  @__Con_ Sofi might become like PayPal. For years people talk about how undervalued it is but it keeps going down and has been a bad investment.

  @kingpindegen @TiltRips Hi @kingpindegen , I'm having an issue with withdrawals. I added my PayPal details, but the platform is only showing the option to connect a US bank through Coinflow. I'm from India, so I can't use a US bank account. Could you please let me know if PayPal withdrawals are supported for Indian users or if there's another withdrawal method available? Thank you!

  If you order Amazon and cancel an order before it ships they try to steal your money. Its happened to me twice. Both PayPal and Amazon delete the orders. I take snapshots of everything so when they try to do that it doesn't work. Amazon should be shut down. This **** is a scam site. I cant order any large items either especially if its from China they just steal it at customs. Shut the whole ******* thing down Im done fighting for me to get my money back. Thieves!

  @MissTeeandMoo I mean hanging around the 18 year olds that were unhoused and trying to make a quick buck off of them during hurricane season a few years ago and claim she didn't have any money to give them after raking in superchats/paypal money should tell you that. Pulling a stunt like that in the state of Florida. I understand Rosie is *relatively* new to Florida and she doesn't leave the house unless its something that can benefit her like getting a PO box for her amazon wishlist (continue the grift years later). But she should have known that there are resources, if she *really cared* about helping people. Like aound the time she was helping them, according to the timeline of that feederism website she was on, she was new to Florida to begin with. She would have been the last person I would ask for help from when she could have done so many other things like take them to Career Source to help them find actual resources, set them up with My Access Florida to help them get TANF/SNAP, take them to the schools that doubled as a shelter during the hurricanes. But instead? She gathered money under the pretense she was claiming she helped them, made the claim that she was going into 'red' and then blocked them and is still making excuses as to why she did what she did. It's disgusting. I've been in Florida for a majority of my adult life after moving down here from New York and honestly? I would have been a better lifeline for those youths because I know how to navigate all that stuff. If they didn't have their education, I would have even went as far as to get them into a free charter school that would have been open to them until they were 24 years old so they could graduate. Even with that they only had to physically attend a class a day and the rest could be online. I would have told them that there are certain farmer markets that are open on Saturday that they could get more bang for their SNAP while helping local famers in the process when some of the farmer markets will take a dollar of EBT and match that so they could double the amount to put towards their monthly food. If you're going to claim to HELP people, don't ******* half *** it just to see how you can attempt to groom someone's children just to make a quick buck off of them and then say "oh well I was going into red myself but at least I gave them a few nights at a motel." That's NOT HELPING. Especially when there are ministries available that help people who would happily keep them off the streets and not be used, especially to this day, as monetization on YouTube. She has this fake savior complex and I wish she would leave this Florida like she is planning on doing because she has contributed nothing to this state outside of scamming people who live here.

  @Airbnb i was fraudulently charged for a purchase via my PayPal on June 26th. Your reps keep saying its an authorized charge without giving me any disclosure or details of the purchase. Its getting really frustrating. This is a gross negligence of security! Resolve the issue!!

  If something major happens for me I won't turn it down. I promise I'll come back back to the city of San Francisco though. I did some work for a place called tactic and they're hiring at night so I sent him a quick application I saw I on indeed. They pay you that day with PayPal. I'm having lunch. A cool time at the AI Engineers World Fair.

  The payment security stuff Sony mentioned as the reason they are closing the PlayStation 3 and Vita stores is 100% a lie. They previously already solved it by removing your ability to use your card and payment info on the PS3 or PS Vita consoles and made it so you have to use funds that you can add to your account via the website or other consoles. I regularly update client's Stripe, PayPal, and other CC processing methods when things change (Only happens every few years but they don't all get updated at the same time.). It's never been a massive undertaking unless you designed it like absolute **** from the beginning. And even funnier is they could solve any additional security issues if they had just kept the browser-based version of the store up and only allow you to buy stuff from there. Makes it easier to update any security when you have a front end that's agnostic of the hardware it has to run on. TLDR: They just don't want it around and would rather use ratspeak that stupid people are literally buying into.

  The Biggest Banks On Earth Are Creating Their Own Digital Currencies. The future of money is being rewritten,and most people have no idea. Here is who is building their own digital currency: Bank of America. Goldman Sachs. Citi. Deutsche Bank. UBS. Barclays. TD Bank. Santander. All jointly exploring a digital currency pegged to G7 currencies on public blockchains. PayPal already launched PYUSD. Walmart and Amazon are reportedly exploring their own coins. Mastercard just bought a stablecoin startup for $1.8 billion. 20+ companies are in line to issue stablecoins through Anchorage Digital. Right now USDT and USDC control 94% of the stablecoin market — $260 billion combined. They built this space from nothing. But the banks coming for them manage TRILLIONS. Not billions. Trillions. So who wins? Tether and Circle have speed. First mover advantage. Crypto-native trust. But banks have regulation, infrastructure and the most powerful brand in finance — trust from your grandmother. Here is what this means for YOU: Sending money across borders? Seconds instead of days. Near zero fees instead of $45 wire charges. 24/7 settlement instead of waiting for Monday morning. Your bank account, your paycheck, your rent payment — all moving on blockchain rails within 3-5 years. You just won’t know it because it will feel exactly the same. The best technology is invisible. That is what is being built right now. The banks that laughed at crypto are now building it. The future of money is digital. solana:Es9vMFrzaCERmJfrF4H2FYD4KCoNkY11McCe8BenwNYB base:0x833589fcd6edb6e08f4c7c32d4f71b54bda02913

  @DemiurgeTsar Really depends on the rates. Paypal doesn't scale well for a real business. Stripe or something is better, but the same high rates. I can help if you're ready to move to something more robust. But it should be fine for now, if it's not broken don't fix it. The 0% really only works well online, or in business to business settings. Online b2c you're better off getting the lowest rates you can.

  @PorraDeene @TheCryptoSquire The issue isn't adoption friction—it's that most merchants prefer instant settlement over volatility hedging. Stablecoins solve this but then you're just using faster PayPal.

  Elon Musk on how PayPal got its first 100,000 customers in one month “I didn’t expect PayPal’s growth rate to be what it was, and that actually created major problems,” Elon explains. “We started PayPal on University Avenue [in Palo Alto], and after the first month or so of the website being active, we had 100,000 customers.” As Elon explains, the key to PayPal’s viral growth was it referral program: “We started off first by offering people $20 if they opened account and $20 if they referred anyone. Then we dropped it to $10, and then we dropped it to $5. As the network got bigger and bigger, the value of the network itself exceeded any sort of carrot that we could offer.” He continues: “And then we just did a bunch of things to decrease the friction. It’s like bacteria in a petri dish. What you want to do is try to have one customer generate two customers, or three customers ideally. And then you want that to happen really fast.” Elon estimates that PayPal spent $60-70 million to fuel this growth, before the company was acquired by eBay for $1.5 billion.

  “I made so many mistakes at the beginning of Tesla, almost every decision we made was wrong.” - Elon Musk At PayPal, whenever they had to choose between two equally appealing decisions, they just picked one and moved on instead of debating it. Most times they would choose the suboptimal version, but they moved on with speed. It is ok to make wrong decisions to start, but it is important to fix what you did wrong and adapt to reality.
