  small list off the top of my head. - paypal claims for ppl trying to scam (locks up money for 3-4 weeks) - people being lazy about shipping and waiting days / weeks without sending out the cards I bought - cards getting stuck in transit or looping in the USPS system for weeks with me having nothing to show for my money. (not the sellers fault necessarily) - sending $ and then getting refunded after days / weeks just due to whatever circumstance might come up - people sending empty packages & having to open paypal claims & fight to get my money back (& having my $ locked up for weeks) - people forgetting to add 1-2 cards within the package and then having to track down those cards & then get those shipped in a diff box at a later date. i’m sure there are a few others that i didn’t mention.

  @BigSeanHarris Except it doesn’t reduce data.. It’s exactly like the patriot act, that was the opposite of patriotic.. And you are falling for it because of all the bots run by LLM’s. Ask grok how many verified accounts support BiP110? And it’s starts to make sense why 0.3% of blocks on average have signaled. As it’s literally about 0.3% of the community that supports the BiP. Please stop letting bots that control what social consensus appears to be, trick you, again. You are falling right into the trap. As Bitcoin is losing usecases, monetary use cases like $2 trillion annually in remittances that are now done one USDT on TRON ffs. Pick your battles wisely, and don’t forget this is a war, not one battle. You fighting a battle against bitcoins own community, bring drama, division to a community that needs to come together and work on adoption and scaling, not censoring things on a p2p censorship resistant network. The ONLY way to stop spam and send a message to prevent it, is to add true formal governance to Bitcoin, aka A Government and Committees of technocrats that actively censor txn believed to be spam. Do you see why that is a bad idea? Do you see some of you fellow bip110’s suggesting this exact thing? Literally making Bitcoin centralized and under the control of one entity that can be summoned to court and forced to censor txn they don’t want to, as bitcoin is for everyone, murders, spammers, big blockers, rap1sts, pedos, dictators, etc.. they can all USE Bitcoin and no one can stop them, but you think a BIP can stop subjective spam? Please step back and think about this please, for your own sake, and for the sake of the community and Bitcoin adoption, success. As growth = adoption = more use = number go up = more mining, rinse and repeat. Yet we are instead focused on keeping growth as low as possible, and did you know that luke and all the bip110’ers that were around during the blocksize wars actively made fun of those spending their bitcoin on good? Literally made fun of for making monetary txns, Luke especially. Riger Ver made a video of a solution that allowed you to pay with bitcoin at any store, and they all made fun of that can joked that it was “PayPal 2.0” and that bitcoin was digital gold and stupid to spend, ie make monetary txns!! Have you asked why they all did a complete 180 on this issue? Because I have yet to see a single one explain themselves.

  On a serious note If 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. A drop in my air head bucket. I kept wondering why the band wasn't playing. I said come on I even yelled free bird at them. And I found out it was an open mic type thing. Goofasauras comes to Moscone West. On a serious note I did give somebody a peace sign behind my back this morning too! On a serious note Wh Smith has your scheduled for tomorrow I don't know the time yet. I'm working for tactic from 6:00 to 10:00 tomorrow evening. I could work today but I already put it up over my X I was going to be in The Castro. No disrespect.

  @Xeno_TG @BreezyNick87 You can make an account with a fake adrees and use prepaid cards to add funds to it (btw some cities add no tax on purchases). Thats how most of latinoamerica deal with the same issue when PSN started. Now you can use paypal, they removed its region lock.

  @DaveLuty @dshaynie The only issue I’ve run into is trying to add funds to the Japanese account… is the best way to go about it creating a Japanese PayPal and add funds to that? It won’t let me use my regular PayPal account

  📂 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.

  @greatvaultbeck I’d really like to see proof that you were scammed because you paid on this site. (Personally, I pay via PayPal and haven’t had any problems; when paying by card, as with any website, there’s a small chance you might get hacked – it’s happened with Amazon 👀😭) Go on your private message please 🙏 🤝

  @senortilt @TiltRips Hi @tiltedben, I'm having an issue with withdrawals. I added my PayPal details, but the platform is only showing the option to connect a US bank through Coinflow. I'm from India, so I can't use a US bank account. Could you please let me know if PayPal withdrawals are supported for Indian users or if there's another withdrawal method available? Thank you!
