  That year he was borrowing money for rent. The man who'd sold PayPal for $1.5 billion couldn't pay his own bills because he refused to let his companies die. When the NASA contract and Tesla funding landed weeks apart, he broke down in tears.

  Commissions are closed on VGen! My PayPal sadly got frozen. I’ve been seeing people go through this but didn’t think it would happen to me. Σ(-᷅_-᷄๑) Until the problem is resolved- COMMISSIONS ARE STILL OPEN but I will need to go through Cashapp or Venmo. DMs are open 🧸

  $PYPL — PayPal | ~$44 Launching PYUSD stablecoin aggressively. Partnered across major exchanges. Down 50%+ from highs. Analyst consensus PT $55. High target $100. The market is pricing PayPal as a dying fintech. It is quietly building the stablecoin infrastructure that could reprice it entirely. 26% upside to consensus. Contrarian entry.

  @AskPayPal Hello. My PayPal account is locked with a “unusual activity” security message and I cannot access customer support because login is restricted. Please help me restore access to my account.

  12/ At Consensus Miami last week, Google Cloud's head of Web3 strategy said something direct: "An agent cannot get a bank account. It's not hard, it just is impossible." What’s more, a @PayPal survey found that 95% of merchants already see AI agent traffic on their sites. But only 20% have the infrastructure to handle it. Meanwhile, @McKinsey estimates that AI agents could mediate up to $5 trillion in global commerce by 2030. So, the agent economy is fast arriving. And the rails it will run on are being decided right now. But one problem that is not yet solved cleanly is Custody. → How do agents touch user funds without custody?

  @AskPayPal Hello, my PayPal account supported Standard Transfers normally until recently. Less than one month ago I was able to withdraw using Standard Transfer without any issue. Now all my Saudi cards only show Instant Transfer, including previously confirmed cards. Plz fix it

  @Retailer1041 @TechEquityEng @amitisinvesting Paypal is profitable but stock is going down. Same logic could be applied to reddit (at least for the next two quarters). Fyi: I'm a shareholder in reddit but small position. Will add if it goes to 100 or at the end of the year due to new licensing deals

  @sleptonmypencil Yeah, this was a major bummer. I don't understand how PayPal is okay with just dismantling someone's account like that. It's like if you get paid for too many comms, they close you down, which is insane. I'm sorry this happened, bud.

  LMAO I’m sorry but people are slow. Why would someone keep $9 mil in a PayPal account!? You wouldn’t even keep that much in a standard bank account. And why would they need to borrow money from you if they had $9 mil 💀
