Paradise Mint (@paradisemint) reported@CryptoTice_ If a person actually reads the Clarity Act they will see it is actually a take over of crypto in the USA by the banking cartel. It will have all the same reporting requirements as the US Dollar. Send $600 to a friend, count on them getting a 1099. Same KYC policies in place and makes it impossible for new crypto companies to form in the USA. Basically is puts crypto into the same category as PayPal or Venmo. Gives the Federal Reserve, SEC and others in charge of many aspects of crypto. The problem like most bills is no one actually reads it. The supporters are all just people who own bitcoin that want it to return to the 120K + range and don’t look at anything else.

Owen (@Owennfa) reportedIn 2008 Elon Musk had $0 left. He had poured his entire $180,000,000 PayPal fortune into SpaceX and Tesla. SpaceX had just failed its third rocket launch in a row. Tesla was on the verge of bankruptcy. His marriage fell apart. He lost his house. He was borrowing money from friends just to pay rent. In an interview that year he broke down in tears and said: “I never thought I was someone who could ever be broken. But 2008 broke me. I just didn’t know how I was going to make it.” Three months later SpaceX launched successfully for the first time. Six months later Tesla closed a financing round on Christmas Eve, literally hours before bankruptcy. Today SpaceX is worth $350,000,000,000. The people who told him to save his money and go sit on the beach are watching.

Idris Akinlabi (@eedris_akinlabi) reportedThis whole #Outlier banning Nigerians saga is annoying. But let me shift your perspective to the bigger issue The system was never really designed with Nigerians in mind in the first place. Over the years, Nigerians have been blocked, restricted or heavily scrutinized on platforms like: PayPal receiving Stripe Atlas Wise Mercury Outlier TikTok Creativity Program Certain US fintech apps The painful reality is that once Nigeria enters the conversation online, many global systems immediately switch into fraud-prevention mode. That stigma is affecting millions of honest, talented Nigerians trying to work globally. This is bigger than VPNs. It’s a reputation and trust crisis attached to an entire country.

Arian Van de Carr (@arianhushyar) reportedOne 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.

Keith Diamond (@KeithDiamond994) reported@Catholic_bro @EddieJamro84189 You are a deceitful liar who I will expose as such every day I can. You get NO MONEY because NONE of these WORDS ARE IN THE BIBLE. I issue the challenge anew. IF the things you believe are ANYTHING OTHER THAN MADE UP CRAP it should be EASY TO FIND THEM IN THE B-I-B-L-E,. right? So I will PayPal or CashApp or Venmo YOU 10K , ten thousand dollars, for every single mention you find of the following SEVEN words, ready? Bible commentaries and concordances are NOT inspired by God and I , who know so much more than YOU, can point out blatant lies in various bible commentaries like "The trinity" which obviously is not biblical! Find ( ROSARY, POPE, CARDINAL, SACRAMENT, MASS, EUCHARIST, CATHOLIC.) These words cover your entire fake religion. That's at minimum 70K you could have in MINUTES if your religion comes from the bible, that is. IF YOU ASKED ME to prove that MY baptism is BIBLICAL, I’d take you to ACTS 2:38 where Peter commanded us to be BAPTIZED IN JESUS’ NAME .. Acts 2:38King James Version 38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. And tell you that on 12-27-92 between 2 and 4 pm I was BAPTIZED AS ORDERED in Jesus’ name. If you asked me to prove that I have the HOLY GHOST, I would take you to Acts 2:4 because.... Acts 2:4King James Version 4 And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance. ...this where the Apostles received the Holy Ghost with the evidence of speaking in tongues and tell you that after being baptized correctly in Jesus name I spoke in tongues 12-27-92 between 2 and 4 pm. EaZY PeaZY. If the things you believe are BIBLICAL that's 70K you could gain IF those things are even mentioned JUST ONCE. If they are mentioned multiple times, that's MORE MONEY FOR YOU. Good luck.

TristinaL 🫎 (@LTristina) reportedProblem It SolvesVietnamese freelancers receiving payments from Upwork, Fiverr, or international clients face high fees (PayPal 4-5%, Wise ~0.5-1% + delays) and long settlement times (1-3 days).

Dark Brenda (@NuckChorris16) reportedI made negative comments about @AttaPollTeam and they disabled my account the next day. Because their payment system should never take 72 hours to send to PayPal or Venmo. I use two other apps for surveys and there's not a single problem with them. It's cute when these people retaliate. Some companies just can't seem to get a hold of competent software engineers no matter what they do because they're in a scam business that target's desperate people most of the time.

