  $PYPL The Half of PayPal the Market Was Pricing On July 15 Stripe and the investment firm Advent International offered about $53 billion for PayPal, $60.50 a share at a 28 percent premium, with PayPal's board due to meet on July 20 (CNBC). The market had spent two years pricing PayPal as a fading checkout brand. The bid is a sign it was valuing the wrong half of the company. The bearish case is about flow, the checkout button losing ground at the point of sale to Apple Pay, to Shopify, to a dozen others. That decline is real, and it is what the multiple reflects. What it leaves out is the stock of accounts sitting behind the button. PayPal holds more than 400 million funded consumer accounts, Venmo included, and a funded account is not just a logo, it is a stored balance with a linked funding source and a verified identity. This is what makes the bid make sense. The whole industry is moving toward agent commerce, where software does the buying, and an agent cannot spend from nothing. It needs a funded account to draw on, permission to spend it, and an identity behind it. Stripe owns the merchant side of payments and has very few consumer wallets of its own. PayPal is the largest pool of pre-funded consumer accounts outside the banks. A company that owns the merchant rails is not paying a premium and borrowing $50 billion for a checkout button, it is buying the thing it cannot build on its own, a base of accounts that are already funded and ready for an agent to spend from. A 28 percent premium on a company the market had written down as a runoff is the buyer saying, in effect, that the base of accounts is worth more than the flow everyone was tracking. The mispricing, as I read it, is that the market valued the half of PayPal that is shrinking and gave away the half that is scarce. This is a bid and not yet a deal, so the tells are close at hand. Whether the board engages after July 20 or holds out for more will say whether the base is worth what the bidder thinks. A rival suitor would be the market admitting the asset is rare. And the final terms, if there are any, will show who controls the combined accounts and rails, because that, rather than the app, is what an agent economy has to run through.

  The most humiliating chart in tech just became a private equity target. Retail is cheering a 28 percent premium on $PYPL like its a massive win. They are completely misreading who actually takes the prize here. Look at the slow bleed on the chart before this sudden jump. PayPal was valued at $360 billion back in the 2021 frenzy. Now Stripe and Advent are rolling up with $50 billion in bank financing to buy the entire float for $60.50 a share. The retail crowd is praying this sparks a bidding war. The truth is far funnier. Silicon Valley is buying its own garbage at a discount. A private upstart is swallowing a former giant to control a machine that processes $3.7 trillion in annual payment volume. If you held this all the way down, the market is finally putting you out of your misery. Youre getting forcefully cashed out near the lows.

  Every TCG Discord runs on the same broken ritual DM a stranger, scroll a "vouch" channel hoping their trade history isn't faked, then Venmo/PayPal them and pray. I run a TCG community (Pokémon/One Piece/Riftbound) this happens 20x a day for $5–$150 trades: pulls, splits, breaks. Building Sleeved to fix it. Not for whales moving graded slabs (Collector Crypt already owns that), this is for everyone else's raw card trades that PayPal fees and fake vouches don't serve. 🧵

  ▪ Stripe Casually Bids $53 BILLION for PayPal $PYPL ▪ The $360 Billion Giant Nobody Wanted In July 2021, PayPal peaked near 360 billion dollars. Then Apple Pay and Google Pay ate its growth. By Tuesday's close it was a 47 dollar stock, down roughly 85 percent from the top. ▪ Stripe's $60.50 Ambush ▪ An 8 Percent Gap Tells the Real Story ▪ The Spread Is a Probability

  they're going to come for a lot more of us and a lot of us don't even have real bank accounts anymore - just these technofash-owned-and-operated online moneyholders like paypal, cashapp and venmo - who already shut down Palestinian and solidarity accounts daily.

  Before the open, real quick. PayPal $PYPL popped 17% on a buyout report yesterday while the chips got dumped again, Micron $MU and SanDisk $SNDK down 8% plus. Two days straight of people ditching semis for deal news and cash flow. Does that keep going today, or do chips bounce? @tastyliveshow

  BREAKING: PayPal shares jump 17% following reports that Stripe and Advent International are preparing a $53B takeover offer. $PYPL This proposed $60.50 per share cash offer represents a 28% premium over where the stock was trading just before the news broke. The deal is backed by $50 billion in committed bank financing, with Stripe and private equity firm Advent aiming to split ownership of the payment giant 50/50 rather than breaking it up. Combining Stripe’s $1.9 trillion in annual payment volume with PayPal's $1.8 trillion would create an absolute behemoth, controlling roughly 3% of global GDP. For PayPal, this offer highlights a massive fall from grace since its pandemic-era peak in 2021, when its market value soared to $360 billion. Since then, intense competition from the likes of Apple Pay and Google Pay has squeezed PayPal's market cap down to a low of $36 billion. While PayPal’s new CEO Enrique Lores has been pushing internal restructuring and cost-cutting to spark a turnaround, analysts believe the board might hold out for a higher price—potentially up to $70 a share—before agreeing to a buyout.

  Stripe offering to buy Paypal is the craziest thing I've heard in a while. Apart from it being a startup trying to by a legacy tech, but one of the reason Stripe started was to fix an issue Paypal created.

  @Momomovestwicee @veleda_28 @TWICEUROPE Aah okay!! I am trying to pay directly in € with my creditcard (paypal isn't an option when paying in €), 'cause the items are cheaper then! But good to know that if this error doesn't get fixed and customer support doesn't respond, I should be able to order with paypal! 🤍
