    @Uber_Support on 4/24 I tried to cash out to PayPal & it ran into issues & my balance disappeared. I was sent from a live chat to a “response in 6-12 hours”. The issue hasn’t been resolved and every reply is from a different person

    🚨 JUST IN: Former PayPal CEO David Marcus just unveiled a stablecoin banking product for businesses and AI agents. Stablecoin balances. Yield. Payments. Cards. All chain-native, all behind an API. This is Banking-as-a-Service but onchain. --- Banking-as-a-Service is getting rebuilt on stablecoin rails. The old stack - Middleware (e.g. Unit / Synctera) - Galileo - FBO accounts at a sponsor bank There's now a chain-native version. - Squads Grid does it on Solana. - Bridge built it for fintechs, payroll and non banks - BVNK ships it embedded. Lightspark now joins them, with distribution into 65 countries and a Bitcoin L2 underneath. --- I keep thinking about how the "account" itself is being unbundled. What used to be a sub-ledger entry at a partner bank becomes a programmable smart account that holds dollars, settles 24/7, keeps its own yield, issues cards, and accepts agent-scoped permissions. The bank charter turns into a feature you plug in for accessing other rails. --- The agent piece is marketing, but its also more than that. Lightspark is already inside Google's AP2 protocol. As agents want to become platforms in their own right, re-sell financial services to their customers, they'd want a BaaS like thing. Why not go for something that uses stablecoins? --- Marcus has THE most fascinating back story - Former CEO of PayPal, has moved money traditionally - Behind Libra at Meta a global bank account and "stablecoin" that regulators pushed back on. Now this is a global stablecoin bank account distributed through an API, post-GENIUS Act, sold to businesses and machines. Sometimes timing is everthing. Does this compliment or commoditize BaaS over time? I expect the answer becomes obvious within 18 months.

    @umarsaif Mr. Saif, people of KPK and Pakistan have already answered on 8th Feb. During your tenure, internet stayed down, freelancers suffered, X was banned, and PayPal promise was never fulfilled. Stop misleading people—the public knows the truth.@umarsaif

    @griffgreen "Paypal is shutting down people's accounts & stealing their money all the time." ...using the same power of confiscation that the security council has if you just want to be a better financial services provider than paypal, you can run a financial services company and comply with the applicable rules and regulations--you don't need a blockchain for that if you want to *guarantee* you will be a better financial services provider than paypal, there are also many interesting ways to do that and some of them might use blockchain but make no mistake--in the end, you are simply an intermediary. this is not "DeFi" and not a "DAO"

    @PayPal What makes you think it's ok to issue a refund to a consumer's disputed payment after the seller has provided PROOF of shipment & delivery of the order. You act like you're doing everyone a favor. The truth is this practice simply adds cost to businesses accepting paypal.

    @StarbrightHQ Thank you - I appreciate the offer, but I've never resold, don't have PayPal and would be too scared that they would get broken during shipping.

    @whymadoindis @TheJerzWay I don't like Zionist or whatsoever control. You just lied my problem is there. You said Paypal, Google Pay and Apple Pay works, I said no they are not, then you said they are under Zionist control? Are they under zionist control, but not Wise or Visa or MasterCard I guess? You are writing on Twitter, you are aware of it, right? Apple, Google, Microsoft... I am saying sending and getting money is problem, expacts doesn't like it and you are saying USD is dying. We are not talking the same thing. This is the map where Paypal is available.

    Dolores Capital (@dolores_capital) reported

    @FluentInQuality dude, i used to invest like this. you end up having your capital stuck in slow movers for years. i was stuck in paypal for years doing the same "oh they can buy back the entire company in 8 years...blah blah blah" why not look at stage 2 uptrend stocks? $mu $cohr $nvt $vrt $gev many many more. there's always new leaders carrying the market. if you look at buffett when he ran his private partnership, he was looking at microcaps and also things like GEICO which was a NEW TECHNOLOGY GROWTH company at the time. using new tech (phones) to sell insurance and growing nationally!

    Unbelievable. Now @coursera is closing my new support tickets without even replying, despite their own policy and 'Cora' confirming my refund eligibility earlier. I’ve officially opened a dispute with PayPal to get my €42 back. Fix your support system. #coursera

    Global payment platforms are not equally accessible to every business For many African founders, the issue is not demand or credibility It is structure Payment processors like Stripe, PayPal, and Square operate within specific systems

    If you're receiving money as a freelancer or agency owner or any service based businesses in India, you should be using @Infinityapp_in This is why I genuinely love it. Lets break down this $1400 of inbound payment. > If received via Paypal, I would have lost at least $120 (11300 inr) in fees and conversion. > If received via Wise, again $14-20 (1500 inr) in fees, and client needs to be on Wise. > If received via Dodopay, around $80 (7500 inr) goes to fees, also client needs to pay extra in VAT. ✅ Received via InfinityApp, can't believe that I paid only 659 inr in fees. Insane. Unreal.

    @moopmooll309y @UnhingedFans She's not even old enough to legally have a PayPal account (you have to be 18 at minimum). That alone already is putting her account at risk of having it closed down and the funds restricted because of how often she reiterates how young she is online in public.

    @asha_shar @XboxGamePassPC @Xbox To the Xbox team, In Egypt we face a major issue: only credit cards work, as local debit cards don't support USD payments. Please consider adding PayPal, Google Pay, or Apple Pay to improve accessibility for Egyptian players. Thanks
