Scott (@game693ws) reported@BNBuzz #BarnesandNoble Have to say that your switch over to the new website is kind of terrible. Not intuitive. Hard to find things. You don’t take #PayPal @PayPal anymore. No clue why you messed with it and respectively request that you fix it. @booksamillion looking good.

Alexandre Lores 🇺🇸🇨🇦🇨🇺 (@alexandre_lores) reportedOnboarding new tech is best dome seamlessly - as few actions as possible, and fewer "decisions". Same goes for RWAs, tokenization, Web 3.0, whatever words we use. "Click here for a 50% discount on your remittance fee with our new high-speed program." One-click. As a parallel, let's look at mobile APIs. 50% of the people using them probably never heard the term. 99% of users don't even have a basic technical understanding of what coding language to use for an efficient secure application programming interface. That doesn't stop an estimated 4-6 million people from using mobile APIs regularly. (Sign in with Google/Apple, Pay with PayPal)

DEUKAE VOTING TEAM ⚔️ (@deukae7voting) reported(Photos 1 & 2) On May 18, during Round 1, we reserved 1.8M Blue Jams from them. They asked for a 40% down payment upfront, which we sent immediately as requested. (Photos 3 & 4) However, on the final day of voting, with less than two hours remaining before the deadline, we reached out because they still hadn't delivered the votes. They then told us they were unable to vote and offered to refund our payment. However, they never returned the money, claiming they didn't have Wise and that their PayPal account was on hold.

Silicon Salvage (@SiliconSalvage) reportedPayPal is being priced as a melting ice cube. The capital return says otherwise. The setup: $5.23B of net income against a $36.5B market cap. That’s a 14.3% earnings yield — roughly triple a 10-year Treasury, on a $33B - revenue payments network, not a distressed cyclical. What the multiple implies: at 7.8x earnings versus ~20x for the index, the market is underwriting structural, terminal decline — flat-to-negative growth in perpetuity. That is the bet embedded in $PYPL today, whether or not anyone says it out loud. What management is actually doing: $6.05B of buybacks last year — equal to 16.6% of the entire market cap repurchased in a single fiscal year, funded entirely from operating cash flow, not leverage. At a depressed multiple, every dollar retired compounds per-share value faster than it would at any point in the last decade. The asymmetry: you’re being paid a double-digit earnings yield to wait, while the share count shrinks underneath you. Down 48% from the high, consensus has stopped paying attention. Re-rating is optional. The buyback isn’t. The first is upside; the second is the floor.

Alex Kowalsky (@alexmk) reported@AndyMitten @UWSmag Hi Andy. I’ve just subscribed via PayPal but put in the wrong shipping address. How can we fix this? Thank you! Huge, huge fan of @TOTDevils.

SokoAnalyst (@SokoAnalyst) reportedEnrique Lores, this is your test as PayPal CEO. Do not inherit a broken global system and polish it with corporate language. Fix it. Africa is not asking for favours. Africa is demanding fair access to its own money.

Bunkei (@AlphaISMRadio) reported@katejennz @TylorHepnerArt I did earlier, but now I must force the issue. I'm so sorry ... but ... you wouldn't happen to know Tylor's PayPal would you???

Fitz (@Fitz_Doud) reportedHow do strangers, agents, communities, or businesses create spendable obligations between each other without needing a bank, card network, PayPal, Stripe, or centralized balance sheet to decide who is allowed to issue value and who must accept it?

Stoic Chain (@stoicchain) reportedStripe walked away from crypto in 2018. Said it was too slow. Too volatile. Not ready. They just came back. USDC, live, real merchants, real transactions. Not just Stripe. Visa is now settling money between banks using USDC on Ethereum. PayPal built PYUSD and loaded it into 430 million wallets. Tether and USDC move more dollars per year than Visa's card network. Read that again. Here's why this is happening: wiring money between banks takes 3 days and costs up to $25. USDC lands in seconds. Any time. Sundays. Holidays. 3am. For a few cents. Visa's current system takes 2 days to actually move the money after you swipe your card the "instant" you see on your phone is an IOU. USDC settles for real while you're still putting your wallet away. The companies that built how you pay for everything looked at blockchain rails, compared them to what they're running now, and said: this is better. So they switched. Stripe, Visa, PayPal these aren't crypto companies. They're the backbone of global commerce. And they all chose the same infrastructure. That's not a bet on crypto. That's crypto winning.

b. (@COMMEdesARCHIVE) reported@LurkerLouis they had to cut off their paypal partnership years back just to cut down seller’s fees, still not enough when everyone has a side business or know someone to help co-sign for cheaper in store. they’re cooked.

