  @0xCryptoGreekie Yo 0x. I'll be honest. I simply don't know. It all sound great and we've been hearing potential for at least 5 years, but if it's going to happen, then what's most likely to occur is that these payment companies are likely to build it on their own. And, most of all it will require a stable coin. I do strongly believe is that it will near absolutely involve stablecoins, such as USDt & USDc. SUI and a number of networks handle stablecoins well. As odd as it may sound, these big corporations would rather operate of something clunky, that's still crypto, but something they've created and most importantly own and control. Thus, it won't be any network we're familiar with. There will be a USDv (a VISA stablecoin). There will be a USDjpm, USDgoldman, etc. PayPal has their own as does Polymarket. They operate internally. I see no chance a major corporation is going to adopt anything out there that has touched anything we know. They'll build their own. Polymarket only uses the polygon network for wager incoming and then wager settlements (if the bet wins). You can see the proceed go out of your wallet, it then goes into a digital bean counter. If the wager wins, the proceed get spit back out on clunky Polygon. The actual trading is done on servers where all the accounting and score keeping is tallied and resolved on a digital ledger. This is probably the model for trading someday, except they build their own internal crypto network. If they even need it, which they probably don't. Right now, the Visa, MC & AmEx network operates just the way they want it to operate, and it's going to take over 50 years to grind into those market structures. Moreover, we haven't even got to the legal complication of how credit cards make their money w/r/t fees and fraud, charge backs, etc. It may cost them a lot, but they have an immense edge they will never give up because the merchant and customers end up paying in the end. As for high finance, it's the same thing. For SWIFT, it will likely be something the US builds that will integrate with what others CBs have. Probably swapping USDt & USDc. The problem is: these need to be hidden. High finance is not open to disclosure, and legally they don't have to. NYSE & Nasdaq. Same thing. They will build their own and integrate the endpoints which connect to a stable coin somewhere. I see no current decentralized network (eth sol sui btc kas, or any current L1) that a major Fortune 500 company is going to adopt and use. They will not relinquish centralization on a broad scale. There may be a few small cases. I do know that Kadena was tested for JPMorgan and it didn't work. It was passed on. Now Kadena is officially dead. I'm not optimistic. We've heard it all before, but I take it 1 year at a time.

  Are people really that shocked that Elon could become the world’s first trillionaire on SpaceX IPO day? When you actually look at what he’s built, and the size of the missions behind each company, it feels more inevitable than surprising tbh. As of June 10, 2026, here’s the current snapshot of his portfolio (just approximates): Tesla is sitting around a $1.45 trillion market cap, and Elon owns roughly 20.3%, putting his stake somewhere around $294 billion to $302 billion. SpaceX, including Starlink, xAI, and X, is valued around $1.25 trillion today, with an IPO target around $1.75 trillion to $1.77 trillion. With Elon owning roughly 41% to 43%, that stake alone could be worth $512 billion to $540 billion today, and potentially $725 billion to $866 billion after IPO. Then you add Neuralink, valued around $9.65 billion, where his stake could be worth $6 billion to $8 billion. And The Boring Company, valued around $5.7 billion, where his stake could be worth another $4.5 billion to $5.2 billion. Altogether, his total stake value across everything is roughly $830 billion to $870 billion, with his current net worth around $784.5 billion. This dude is building electric vehicles and sustainable energy with Tesla. Reusable rockets and global internet through SpaceX and Starlink. Brain-computer interfaces through Neuralink. AI through xAI. And underground infrastructure through The Boring Company… these are companies attacking some of the hardest problems in the world from energy, transportation, space, internet access, healthcare, AI, and the future of civilization. You can debate the timelines. You can debate his style. You can debate the man. But it’s super hard to argue with the direction. These companies are creating real value for millions of people today, and potentially billions of people over time. That’s why the trillionaire milestone doesn't really shock me, like it does for others. Wealth at that level happens when people voluntarily choose products and services that make their lives better, save them time, open new possibilities, and solve problems that once looked impossible. And if someone is going to become the world’s first trillionaire, I’d rather it be someone whose companies are trying to make humanity multi-planetary, accelerate sustainable energy, restore neurological function, expand global connectivity, and build the future of intelligence. The track record speaks for itself. PayPal. Tesla. SpaceX. Starlink. Neuralink. xAI. Again and again, Elon has stepped into areas most people thought were too hard, too risky, or too far away… and turned it into reality. When you look at the problems his companies are solving, the scale of the markets they’re going after, and the value they’re creating, it makes sense. He deserves it.

  stop making it hard for people to give you money. if you only take paypal, you're losing 30% of your sales. i shouldn't have to register a new account just to pay your invoice. it's annoying. it's slow. it makes you look like a kid. have paypal, wise, and crypto ready at all times. every second of friction is a reason for them to ghost you. be easy to work with. or stay broke.

  Excellent news. The problem is that the WEF has already planned for this. Their new "central bank" is actually PayPal, using billions of a digital currency supplied by Ethereum. And because it's an international business, there doesn't have to be a nation-by-nation push for CBDC when the "central bank" is actually a payment provider that exists in spite of government policies, forcing them to conform to their rules. If Visa and Mastercard follow and adopt this model, then we're screwed no matter what. If we want to shut the book on the CBDC concept once and for all, backing decentralized cryptocurrencies is what we need to do.

