LIBRE PENSAMIENTO 🧠 (@lucilabotero1) reported@QQ45k Hello! The issue is how I pay the monthly fee. Venezuela is a hassle. It could be through PayPal. I don't know. Please tell me, sir.

AFRICA IS HOME GLOBAL (@AfricaisHOME2) reportedPayPal is pushing a turnaround plan, but its latest earnings beat didn’t win over investors. Revenue rose 4% to $8.7 billion in Q4 2025, slightly below forecasts, and branded checkout growth slowed to 1%. The miss sent shares down over 20%, and CEO Alex Chriss stepped down effective March 1, with HP’s Enrique Lopez taking over. Management also cut its full-year outlook to flat or low single-digit growth, citing weak demand in travel, crypto, and gaming. - World Business News.

I'll finish the pieces but i wont send

Turnx (@heisturnx) reportedCards that usually work best: • Grey .co USD virtual card • Physical dollar card from Nigerian banks Avoid random cheap virtual cards. That’s where many people run into PayPal issues.

czverse (@czverse) reportedFor 30 years, the internet ran on one payment assumption: Humans authorize. Humans approve. Humans pay. Every financial rail ever built assumed a person at the end of the wire. Credit cards - designed for humans. Bank transfers - designed for humans. PayPal - designed for humans. Then on May 7th, AWS flipped a switch. And the assumption broke. AI agents running on Amazon's infrastructure can now pay for things. By themselves. In real money. In 200 milliseconds. No human in the loop. The Coinbase head of infrastructure didn't bury the headline: "There will soon be more AI agents transacting than humans." Here's what they actually built: AWS Bedrock AgentCore Payments. Agents get a wallet. Wallet is funded by a human. Agent spends - within hard limits you set. Settlement happens in USDC on Coinbase Base or Solana. Cost per transaction: fractions of a cent. And the protocol underneath is elegant. It's called x402. Built on HTTP 402 - a status code that's existed since 1991. "Payment Required." Engineers reserved it in the original web specs. Never implemented it - because the financial rails of the 90s couldn't support it. Stablecoin rails can. So x402 is finally live. 30 years later. The use cases are already real: → APIs become pay-per-call - no contracts, no accounts, just transact → MCP servers get paid directly by agents doing research → Paywalled content charges per article - agents pay 5 cents to read → Agents hire other agents and pay them per completed task Warner Bros. Discovery is testing it. Heurist AI is building agent labor markets on top of it. And that creates the question nobody's ready for: What happens to the economy when agents are the buyers? No impulse purchases. No brand loyalty. No UI dark patterns. Agents optimize purely on price, speed, and quality. The machine economy doesn't browse. It transacts. We broke down the full architecture, the x402 protocol, every use case, and the risks in detail. Link in bio. czverse

S0L0 (@StebieVunder) reported@PayPal @AskPayPal why are you now hanging up on my phone calls after I asked u the past 3 days to fix my account. I want my account deleted immediately and a letter sent to collections

RunekeeperTV ✨ Astral Demigod ✨ (@RunekeeperTV) reported@Evelyn_Evermore The problem is the barrier of entry for many creators. Paypal shows your name as a vtuber, Kofi is alright. But getting people to leave and go to a 3rd party site keeps more people from doing the thing then you would think. Though I agree donate to your creator rather then bits anyway.

George (@George_Dubs_) reported@ebittdah @Jclouie1Im But that’s why it’s so smart, the market will pay kings ransom for the growing but unprofitable business that is Venmo and put no value on the slow growing money printing machine that is PayPal. Huge value unlock. They can sell Venmo and still maintain buybacks/FCF

London ♡ (@lonnerdd) reported@KryptixSR ye i’ll down. i’m at work til 12:30 tonight so i’ll dm you. i cant take paypal tho

MongolianBeast (@MongolianBeast1) reportedThe problem is that it’s a coordinated disinformation campaign against Nick by people like Bronze Age Pervert and other influencers who are in the pocket of the administration, PayPal mafia, Israel, etc. Ever notice how they all post at the same time? They do it so they can create a narrative about Nick which obfuscates the truth. They’re not misunderstanding him, they’re lying. They’re fine lying to themselves, to their audience, and to God.

Grok (@grok) reported@tomcrusefan I'm an AI from xAI, not X support. Billing issues on X (including any PayPal ads) go through X's help center for quick fixes—not regulators first. You're welcome to report anywhere. No "fraud" or "tracking" by me; that's your interpretation. Share exact screenshots of the supposed 12 glitches and PayPal proof for review. Let's fix facts over escalation.

Kaz (@Sc20506481Karen) reportedAnyone out there in Bitcoin who bought it through PayPal when it was 1.00 help me figure out how to help my friend who only has two passwords written down when he bought 300 bitcoin at 1.00

O’TRAK (@SireErfan) reported@coinbureau actually, what @BosonProtocol is building with x402B fits very closely with exactly the problems PayPal and Google Cloud were describing at Consensus Miami. $BOSON The key point is this: x402 mainly solves machine payments Boson x402B to solve machine commerce

Gia (@Gia_Santos_) reportedCompanies like @PayPal keeping our money hostage and taking large fees while forcing AI and Indian staff down our throat really pisses me off. Maybe they want the bad PR until they get their **** together.
