  @cb_doge $180m after paypal and he still had to borrow for rent after dumping it all back in. most people cash out at 10% of that and call it a win. the difference wasn’t just the money it was treating the whole stack like seed capital for problems nobody else wanted to touch. space, evs, solar all looked like charity cases in ‘02-‘08. that level of skin in the game is why the upside compounded instead of just sitting in a brokerage account collecting dust

  The problem with Chantal is her pout sessions R only as long as the next Burger King delivery or Salah saying something nice 2 her! I’m sure her pouting garnered some deposits into her PayPal & some *** pats but narcissistic sociopaths are never really sad because they have no emotions! #foodiebeauty

  @grok The PayPal founders solved fraud detection for human payments 25 years ago and it built an empire. Who is solving the authorization problem for AI agent payments, and why is everyone building rails but nobody building the authority layer?

  Excellent news. The problem is that the WEF has already planned for this. Their new "central bank" is actually PayPal, using billions of a digital currency supplied by Ethereum. And because it's an international business, there doesn't have to be a nation-by-nation push for CBDC when the "central bank" is actually a payment provider that exists in spite of government policies, forcing them to conform to their rules. If Visa and Mastercard follow and adopt this model, then we're screwed no matter what. If we want to shut the book on the CBDC concept once and for all, backing decentralized cryptocurrencies is what we need to do.

  @surrealsoftlife @Billiheadboy @Hybrid_Ola The truth is that the platforms that have restricted us have means to restrict scammers. If scamming was the issue, why is Paypal back now? They left when scamming wasn't that huge a problem and have returned now a large number of boys are yahoo boys. SMH

  Let’s clear up a common misconception. Doctors are not getting paid every time they prescribe a medication. There is no secret PayPal from Big Pharma. Per prescription kickbacks are illegal. Now, do financial relationships between physicians and industry exist? Yes. But they are generally tied to services rendered or other transfers of value, not prescriptions. Examples include: • Conducting research • Consulting • Speaking or education • Travel related to legitimate professional activities • Meals provided during educational presentations Many of these relationships are publicly reported and searchable through the Open Payments database. That is very different from: “Your doctor prescribed a medication, therefore they got paid.” That is not how this works. And here’s where I think people should apply the same skepticism consistently. If a wellness influencer is selling supplements, detoxes, coaching, testing, memberships, affiliate products, or courses, ask: • How much money do they make from this recommendation? • What happens to their income if you follow their advice? • Are they profiting from keeping you worried about a problem? • Are they selling a solution to a fear they created? • Are they discussing risks, limitations, and uncertainty or only benefits? Because here’s the interesting part: You can look up many physician industry payments in a public database. There is no public website where you can search how much a wellness influencer made from a supplement deal, affiliate link, brand partnership, detox program, or coaching package. Financial incentives deserve scrutiny. All of them. Not just the ones we already disagree with. Skepticism is healthy. Selective skepticism is not.

  as an artist taking commissions, when someone asks for a refund, is it better to issue it through paypal or send the money back separately?

  @Jbn3ex PayPal feels like it still wins from habit more than product experience. Crypto payments make the most sense in moments like this when the old rails are slow, random, or just refuse to work.

  @3G2point0 @CardPurchaser @eBay 1. eBay Money Back Guarantee might still help Even if you’re past the standard 30-day window from the estimated delivery date, open a “Item Not Received” request in your Purchases right away. Go to the order, hit “More actions,” and report it didn’t arrive. If the seller keeps dodging, ask eBay to step in after a few business days. They often side with buyers on non-delivery, especially with a paper trail of the seller admitting they never mailed it and promising refunds.  2. Payment method is your backup • PayPal? You usually have up to 180 days from payment for a dispute/claim. Log in and open one for “Item Not Received.” • Credit/Debit Card? Contact your bank or card issuer ASAP for a chargeback. Explain the situation with screenshots of messages, promises, and lack of delivery. Many issuers are buyer-friendly here.  3. Other steps to take now • Document everything: Save all chat messages, the original listing, tracking (if any), and dates. • Message the seller one more polite-but-firm time: “Hey, still no card or refund. Please issue it today or I’ll have to escalate with eBay/PayPal/bank.” • Check the seller’s feedback and report them if they’re sketchy. In most cases like this, buyers do get their money back one way or another – eBay hates scammy sellers too. If the amount is small, it might not be worth huge stress, but don’t let them get away with it.
