  @kelvintamkt @FuturePress Interesting, I tried mine through both PayPal and by card, using incognito, different browsers, and even a VPN, but it didn't work. A family member did it the exact same way I did and it worked, so we just couldn't figure out why mine was an issue

  @thecryptobasic @KennedyPattiso1 People hated on me for throwing out the idea of Ripple acquiring PayPal. I’ve also tried to explain why they will, at some point, move down stream to servicing small business and retail… PayPal is obviously a long shot. But, would immediately 1) allow Ripple to reverse merge into public markets and 2) immediately claim massive e-commerce and retail market share.

Why don’t you like AI, it lets us make all of this easier? Do you know how ridiculous that sounds? This is progress. You’ll be left behind. Do you want to be left behind? Do you???

  @Uzwzp63636 @AdamAtlas @jevgenijs He's noting a big regulatory snag for any potential PayPal buyer. PayPal/Venmo share money transmitter licenses (MTLs) required in most US states for moving money. Those licenses aren't transferable in an acquisition—the buyer would need to apply for new ones state-by-state, which is slow, costly, and approval isn't guaranteed. It complicates any deal.

  @Poulpxlu as soon as a server or a confederation is involved it's a scam for box purists. you will never change that . I just notice It's been integrated with honest wallets like verse and big comps .. tether , PayPal now visa . it's stable for fast L2 bitcoin payment and that's all I need right now :)

  $PYPL This is ultimately why I sold PayPal It wasn’t the valuation it’s because I lost faith in the *** after they axed Alex Chriss Diego Scotti and Michelle Gill were probably the highest achieving execs during Alex’s leadership Diego did amazing things with Venmo and Michelle managed to inflect SMBs back to growth I do not think it’s coincidental that they have departed As time goes on it seems more and more likely PayPal is going to be broken up and sold for parts It will probably work out ok for shareholders but it’s a painful reminder of what PayPal could have been if it was managed correctly and not neglected to the point of deterioration under Schulman I don’t think it would have mattered who the CEO was who took over in 2023, it was destined to fail. Nobody knew the full extent of the damage under the hood I also suspect there is an entrenched corporate culture there which is obstructive towards innovation and meaningful change A real shame

  @TimHannan Why? If he can make the money, why do you care? Are you so jealous and insecure of other’s success you have to tear them down? Maybe if you had created PayPal, Space X and Tesla, just to name the big companies, maybe you could be as rich as him. But we all know you won’t so you whine about it and probably want to confiscate it. Pathetic.

  @MateuszKaczysk9 @Acyn France is developing alternatives for its civil service. The EU is already trying to build alternative to Visa/MasterCard and PayPal. With the USA cloud act - reliance on USA platforms is now seen as a security issue

  @IAMDorkSide Yeah she acted like I said the craziest things when I said something simple ("people in some areas don't have access to PayPal") and it left a bad taste to my mouth, really felt like she wrote the worst possible things down

  @OnceRedacted Paypal links. P.O. boxes. How many like to use dollar bills for these types of things? And how many of them would want to shut down the gravy train? You could practically make a living out of this sort of thing!

  @sionster @antibearthesis I’ve been in and out of PayPal, thankfully for profits. Many people seem to agree that a lower price would make it good value based on the P/E. Earnings have plummeted which will be an issue soon resolved, you’re highly unlikely to see a brand like Nike trade at 15 PE.

  @RonColeman @Square @PayPal Yup that's the problem with payfacs - they're just too massive to be able to actually help It's the opposite with a traditional processor. You own your account... Call us, text, whatsapp, email... Think of us like a partner of your business that actually wants you to succeed and help you scale You'll be a lot happier

  I was also really mad about the exposure of my full name and personal information on the doc and I would kindly appreciate it if you took some down like the paypal recipts or at least censor the name better (because it's horribly censored I must say)
