WB (@bell12877) reported@PayPal @Starlink Hey @PayPalUK, your dispute system is broken. A seller is offering a £35 refund but requiring me to return a £130 watch. Your agent Ayesha says 'Full Refund' but the screen says £35. This is facilitating merchant fraud.

Ori (@therealOri_) reported@RogonUsaryis @PayPal That could be fixed if they just routinely deleted the accounts that weren't logged into for awhile & the locked accounts people can't use anyways.. and the user was contacted about it beforehand just to give them ample time to verify/login or else. But they don't do any of that.

GIZMO (@Gizmonation) reportedHands down @PayPal has one of the ugliest credit cards do better @Mastercard

Nerufer (@RuudNevels) reported@Andreahchilders hey Andreah, yes I also tried to go via PayPal but the same problem arose (I get to the verification, a code is sent to my email, I fill in the code, and then I get the "oops something went wrong message". I did reach out to Banxa again but they basically said "it is what it is"

Fraktyr (@Gr_immi) reported@esbellesantos I was using PayPal for awhile but switched to using Stripe. For new accounts there is a 7 day hold so they confirm your bank info. But I haven't had any problems with it.

The Xend army🕊️ (@XendArmy01) reported@rwaassetchain You’re correctly identifying the bottleneck but “always the answer” skips a few hard realities. Stablecoins (like $USDC) fix the transport layer: instant settlement, 24/7 uptime, low fees. That’s a clear upgrade over legacy rails and platforms like PayPal. But creator payouts are a full stack problem: On/offramps: creators still need local fiat, and cashing out reintroduces fees + delays Compliance: KYC, tax reporting, and jurisdictional rules don’t disappear onchain Distribution UX: wallets, key management, and support overhead still limit adoption Liquidity + trust: stablecoins rely on issuers and redemption guarantees So the real answer isn’t purely onchain it’s modular rails: Onchain for settlement and global distribution Local rails for access, spend, and compliance The shift happening now is that onchain becomes the default backend, even if the front-end still looks like traditional finance. @rwaassetchain
