  They're being paid through PayPal, so that 2.5 million probably went down to about $800,000 afterwards.

  @PayPal has now extended its PYUSD stable coin for usage in Malawi. What does this mean for the average Malawian or business? a thread/text/whatever well, this means a good step in the right direction but still practically nothing substantial for the average Malawian. Why you ask? 1. Mostly because with the forex situation in Malawi, the only way yo access/deposit money into paypal is through the parallel market which is expensive in itself without considering the huge fees that come with PayPal services. So basically for you to buy PYUSD, you still have to deposit money into your paypal account which requires your bank card to have a USD allocation, and we know most of us dont have the connections. BUT!, On the bright side, being a stable coin this means that if you are able to get your hands on the PYUSD you can transfer it to another paypal or venmo account globally with no fees and instantly. But charges are there for any conversion or withdraw from their stable coin “PYUSD” to any other crypto coin on the blockchain. This is Crypto 101, you are better off just using any-other crypto coin than this BS really. 2. Paypal runs custodial wallets. what this means is that; as you own an account with them, you are subject to their scrutiny in terms of identification, proving source of funds and explaining any “shady” transactions in your account. They will literally scrutinize every transaction that comes and goes in and out of your account. This is where being a third world citizen of a country like malawi starts to work against you. Because we are flagged as high risk areas when it comes to fraud and money laundering, and this is why you always hear stores from people talking about having their money frozen by paypal without proper explanations. You can literally avoid this by just using another other crypto services out there, the scrutiny is there but not as much. 3. This is not a new service or breakthrough as Paypal is putting out to be, we already have access to better stable crypto coins that can be accessed through more friendlier services such as binance,bitget, trust wallet, etc you name it. But!, Am not saying there are no problems there, but you will have a less of a hustle using those platforms. I for one, have been using binance for years now, and have never gotten my money frozen, you can literally send and receive money to/from any user on Binance across the globe with zero charges and instantly. If you have heard of people getting rich off crypto pakatipa, this is where the loophole was exploited but thats a story for another day. I can keep going, but these are the main 3 reasons why @PayPal introducing its PYUSD in Malawian changes anything for you as an average Malawian. Rock on!

  @AskPayPal I need urgent assistance. A business payout to my account was blocked on your end with API error code 9302 (RISK_DECLINE). My account is active, so I need a specialist to check for any internal security flags or receiving limits. DM me so I can share details.

  @Maxx6a Yes, we ship internationally. DHL is our shipping partner, so delivery is fast and reliable worldwide. The main thing to be aware of is that your country may charge customs duties or import fees when the package arrives. These fees are determined by your local customs authority and are the responsibility of the recipient. Other than that, there should be no issues. We offer secure payment through both credit cards and PayPal, making it easy to place orders from anywhere in the world

  The problem? Traditional payment processors like Stripe and PayPal instantly ban these websites. If you try to buy experimental muscle-building peptides or unapproved skin-bronzing chemicals with a Visa card, the transaction gets blocked. Enter Crypto.

  If getting paid means begging Stripe, Lemon, and PayPal in the same week, you do not have a payments stack. You have a permission problem. And if the “no-code” path breaks the moment you need webhooks, it’s not no-code. It’s no-control.

  Copy of message to Stripe in US about closing an old account: That is the problem, the Oxyd Fianancial Corporation is registered, but you do decline the company, so CLOSE the account and give me my funds on that account, I use PayPal and trash the stripe system.

  How @GoKiteAI makes agent payments cheaper than $0.01 and why Stripe and PayPal can't keep up The thing is, an AI agent pays for APIs, data, or compute every second, meaning every action is a micropayment worth just a few cents. Stripe/PayPal charge 2.9% + $0.30 per transaction. Example: a $0.46 payment → a $0.31 fee. That's 67% eaten up by fees alone! Over a day of agent activity, fees destroy the entire budget. Kite solves this differently: Runs on its own blockchain (Avalanche L1). Uses payment channels: you open one once, and the agent can make thousands of payments almost for free. Real cost - $0.000001 (0.0001 cents) per payment Speed: under 0.1 seconds. Stablecoins (USDC, etc.), with no volatility. @KiteAIFDN Agent Passport is an agent's passport: You set budgets, limits, and time restrictions. There's a kill switch - one button instantly shuts the agent down. Full control and auditability. Real example: An agent called 6 paid APIs → paid only $0.036 in total. That's why 500+ companies are already moving to @Kite_Frens_Eco. It's not a wallet, but dedicated infrastructure for agents.

  @CoinNapCoin1 @AskPayPal If the account details were changed recently, there may still be a traceable sequence of account modifications and login events available. The sooner those records are reviewed, the better the chances of identifying and reversing unauthorized changes affecting your account.
