  I bet he wishes he didn’t have to sell the ones he did. However I think he did that on purpose to drive the price down to buy more. Based on math the supply should be just about gobbled up. With what you can do with bitcoin it is clearly a utility and not going away. Who in there right mind would sell with all the major brokers now selling bitcoin ??? Charles Schwab, Wells Fargo, Venmo, PayPal Morgan Stanley it’s only a matter of time keep buying and stacking

  @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.

  @JayJayasuriya Permanent shutdown with zero explanation is such a hard place to be, no reason means no way to even fix whatever triggered it. Hope @AskPayPal actually gives you something concrete soon.

  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: 🧵

  @linuxuser1996 Eww. @PayPal is disgusting. I would consider it a feature of graphene OS to have it crashed everytime it opens. Plus, @GrapheneOS is busy doing better things. I hope they won't fix this.

  @linuxuser1996 @flexfree27 Why its not the same? Before I deleted my account on this datacollecting App I just used browser without problems. The difference is browser is more private and more anonymity. Paypal is ****, they refused me giving a (full) data copy on DSGVO standards. Everyone should delete

  @FatherAltman Hi Father, Paypal throws an error saying your webmaster needs do/fix something. I used CC instead, but normally always use Paypal for online purchases. Looking forward to the book!

  GrapheneOS (@GrapheneOS) reported 13 minutes ago

  @TechX1320 @linuxuser1996 PayPal works on GrapheneOS with the per-app compatibility mode. It recently started requiring disabling secure spawning but works fine with the other defaults. It's a bug in PayPal's anti-tampering code and they'll likely fix it soon. It's unrelated to it not working elsewhere.

  I was 333rd in the queue. Got kicked out. Went back in at 22900, waited till it down to let me back in. Put the wrong code in. Couldn't claim anywhere near my normal seats and ended up in the Riverbank, then it wouldn't submit payment and I had to switch to Paypal. FFS

  @Xoom Hi, I need help with a card verification issue. PayPal has confirmed my Mastercard was successfully updated and is valid, but Xoom still says it can’t verify the card. Could you please help? Thank you!

  PayPal Slumps After Buyout Talks Collapse: What Just Happened & Why It Matters PayPal just lost its lifeline — and the stock got obliterated. Stripe and Advent International walked away from a $53 billion buyout. The stock crashed 12-17% in a single session, from $62 to $52. JPMorgan and Morgan Stanley had committed the money. Now it's dead. What Actually Happened In July, Stripe and Advent offered $60.50 per share — a 28% premium. PayPal's board wanted $70. The deal died. Talks revived in mid-August. Then on August 27, Bloomberg dropped the bomb: collapsed for good. The stock went from $62 to $50.98 in pre-market. A $10 billion wipeout before breakfast. Why They Walked Away - Price gap: PayPal wanted $70, buyers offered $60.50. Too far apart. - Regulatory risk: A combined Stripe-PayPal would process $3.7 trillion annually. The FTC and EU would force divestitures of Braintree or Venmo. Why the Market Crushed the Stock PayPal's entire rally this quarter was built on deal hope. The stock was up 40%+ since June. Not because earnings were great — because investors thought Stripe would rescue them. Now? The rescue is gone. And PayPal has to face ugly reality: - Revenue growing just 4% - Active accounts flat at 439 million - The "PayPal button" moat eroding as Apple Pay and Google Pay take over The stock fell back to pre-rumor levels. All the deal premium? Evaporated. What PayPal Actually Is Today - Market cap: ~$52 billion (was $360 billion in 2021) - Revenue: $33.2 billion, growing 4% - Free cash flow: $6.4 billion - Stock: From $300+ in 2021 to $52 today This is a company that prints cash but can't grow. It processes nearly $2 trillion in payments but trades at 8-10x earnings. The market sees terminal decline. The Fintech Valuation Warning Stripe is worth $159 billion private. PayPal is $52 billion public. Yet PayPal processes similar volume and generates $6 billion in free cash flow. The difference? Stripe is growing. PayPal is not. Investors pay 50x revenue for growth. They pay 8x earnings for stagnation. PayPal is the latter. If the original fintech giant trades like a utility, what does that mean for every other fintech unicorn? What Investors Should Watch 1. Don't chase M&A rumors — PayPal rallied 40% on deal hope, gave it all back in a day. 2. Fintech ETFs are risky — ARKF, FINX hold PayPal. When the bellwether collapses, the whole basket suffers. 3. Indian fintech fundraising gets harder — Paytm, PhonePe, Razorpay watch this closely. If PayPal trades at 8x earnings, why should Indian fintechs trade at 30x? Bottom Line PayPal went from "takeover target" to "turnaround story" overnight. The $53 billion bid proved it has value. The collapse proved that value isn't enough. For 20 years, PayPal was the king of online payments. Today, it's a $52 billion company fighting for relevance. When your best hope is getting acquired and even that fails, you have a problem. The fintech graveyard is full of companies that were once "too big to fail." PayPal isn't there yet. But it's walking in that direction. Is PayPal a value trap at $52, or a genuine bargain?

  @solari_the They say cash is king, and it does grant you more freedom than a credit card or a PayPal account. Trouble is . . . products are not always available locally to buy with cash . . and online purchasing betrays your privacy.

  @Realnaz_ @JKeagz enterprise pivot to v3 and epaa membership alongside mastercard and paypal happened 24 days ago. that is real partnership traction and a product direction change toward bigger customers. but price is down 25% over 7 days and 19% over 30 days on 15m mcap. developments are not translating to buying pressure yet.

  @AskPayPal I cannot log in to my account. It is asking me to reset the password. I'm traveling, so I can't text, but I can email, and I never get the email. I tried the security question, and I get "There is a problem, try later." I cannot even contact you!!!