Haku (@luchy_bdlv) reported@the_FANSSHOP I first tried to pay for the order via PayPal. Five minutes after receiving an email confirming the payment went through, I got another email saying my refund was processed in error. Then I tried with another card, and I received an email at 8:39 AM saying the payment was done

Jordan Barrand (@0X_Barrand) reported@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.

Seyed Fardeen Nezami / سید فردین نظامی (@sfnzmi) reported@kenaviba @jacobreis1996 Venmo is not accepting my bank account details. In the meantime, I have PayPal and Zelle (preferred). I hope one of those options will work for you, otherwise I will work to resolve the Venmo issue. Please let me know 🙏 And thank you in advance.

Dev Shah (@devlikesbizness) reportedBeing CFO isn't always formal meetings and spreadsheets. Sometimes it's managing a full-blown payment crisis from Thailand, too. Two payment rails went dark in the same week, and PayPal got blocked. The primary bank stopped receiving payments, both at the same time. Here's what actually happened.. We're mid-migration, moving assets across geographies, and the system flagged it automatically. The bank issue was on their end. But when two of your main ways to move money go down at once, you don't get to wait around for an explanation. Especially not from a beach in Phuket. So we shifted our affiliate payments to a new format that we were already planning to build anyway. Incoming payments were rerouted to the secondary bank we had set up and running. >No affiliate missed a payment. >No customer was affected. The whole team held it together quietly while it was happening. This was a lesson worth remembering, so we extended the runway, cleaned up some operational gaps, and put buffers in place while waiting for the revenue from our investments to kick in. Sometimes you build these buffers not because you expect chaos. You build them because chaos can just be another Tuesday. Even when that Tuesday is in Thailand. All systems are stable, our affiliates are paid, and payments are flowing. So if you're building and haven't set up your secondary rails yet, do it before you need them.

𝔔𝔲𝔢𝔩𝔩𝔢 (@quelle560699) reportedGM frens ☕ Instead of waiting for the same gatekeepers to adopt crypto, we should be asking a much bigger question: What real-world problems can we solve with the ledger? A lot of people seem excited about Visa, PayPal, Stripe, and other large companies integrating crypto. But what has really changed if users are still dependent on the same intermediaries, the same rules, and the same extraction of value while only the technology running in the background is different? Crypto started as a movement to create decentralized alternatives. To give people ownership, sovereignty, and direct access to value without requiring permission from centralized entities. Somewhere along the way, the goal shifted from replacing gatekeepers to celebrating their participation.

YouWillBeOffended (@UWillBeOffended) reported@3G2point0 @CardPurchaser @eBay 1. eBay Money Back Guarantee might still help Even if you’re past the standard 30-day window from the estimated delivery date, open a “Item Not Received” request in your Purchases right away. Go to the order, hit “More actions,” and report it didn’t arrive. If the seller keeps dodging, ask eBay to step in after a few business days. They often side with buyers on non-delivery, especially with a paper trail of the seller admitting they never mailed it and promising refunds.  2. Payment method is your backup • PayPal? You usually have up to 180 days from payment for a dispute/claim. Log in and open one for “Item Not Received.” • Credit/Debit Card? Contact your bank or card issuer ASAP for a chargeback. Explain the situation with screenshots of messages, promises, and lack of delivery. Many issuers are buyer-friendly here.  3. Other steps to take now • Document everything: Save all chat messages, the original listing, tracking (if any), and dates. • Message the seller one more polite-but-firm time: “Hey, still no card or refund. Please issue it today or I’ll have to escalate with eBay/PayPal/bank.” • Check the seller’s feedback and report them if they’re sketchy. In most cases like this, buyers do get their money back one way or another – eBay hates scammy sellers too. If the amount is small, it might not be worth huge stress, but don’t let them get away with it.

Lixie~🩵 (@Lixie_yongbok) reported@leeminoot Hi lei.. with my first order I waited for an hour and it was still processing and after sometime the app just restarted. The order is not appearing in my order history. But eximbay email (like PayPal) has order number and I can see that order if use that order number. I haven’t received any refund (it’s been an hour or more infact) which means that the order is confirmed it’s just not tagged to my account. If you have not received an order I suggest raise an inquiry because I think the issue is with tagging the order to an account. Do you have the order number in the bank email or message by any chance, you can use that. Sorry for the lengthy reply🫣

Teslaconomics (@Teslaconomics) reportedAre 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.
