  Hello, I am locked out of my account. I forgot my password, and I no longer have access to the phone number linked to the account to receive the security code. Please help me reset my login details. @AskPayPal

  @LooongJooohnson @PayPal Isn't this a solution for those who want to travel to China but are struggling with payment issues? If that's your thinking, can I say that the US started using WeChat to curry favor with China?

  The more you watch Elon, the more obvious it becomes how much one person can shift the trajectory of humanity He is not playing the same game as everyone else Most people try to optimize for “How will this look?” Elon keeps returning to these questions • Is it true? • Does it violate the laws of physics? • Does it move humanity forward? That mindset explains everything That’s why he bought 𝕏 and turned it into the platform where truth shines brightest That’s why he kept building rockets even after the world called the explosions failures That’s why Tesla and SpaceX pushed manufacturing deeper into America instead of treating production as someone else’s problem That’s why he’s building Grok to relentlessly pursue truth That’s why Starship exists: not to make a slightly better rocket, but to make humanity multiplanetary.....just think about the scale People think Elon’s secret is money If money were the goal the story could have ended when PayPal sold to eBay. He was already enormously wealthy Instead he put everything back into problems that looked impossible and came close to losing it all multiple times while solving some of humanity’s hardest challenges That is the part most people still underestimate Without Elon pushing through years of brutal hard work and building what others called impossible none of what you see today would exist He is not optimizing for the next quarter His goal has always been to move humanity forward

  Epicentral founder Tony on the roadmap to mainnet, and what has to happen first "I anticipate we'll go live on mainnet this year for sure. I couldn't tell you a specific time frame, but more than a couple of months out from now" "We need legal clarity and we need proper audits, and we can't do that unless we have money. That's the ultimate truth. We can't have this exist on Solana until we have those checks, because we're building a non custodial platform. We want to make sure all the audits are in check, the program is working fine, there's no back door" "On legal clarity, we're already seeing it with the CFTC and the SEC and the crypto roundtables they host, their leniency and open mindedness to innovative financial technology. If I had the opportunity to sit down with them today I'd say, how do we do this with your support, because it needs to exist" "We're already seeing Visa, PayPal and Western Union use Solana's architecture to settle payments. The same thing is going to happen with derivatives. On devnet we already have 120 users as of today, 2 million in options volume across 500 different trades. It's private access right now, but it'll go public beta within the next month or so" FT @TheLazySol @epicentral_ @8bitpenis

  @RobHoffman_ @itsalexvacca Find out before you get involved in an advisor scheme 1. They "forget" to pay or they're slow to pay, or want to use some BS like PayPal. It's like pulling teeth. 2. Very often they're fishing into your business for info that's worth more than the payment.

  @PayPal @AskPayPal #paypal You waited until I started making more than like, twenty dollars at a time, until I received my FIRST larger commission amount, to randomly ban my account. That is incredibly predatory. 😒 I have given you every single piece of information that you’ve asked me for. I’ve given you proof of commission requests/work, my LLC/business license, my ID, my bank statements, everything, and you’ve been flagrantly ignoring me since then. I’ve reached out for an appeal and had to learn from a chat room representative that you’ve denied it. You’ve took money that I need for groceries and bills and placed it on a SIX MONTH hold over your assumption that, because I sell digital products, I’m scamming someone??? Fix the AI that bans the accounts and make this place better for independent artists please. I draw for people! I make money from that! It may not be a lot to you, but this money gives me a week of groceries to feed my entire family. At least give me the funds I deserve, for the work I’ve done.

  Peter Thiel is worth over $20 billion and he tells students that competition is for losers. He earned the right to say it. In 2004 he wrote a $500,000 check to a 19-year-old for 10.2% of Facebook - the first outside money that company ever took. He sold most of it for over a billion. Before that he cofounded PayPal, before that he was a failed Supreme Court clerkship candidate who quit corporate law after seven months. His argument in this lecture is one line long. All happy companies are different because each earns a monopoly by solving a unique problem. All failed companies are the same - they failed to escape competition. Google makes about 30% margins. Airlines fight each other into the ground. Perfect competition is a synonym for zero profit. He wants you to build something nobody can copy.

  Breaking down TPV for $PYPL is an absolute headache. It looks like management is going to a lot of extent to bury the TPV for Paypal branded checkout in their filings. Absolutely not needed but I guess they are trying real hard to bury a declining business.

  .@Rabois says "99% of everything that matters" for a company is the CEO.⁣ ⁣ "If you have the right CEO, things that people believe to be impossible are very possible and sometimes probable."⁣ ⁣ "If you have the wrong CEO—almost nothing else matters."⁣ ⁣ "@vkhosla taught me this lesson in a pithy way, which is, 'The team you build is the company you build.'" "It's really easy to get distracted with everything else, like the product, the market, technology, but ultimately it comes down to the people." ⁣ "If you can marshal a critical density of talent—you have a shot at winning. That's what we did at PayPal. We had an unusual density of talent, were able to sustain that density of talent—and we were able to accomplish things that other people wouldn't have been able to."

  Hello everyone just wanna send out a warning to NOT buy any tickets from @Camerella424 !! She’s a scammer and sent me a fake ticket 🫠🫠 I was stupid and fell for her kindness. Her PayPal account was not working and Venmo also flagged the transaction as scam, so what did I do? I used Apple Pay… which doesn’t cover anyone so I’m currently out $450. Everything seemed legit, especially with proof, but turns out I was wrong. Please don’t give me crap for this, I already feel stupid. Just wanted to warn people.

  Pasco Sheriff (@PascoSheriff) reported 50 minutes ago

  Pasco Sheriff’s Office is aware of several warrant scams. The scammer claims to be a Pasco Sheriff’s Office member or other local government employee informing the potential victim that they have a warrant and have to pay a fee. These payments are made through gift cards, PayPal, Bitcoin, Zelle, and other similar accounts. The scammer will provide PSO’s closed Grove location to appear authentic and spoof a number associated with PSO, such as our general information line. PSO will never contact individuals for any form of payment to resolve issues, criminal or otherwise. PSO stresses that these messages are not legitimate.
