Kayrab Thee Rabizm (@DreadLock_Gamer) reported@FedericoBa71889 @MarcoFoster_ @KyleKulinski So he didn't create it, he funded it with generational wealth earned from his parents who are in mining. But even then: Outside of America PayPal was never that popular. Tesla makes terrible vehicles and electric vehicles are worse for the environment currently.

G (@NewMusic) reported@Brownmoose Nope it can easily turn into PayPal or Adobe. If I had to buy anything that’s been beaten down it’ll be Microsoft.

NoBSFounder (@TheNobsFounder) reported📂 NoBSFounder Case Files #025 The Feature PayPal Refused to Build In the early 2000s, PayPal had millions of users sending and receiving money online. As the company grew, customers requested more features. Loans. Investments. Insurance. Budgeting tools. Many fintech companies eventually expanded into all of them. The Decision PayPal chose a different path. It spent years focusing on one thing: Making online payments trusted, fast, and widely accepted. Instead of becoming a financial supermarket overnight, it doubled down on building trust with merchants, consumers, and developers. What Happened? That focus helped PayPal become the default online payment option for millions of businesses worldwide. By the end of 2024, PayPal had 434 million active accounts and processed $1.68 trillion in total payment volume. 🧠 NoBSFounder Lesson Every feature has an opportunity cost. When you say "yes" to one feature, you're saying "no" to improving something else. Great founders don't win because they build everything. They win because they're disciplined about what they leave out. Sources: PayPal Annual Report 2024, PayPal Investor Relations, PayPal SEC Filings.

raptor.trade (@raptor_trade) reportedEveryone said @solana's data infrastructure was solved. Our co-founder, Dominique spent 15 years in databases and knew it wasn't. Birdeye and Codex proved the market existed. They built a great product. But here's what happens to every successful company: as they grow, they move further away from the builders actually using the data. Feedback loops slow down. Edge cases get ignored. Power users emerge, who don't fit the original product. The pricing model stops making sense. The latency stops being good enough. This is where raptor[dot]trade found our opening. Databases have been used the same way for 40+ years. ingest → recalculate → serve stale data. repeat. nobody challenged it because the pain wasn't visible enough, until a few seconds of latency (post-compute) can catastrophic for anyone running serious strategies. So we built a new storage engine from scratch. incremental deltas only. No recalculation. ACID guarantees. 600K transactions per second. P98 latency of 6ms. the result: 99.7% lower cost-to-serve. one URL swap to switch from Birdeye, and we will work with @getblockio and @Shyft_to as our first partners to launch this. PayPal led to Stripe. Adobe led to Figma. Birdeye and Codex led to raptor[dot]trade. The first generation proves the market. The second reimagines the architecture for the power users the first generation left behind. That's where we aspire to be🔥

HazeFi (@HazeFund) reported@FBIDirectorKash The biggest problems are the banks fraud protection. Countless times have I seen Bank of America and PayPal allow for these transactions with a victim profile of 60 yrs+

Scott Ace Romani (@AceCronce94019) reportedIf something major happens for me I won't turn it down. I promise I'll come back back to the city of San Francisco though. I did some work for a place called tactic and they're hiring at night so I sent him a quick application I saw I on indeed. They pay you that day with PayPal. I'm having lunch. A cool time at the AI Engineers World Fair.
