. Here's how to lock it down in 10 minutes: 🧵

  Chaos🔞Comms Open (@ChaosReverb) reported 21 minutes ago

  @Aerea_caeles No, actually I don't have that message, but I know who it is because of the comms. The biggest problem that theme from the PayPal and socialmedia theft (which I never got back my PayPal, because according to PayPal I am not me) is that person blocked many people on my social media and deleted entire chats, in addition to changing the passwords and emails. So I didn't even get the full conversations and when I recovered my accounts, I could never contact them again on Twitter because I never found them to explain what happened, and they never responded to me on Instagram either. Obviously, I contacted as many people as I could.

  So you're saying this dude got 50 mil in venture capitalistism funds, and says we can't own money, the companies like cash app venmo and paypal in my point of view are scrubbing data to make customers look like they lost nothing... thats a breach of trust and is punishable and those in decision positions will be held liable. I don't want the see Xmoney go down the same path.!!

  @linuxuser1996 And if you can't live without it that Paypal isn't able anymore to get money out of you ,you still can use it as a PWA without problems. The ppl who want everything, cloud, KI auto-features, face recognition etc. , despite GOS handling most should maybe have a stock as 2. phone

  @PayPal the new app is ‘clean’ but dumb. Wtf do I have to scroll the top row to see the balance of each account? They are not visible at all glance anymore. wtf? Those cells do not need to be that big. Fix it.

  Claude just paid for itself today... Found a bug in my store. A "30% off your first year" code was taking 30% off every year, forever. Claude found 2 other codes had the same problem. Gave Claude read access to my WP install over SSH plus temporary Stripe and PayPal keys. It found all affected subscriptions across both processors, cross-checked what the gateways were actually billing against what my database thought, and fixed each one. $1,782/year recovered. About 30 minutes once I knew something was wrong. Doing that by hand across two payment processors would have eaten my week.

  Look at the timeline and something clicks. May 2025, Coinbase drops x402 so agents can pay per request. September 2025, Google launches AP2 with over 60 partners including Mastercard and PayPal. January 2026, ERC-8004 hits Ethereum mainnet, almost 39,000 agents register in 90 days. May 2026, @Concordium’s Agent Registry goes live. June 2026, Proof introduces x401 to handle identity proof. That's five major pieces of agent infrastructure landing across just over a year, and the gaps between them keep shrinking. Payment, identity proof, runtime management, persistent registry, verified human anchor, each one built by a different team without waiting for the others to finish first. Nobody planned one unified system. It's assembling itself in public, piece by piece, weeks apart instead of years apart. That pace alone tells you something about how seriously the industry is taking this problem right now.

  In our portfolio, PayPal fell 12.7% on Friday to $53.66 after Advent and Stripe walked away. The board had rejected their $60.50 a share as too low. The shares are now 11.3% below the offer it turned down. Generac fell 6.8%.

  @_ChokoMami In my case, I didn't even get to do comms, people barely so my stuff, and when I finally started to get more, I had to shut down the whole thing because PayPal doesn't work in my country anymore, I can never get money from the outside anymore.
