  @carlocapocasa @Kimi_Moonshot My issue with them was the way they do business. Look at the difference in how they handled their model rollout versus Kimi. Kimi stopped taking subscriptions so they could service their existing customers first and foremost. Meanwhile, Z AI jacked up prices on all their coding plans and kept taking in more subs while they had an active caching issue on the backend that was causing exorbitant usage well beyond what it should have been. At one point on their "20X" plan, I was getting less usage than I would have on Codex's "5X" plan. People were in chat every day talking about the issue, and the response from staff was insane—they'd acknowledge the issue one hour, then a completely different person would come in and say no refunds were being issued, all while Z AI staff were in the same chat promising refunds. I've never seen such disorganization in my life. I will never give that company another dollar. I ultimately disputed through PayPal and won when Z didn't even bother to respond.

  @Zmeinir @ScruffyTurtles That said, I’ve never sent artwork via PayPal (out of pure ignorance); I send it by email or via a temporary link, especially if it involves N5FW or saucy illustration, since Google can be triggered just like PayPal and shut down your email account.

  I'm not gonna lie...there is something that just doesn't seem right. Everyone is out here complaining about PayPal suspending them, banning them, etc. A lot of the time due to poor tax practices or just frustrating customer service... But no one is talking about how many Twitch streamers have lost their paychecks due to Twitch not fixing or updating the community about a hacker bypassing their OWN 2FA to change your payout details with no email (meanwhile when I change it I get an email...) And Twitch won't refund because you agree each time you use Twitch to an AS IS policy that means you are agreeing that you take responsibility and will not hold Twitch liable for failed security measures...because you are agree to their security AS IS...even if this has been happening since January to many creators... Don't worry...Twitch still gets their 50/40/30% no issue 👍🏻

  X Money pays 6% APY on deposits. The US average deposit rate is 0.38%. Call it 15.8 times. Ally and SoFi, the strongest online banks, top out at 4 to 4.21%. X pays more than that too. X isn't a bank and doesn't want to be. Deposits sit at Cross River Bank, a partner. KCIF writes plainly that the structure exists to avoid bank capital and liquidity requirements. The one paying 15 times the average is the one not carrying bank capital rules. Cross River is a New Jersey chartered bank with $8.7bn in total assets, specialised in renting account, payment and lending infrastructure to other platforms. The rate is probably promotional. Ken Tumin points to Chime and SoFi, where these numbers drifted back to competitor levels over time. There are gaps on the map. X holds money transmitter licences in 41 states and DC, but not New York or Massachusetts, where state legislators leaned on the regulators. Deposit protection runs to $250,000 per person, or up to $10m for larger balances through an IntraFi sweep. PayPal and Venmo carry none at all. The next question is stablecoins. If X issues its own, money parked in it may sit outside protection no matter what backs the reserves.

  @pchopra28 I think that is a fairly consensus take tbh the classic trope is that mafias get formed from companies with some success but not too much and some catalyzing event to churn people out, and people classically cite Paypal as having these conditions I wouldn’t call Stripe a slow burn. going from zero to $200B valuation in 17 years is insane RE your google/fb examples: the reason people haven’t held “ex-google” in high regard since the early 2010s is not because all the great people stayed (plenty of them left), it’s because the hiring bar decayed and the culture itself at google became soft and no longer deeply shaped people