  I've seen the scammer allegations being spread by @paxilard , so I want to explain what actually happened. The entire situation is over $10. In the past, I helped him by receiving payments from his clients through PayPal or Cash App and then forwarding those funds to his Venmo. This wasn't something I was doing for free either he agreed that I could keep 25% of the money I processed as compensation for helping him. Because payment platforms can flag unusual activity, I specifically told him that he needed to let me know before sending any money. This time, he sent money without notifying me beforehand. I wasn't aware the payment had been sent until after the fact, and shortly afterward, my account was locked. Because of that restriction, I wasn't able to handle the transfer the way I normally would. At no point did I scam anyone, take money with the intention of keeping it, or disappear with someone's funds. The issue happened because money was sent without notice, despite me making it clear that I needed a heads-up before any transaction. I also told him that I don't believe I should be responsible for paying the $10 back because the situation was caused by him sending the money without warning after I had specifically asked him not to do that. However, if I have extra money available, I'm still willing to send him the $10 just to put the situation behind us and avoid unnecessary drama. What makes the allegations even more confusing is that this wasn't some random interaction between strangers. We had an arrangement where I was helping process payments and was allowed to keep 25% as compensation. If I were trying to scam him, I wouldn't have been openly working with him under an agreed setup in the first place. Instead of being met with calm attempts to resolve the issue, I was threatened, including being told to "watch my back." I'm sharing this because I want people to have the full story rather than hearing only one side. People can make their own judgments based on the facts.

  Let’s clear up a common misconception. Doctors are not getting paid every time they prescribe a medication. There is no secret PayPal from Big Pharma. Per prescription kickbacks are illegal. Now, do financial relationships between physicians and industry exist? Yes. But they are generally tied to services rendered or other transfers of value, not prescriptions. Examples include: • Conducting research • Consulting • Speaking or education • Travel related to legitimate professional activities • Meals provided during educational presentations Many of these relationships are publicly reported and searchable through the Open Payments database. That is very different from: “Your doctor prescribed a medication, therefore they got paid.” That is not how this works. And here’s where I think people should apply the same skepticism consistently. If a wellness influencer is selling supplements, detoxes, coaching, testing, memberships, affiliate products, or courses, ask: • How much money do they make from this recommendation? • What happens to their income if you follow their advice? • Are they profiting from keeping you worried about a problem? • Are they selling a solution to a fear they created? • Are they discussing risks, limitations, and uncertainty or only benefits? Because here’s the interesting part: You can look up many physician industry payments in a public database. There is no public website where you can search how much a wellness influencer made from a supplement deal, affiliate link, brand partnership, detox program, or coaching package. Financial incentives deserve scrutiny. All of them. Not just the ones we already disagree with. Skepticism is healthy. Selective skepticism is not.

  @Uzwzp63636 They should be, but the algos seem to hate PayPal for pretty much everything, macro concerns, AI fears, government data releases, you name it. The bigger issue is that investors simply don't trust this management team. The market wants urgency, execution, and accountability $PYPL

  @contractorkeith @danwestworld Appreciate it. But I also would encourage you to actually watch his content delivery because I looked into him and he actually has a solid background in sales from working for PayPal… The problem is actual scammers appropriated so many actual legitimate corporate best practices that it makes the optics of literal traditional sales and marketing look like a scam to anyone who hasn’t done the gig in corporate… Which is most people…

  Facebook sold our data for years and years made billions of dollars and then they got caught. So now we the people got robbed will get a measly 29 dollars for the first payment and maybe 4 bucks for the second payment. 😡 Meanwhile lots of strangers have all our private information our photos our private conversations to friends and family while the law firms get 181 million dollars or our money. These lawyers tried to settle quick so they could get the million dollar payout that goes directly into their pockets. Heck they all are probably working with FB buddies with them this is all just part of their way to keep us all poor and keep themselves rich. What kind of world do we live in that lets this happen? Check your bank account, Venmo, PayPal and email: A surprise second round of payments is starting in the $725 million class action settlement over Facebook users' privacy issues.

  One startup lesson I didn’t expect: Paying people is harder than selling. We can manually pay affiliates thru @PayPal, but their Mass Payouts/API keeps getting denied for “risk” with no clear way to fix. I understand controls. But startups need a real path to prove legitimacy.

  When I got the moderator booking for the ADC Festival Business Stage, my first thought was: 41 amazing speakers. Let's interview them all. Spoiler: Didn't quite catch them all, BUT: I've wanted to do these street-style interviews with executives from the creative / tech industry for a long time. The problem is always the same - access while still being "nonchalant". Yes, I said it. Being the moderator changes the math entirely. Nobody says no to the moderator asking for a quick question on cam (except for journalists, lol). So I ran two things at the same time yesterday. 9 hours of hosting the Business Stage - speakers from Katjes, Siemens, Meta, McDonald's, PayPal, DFB, OMR, BMW Motorrad, Dr Oetker... - and between every slot, I grabbed whoever I could find and pulled them in front of my camera. Out of 41 speakers, I got 27 on camera. Videos coming soon.
