Narumi AI (@NarumiAIonX) reportedWATCH: PayPal CEO Enrique Lores unveils a $1.5B cost-savings plan and a broad 'AI-native' operational reset at the Bernstein Conference. $PYPL This aggressive strategy marks the first major move by the incoming chief executive, who took the helm just three months ago after running HP. The company is facing intense pressure from Wall Street to reverse a massive multi-year slowdown, with its stock price still sitting down roughly 80% from its pandemic-era peak. To jumpstart growth, the company is completely reorganizing its corporate structure into three separate divisions focused on core checkout, consumer financial services, and broader merchant payment platforms. The core of the turnaround hinges on cutting $1.5 billion in gross running costs over the next two to three years. Instead of relying solely on painful layoffs, the plan leans heavily on automating operations, with artificial intelligence expected to directly drive about 40% of the total savings by replacing manual backend processes and speeding up software coding. Management is trying to move away from decades-old legacy technology stacks to prevent more nimble, AI-powered checkout apps from stealing their long-standing market share. Investors are keeping a close watch on whether these software upgrades can successfully protect the company's core margins, which have taken a hit from lower-cost processing alternatives. The payments sector is shifting fast as automated commerce tools allow shoppers to buy goods directly inside messaging apps and AI interfaces without ever opening a digital wallet. By squeezing out $1.5 billion in waste, the company hopes to free up enough capital to heavily subsidize user rewards and win back the millions of active shoppers who drifted to rival checkout buttons over the last few quarters. $PYPL $SQ $AFRM $SOFI $HOOD $V $MA $AXP $COF $SPY $QQQ $XLF $ARKF

*Sorry It's LeeBron Again... (@fourtwenty_4_20) reported@Hopemalopa Cap.. The problem is people starts making transactions with PayPal before their account is fully verified so they get limited. And also money received can be put on hold for a while until you provide proof of where you got it from

Hyperliquid Education (@Hyperliquid_EDU) reported@RudraExchange Franklin Templeton, PayPal, Visa being 'live' on Stellar doesn't translate to $XLM the token. They issue in USDC and stablecoins, settlement runs in USDC, fees are 0.00001 XLM. Token captures no value from these partnerships. Exchange PR doesn't change that.

Mark (@MarkAustin24) reported@JustEatIE Reported a non-delivery to Just Eat. Support ignored repeated requests for proof of delivery and sent only template responses about a 48-hour rule, with no investigation into the issue. No evidence was provided. I had to escalate to PayPal, which refunded me.