  Saint John: Evernode 1:1 Freedom (@AverageJohnEVR) reported 39 minutes ago

  @PaulWavelength You are right in many ways, however... What we see in the industry right now is something called a "cluster economy". A cluster economy is when you have all of an industry gathered at the same place, even direct competitors. They eat lunch together and they mingle together (think of those old silicon valley cocktail parties during the IT boom) What makes such economy powerful is because shared knowledge between professionals happen casually. That empowers the productivity and innovation for the parties, which allow them to outcompete the rest of the world and sell products to the rest of the world. The cryptocurrency industry today is a cluster economy, those that are originated in the same location know what to do and how to do it. The problem with that is that cryptocurrencies are not products, they are economies. And you can't create an economy where the product cost nothing and the business is everyone else. Bitcoin grew big and resilience because it was global, it had a purpose and it was in demand from a user point of view (Paypal had started to freeze user funds in 2008 for trading virtual goods) When crypto clusters have bad market cycles, it takes down the whole market because the whole market is in the same cluster. But since Bitcoin is global that doesn't happen as easy. The resilience comes from being globally widespread. This is why currencies fail today, most of them come from the same cluster, those that aren't in that cluster are tired of maintaining it. So for that reason I rather be in limbo that under the clarity act. Because the current state of crypto isn't global enough, it's clustered and that is long-term unhealthy. The only successful currency today is a grass-root based one (btc), without a founding team. The only other gras-root based ones that were given an honest chance were PoW forks (meaning just copy-cats). New grass-root projects never received the attention they deserved because the noise of the cluster economy was already too loud and too desperate. (Hastily written response, I would have to spend a day writing it more properly :))

  @ThompsonJo85119 @weary_centurion And I'm just giving my opinion, pointing out his arrogance. He insults NBIS retail investors for no reason just cause the stock is down (yet still up 80%+ YTD) Meanwhile he's the same guy who bought PayPal before it crashed and kept buying...he's also a "naive retail investor"

  You spent $2,000 on a MacBook Pro for a new hire. Then $180 a year on the Microsoft 365 seat, $60 on Adobe, $144 on Slack, $240 on Zoom. All assigned to one laptop, one employee, one desk. Then your CFO asked how many of the 400 laptops in this company are actually being used, and by whom. You opened the Google Sheet. Half the rows were blank. Employees who left six months ago still had assets assigned. So IT called ServiceNow. ITAM Standard is $100 per user per month. Professional $150. Enterprise $200+. The median ServiceNow contract on Vendr is $124,364 a year. Implementation runs three to five times the license fee. Then IT called Lansweeper. $239 a month for 2,000 assets. Then IT called Freshservice. $19 per agent, then metered on every asset over 500. You are paying six figures a year to answer "who has laptop DELL-4471" in 2026. Now meet Snipe-IT. A free and open source IT asset management platform that runs on your own server and tracks every laptop, phone, license, and cable your company owns. No cloud. No agents. No per-seat fee. Built in 2013 by a developer named Alison Gianotto who was the CTO of a New York City ad agency when the office had to move. Her team was tracking hundreds of laptops in a Google Doc. She tried every commercial and open source tool. None of them worked. So she wrote her own. When she finished the first full inventory, she discovered the agency was missing $25,000 in assets. Her husband nagged her for months to add a PayPal button. She finally did it. Two days later she had a paying customer. Snipe-IT itself stayed free. 14,113 stars. 3,886 forks. AGPL-3.0. Pushed to the repo today. Here is what Snipe-IT gives you: - Track every laptop, phone, monitor, cable, and accessory in one place - Assign assets to users, departments, or locations with full history - Software license management with seat tracking and expiration alerts - Barcode and QR code generation for physical labels - Custom fields, statuses, and categories - LDAP, SAML, and Google Workspace SSO - REST API for every endpoint - Runs on any Linux box, Docker, or a $5 VPS Here is what Snipe-IT costs: Zero. Forever. No per-user fee. No asset cap. ServiceNow charges $100 per user per month. Snipe-IT doesn't. Lansweeper charges $239 a month for 2,000 assets. Snipe-IT doesn't. Freshservice meters every asset over 500. Snipe-IT doesn't. Ivanti and Flexera hide their pricing behind a sales call. Snipe-IT doesn't. Here's the wildest part: Snipe-IT is used by Sony, Yale University, Fujitsu, and thousands of school districts, hospitals, and government agencies that couldn't stomach a $124,000 ServiceNow bill. Alison's official title at Grokability is Chief Mohawk Officer. For a 50-person IT team, you save $60,000 a year. For a 500-person company, you save $600,000 a year. Your assets. Your database. Your server. 100% Open Source. (Link in the comments)
