Francisco Reynoso 🇩🇴 (@FranciscoRD9) reported@PayPal @AnthropicAI @claudeai One question: If PayPal makes a mistake, why should the customer have to suffer the consequences? The logical thing would be for the platform to automatically correct its errors, instead of limiting or denying the user’s right to seek a fair solution.

Grow☘️ With Joshh (@TrinityFXB) reported@omoalhajaabiola @RaenestApp I am not the type to talk down on other brands but PayPal set a $20 benchmark of African transactions, $20! That is equivalent to writing a continent off but @RaenestApp puts us back in and I am all for anything that benefits and puts Africa back on the global map. 1/2...

Rushen Samodya (@RushenSamodya) reportedWhy PayPal in Sri Lanka Actually Matters (And What it Means for You) 1/ The Old Problem Before today, Sri Lankan devs had three options: Use fake overseas addresses (illegal, risky) Keep money in foreign accounts (forex leakage, tax issues) Rely on shady remittance channels (high fees, no protection) We were essentially locked out of the global economy. Meanwhile, Indian and Filipino devs were cashing in directly.

Goran Stojcic (@GanSic966) reported@HedgeFundTips The reason I invested in PayPal was due to their entrenched position in Europe, predicated on the idea that Apple Pay’s threat is neutralized by Android’s regional dominance. This, I am afraid is no longer the case. Google Pay is rapidly scaling across Europe, presenting an equally formidable, native operating system threat. Consequently, PayPal’s core branded checkout business is on highly unstable footing. We tend to underestimate the non-linear velocity of consumer behavior. While the shift from writing checks to swiping credit cards lasted couple of decades, the current migration from cards to native digital wallets (smartphones, wearables, and biometric authentication) is occurring at an exponential pace. In an ecosystem dominated by hardware-level convenience, PayPal lacks a structural moat. This fundamental erosion makes a further multiple compression and market cap drop entirely possible. I see a lot of parallels to Charter Communications (which I've been buying this week and last): despite robust legacy fundamentals and an aggressive, long-term share buyback program, Charter’s stock is down 65% in twelve months (worse than PayPal's 38% decline), and 80% over five years (same as PayPal). Both are down for the same reason - a fear that their core product is facing irreversible terminal decline.

Mark Harper (@jpr1chardson) reportedA year ago basically two companies issued stablecoins. Circle and Tether. That was the market. Today 20 banks and tech giants are in line to issue their own through Anchorage. Western Union. PayPal. Fiserv. List goes on.

Shari 🌸 (@sharduncan5050) reported@CarolineDPham @moonpay I’m having lots of trouble with MoonPay! I have a balance that I’m trying to Withdraw. The app only gives me two options, my bank account or my PayPal. I’ve tried both, repeatedly, and MoonPay will not finish the transaction. So frustrating!

AmicuNoa🧜♀️🌊 Vtuber | Emote Comms OPEN (@AmicuNoa) reported@StreamlabsHelp @zachbussey Paypal is well known to lock accounts and balances. Ever since I was a kid i had paypal issues and I don't trust it. I don't feel safe, connecting paypal business to anything related to where I actually live. Are you guys willing to try and imitate SEPay? It was an amazing feature. Not to mention the sponsorships from stream elements. I went back to streamlabs today. And the sponsorship page didn't work.

Fintech Takes (@FintechTakes) reportedThe DOJ just settled a fair lending case against PayPal. There's one problem: no loans were ever made. PayPal's Economic Opportunity Fund, launched in 2020, directed capital to minority depository institutions, CDFIs, and minority-led VC funds. It issued grants to Black-owned small businesses. It funded nonprofit partners. None of it was lending. And yet the DOJ opened a fair lending investigation under ECOA, a law that governs credit discrimination. PayPal settled anyway. The terms aren't punitive - the company agreed to launch a small business initiative focused on veteran-owned businesses and those in farming, manufacturing, and technology. The original fund had already been wound down. Alex's read: PayPal probably made a calculated decision. The company has an ILC charter application pending with the FDIC, and staying in the administration's good graces has real business value. But the legal logic here is paper-thin, and the precedent it sets is worth paying attention to.

Hamilton (@Debt_Ledger) reportedClaude inside QuickBooks and PayPal is more interesting than another chatbot launch. The real leverage is the back office: invoicing, payroll, bookkeeping, compliance. Cut friction there and you cut delays, errors, and waste. That’s state capacity by software.
