  @ZandoraVT But this is purely Paypal which has always been an issue for many artists. If someone was planning to chargeback they will either u commission it on vgen or Kofi or carrd or any other platform. I don’t trust Paypal for that reason

  @RightScopee Not in a minute. They money will be spent to save way more than a 1000 livelihoods! Look at the vision, the success and transparancy and the facts of what this man is truly about and why the extra zeros matter. Elon could drop a million dollars at my feet and walk away and I am the poor MF that would chase him down to give it back and ask WTF just out of curiousity. Obviously I am an Elon fan and have been since his PayPAl days.

  @COV_VP @codeofvets @stripe I did see this. After I raised the original issue. The new system is far better than PayPal. Just be aware that their system will try to add a company to your registration. They tried adding my Condo association to my registration because I pay dues online.

  @FTC I am following up on an official complaint I filed with your office a few years ago. I continue to experience issues with several companies that appear to block or withhold funds through their policies or technology. These companies include Gmail, Cash App, PayPal, and X (formerly Twitter). Cash App is embedded within the X platform, yet after years they still claim I never received funds that should have reached me. I strongly suspect fabricated transaction numbers or records, which I believe constitutes fraud. These actions have resulted in the loss of life-changing sums of money due to what appears to be poor policy enforcement and/or malfeasance. I respectfully request that the FTC investigate these companies for unfair and deceptive practices. Please advise on the status of my prior complaint and what additional documentation or steps are needed to move forward. Thank you for your assistance. Joshua Lowden @Telephantix

  @MatthewParrott JD Vance is a stand-in for Theil, Palantir, PayPal mafia, etc. He doesn't have sensible positions because he doesn't have any actual positions beyond what benefits the aforementioned parties and/or gets him elected. It comes down to how you feel about his backers, mentors, etc.

  If she has PayPal business account, they might be convinced into asking for a business name, number and address. They typically don't require it for a small business account (there might be a monetary window) but they can ask for that info. If she has personal only account, PayPal will not issue anything for CRA, and that's how she is evading declaring her $ gifts. It's crazy that her account has not been flagged BC she gets so much cash AND that she was collecting money in Syria

  @codeofvets @PayPal This is why I shut down my account years ago when they announced their new policy of basically "if we suspect you of anything or just don't like you we will close your account and fine you $1,200 completely at our discretion. There will be no appeal process so don't even ask."

  @PayPal @AskPayPal Please restart your operations in Türkiye. We don't want to deal with @Payoneer, which charges exorbitant fees and causes problems.

  @raxkadess Girls, don't trust him. He asks to pay through PayPal Goods and Services just to file for a refund later. Plus, he reports accounts. Save yourselves the trouble and don't sell to him #buyingcontent

  raptor.trade (@raptor_trade) reported 47 minutes ago

  Everyone 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🔥

  BC & Montreal QC. But the second the sun goes down, this desperate British Columbian white ***** drops the professional act, strokes his worthless caged **** like a brainless goon, and begs to have his PayPal completely drained dry by a Superior. He lives for getting locked out,

  Currently, to prevent problems, we are only accepting requests via X DM from individuals whose online activity on platforms such as streaming and video can be verified, and only with a "full prepayment via PayPal/no illustration revisions" system.

  Elon Musk didn’t get rich by accident, by luck or by fraud. He got rich through entrepreneurship and ingenuity, and by taking enormous risks. The picture is Musk staring at the wreckage of another exploded Falcon 1 rocket, the third to fail on launch. In 2008, Musk was borrowing money from friends to pay his rent, going through a divorce, SpaceX was running out of cash, and to add to the misery, Tesla was at risk of missing payroll and going bankrupt. Down to his last $40 million of the $180 million he made from selling PayPal, Musk decided on one last roll of the dice and poured his remaining capital into a fourth launch on September 28, 2008. This time it worked. The rocket successfully reached orbit. Weeks later, SpaceX was awarded a $1.6 billion contract from NASA. A few months later, Tesla secured crucial investment to commence production of the original Tesla Roadster. "I gave both SpaceX and Tesla a probability of less than 10% likely to succeed," Musk later said. Musk could have taken a salaried job and never pursued entrepreneurship. He could have pocketed his PayPal millions and sat on a beach for the rest of his life. Instead, he risked it all and it paid off in a spectacular way, not just for him. His groundbreaking companies have given consumers new and better products and created 1000s of well-paid jobs. SpaceX alone has made more than 4,000 former and current employees Dollar millionaires. It also made Musk the world’s first Dollar trillionaire. His detractors tell you his wealth is undeserved. The truth is that when exceptional individuals like Musk run risks that may seem unacceptable to most of us, society progresses and we all gain. Instead of chastising success, we should take inspiration from people like Elon Musk. Next time you think of giving up, remember this picture.