Donald J. Gorbachev (@donaldgorbachev) reportedThiel started a Roth IRA with a contribution of less than $2,000 in 1999  and paid $0.001 per share of PayPal and bought 1.7 million shares — a large stake for just $1,700 , then let it ride inside the tax shelter until it held $5 billion, spread across 96 subaccounts, by 2019 , all of it withdrawable tax-free at 59½. That’s the most valuable Roth IRA in America. And that — that — is the dark lord’s masterstroke. Sit with it. The antichrist cannot have the most expensive Roth IRA. It is a category error. You are supposed to be the inhuman thing that answers to no one, the man who read Girard and decided to be the scapegoat machine, and your actual signature move is the one every community-college finance professor scrawls on the whiteboard and calls genius: max the Roth, buy early, never sell, die untaxed. He did the thing in the personal-finance subreddit. The secret is that there’s no secret.  The prince of darkness ran the exact play a dentist in Tulsa runs, just with founder shares and a straight face. The kitchen had him slotted for the abyss and he turned in a tax-optimized retirement account at 59-and-a-half. Genuinely disappointed. You had the whole apocalypse queued up, Peter, and you botched it on the 401k. Some Beast — diversified, sheltered, and patiently waiting for the penalty-free withdrawal window.

Lincoln💙🐶(Reagan🩷🐶 Kennedy 🩷🐶&🐱's) (@DogsRAngels1) reported@flatcoatsx3 OMD pal, it might be! The Amazon used to be better about this stuff, I really don't know. Treebs Mom that lives in Wales has DM'ed me so she can send money to paypal. But, we do not want you or anyone else to have to go to too much trouble! We appreciate you wanting to help!

FritzVA (@fritzva15) reported@justvikinggg Indeed, although I'm not surprised considering I laid everything out clean as can be, Kept vulgarity to a minimum and sure, I called 'em a ******' dumbass for defending this disgusting trash... but otherwise I really have no issues with them. (P.S That and if they were to respond they'd have to actually account for all of the info above, There's really no way to spin it any other way than "She knew what she signed up for by getting a paypal account, Then she got caught and as such Actions have consequences. Does it suck? Obviously, yes.. but for someone like Vex? I don't feel bad.

Post-Left Watch (postleftwatch.bsky.social) (@PostLeftWatch) reportedThey're being paid through PayPal, so that 2.5 million probably went down to about $800,000 afterwards.

TheOpeningMove (@TheOpeningMove1) reported@Polymarket and if the AI bill is finally a real problem, that money has to land somewhere. there's a shelf of profitable leaders down 80%+ that nobody will touch. paypal alone throws off 15% of its market cap in cash a year. same week broadcom lost $280B for a record quarter.

e_odeo (@e_odeo) reportedIn something totally unrelated: PayPal closing down accounts is also going to cost a lot more than just money.

Mel Asks (@mel_asks) reported@AlanSla90124663 @Hedgewatchers @BrambleRamble4 I never thought of the PayPal reporting, but that would catch a lot of scammers since they use PayPal across SMS. And PayPal as well as Go Fund Me are very proactive shutting down fake accounts.

Momma Occo | Drama VTuber | 🐙🤡 | ( ???? ) (@MommaOcco) reported@TheLastDistress I agree. Holding money in PayPal is dangerous. Regardless I still have seen people say they were reporting her with the intent to shut this down. Now she has damages...

Emely(COMS CLOSED) 🇵🇸🇮🇩 (@Aoisins12) reported@AutumnSakuraaa The problem is, all the transaction options failed, and I’m tired. They said my PayPal account doesn’t support international transactions, but my commission always handles international transactions, so the last resort is to send the gift as Astrites 😭🥀
