    the market runs 1,440 minutes a day. you run about 40. that's the entire problem. everything else you argue about on this app is downstream of that one number. so people build crutches. price alerts. a hundred goddamn price alerts. and a price alert is the dumbest possible version of your thesis, because it only knows one number. it can't tell a breakout from a wick that got bought back in nine seconds. the other camp sells you a bot. black box, a backtest curve going up and to the right, no way to ask it what the hell it's doing. most of it is a ******* screenshot business, not a trading business. TradeOS took the boring road instead. you type a sentence. plain English, no Pine Script, no repo to clone: "analyze QQQ 1D chart with trend analysis using moving average, MACD, squeeze momentum, ATR" that sentence becomes an agent: > it runs 24/7 > it watches the assets you named while you're asleep > it drops the verdict in your feed. "detected 3 trends." or nothing, which is also an answer. 13,000+ assets in reach. the agent doesn't get bored at minute 41. there's a second piece on there I think is underrated. an indicator market. one premarket S&P model has 19,347 subscribers on it. you can rent someone else's edge instead of rebuilding it from scratch, or publish yours and let other people pay for it. that's a real market, not a Discord with a paywall. now the part almost nobody clicks on. @TradeOS_ai is built on @verona_dev. Verona doesn't rent them blockspace. Verona earns a share of what the app earns. read that twice, because it inverts the usual deal. every other chain wants your gas and a logo in their ecosystem deck. Verona only gets paid when the app on top of it gets paid. that changes who they let build. a landlord takes any tenant. a partner does diligence. and look at who picked those rails. teams that moved money at eBay, PayPal, ByteDance, American Express. those people shipped payment infrastructure at a scale where a bad rail costs real money and somebody's job. they don't pick rails for the vibes. that's the signal I'd weigh, honestly. not the roadmap. the choice.

    @AskPayPal Hello, my account has been permanently banned or restricted right after I submitted my ID with no clear reason. I've been waiting for a week to use it, I woke up first thing in the morning is my account has been banned. Please fix this

    @s0_sm0l Yeahhh. Their account was just like yours so my gullible *** thought it was either a glitch or an alt for dms. Paypal wasn't letting me send them the money so I sent a steam gift card to their email. I'm okay and I can definitely recover from this but it kinda sucks!

    @femceldreamz I’m sorry you didn’t get tix :( once it found them for me I didn’t have problems checking out. It might have been your payment method? My bank flags certain bigger transactions as fraud sometimes and declines them. Do you have a different way to pay tomorrow? I used PayPal.

    @videogamedeals I've always preferred physical out of habit, but back in 2022 my Nintendo account got banned for a PayPal chargeback. Problem is I don't have a PayPal account. I got unbanned but the 2-3 days I was banned all my digital games were locked. Reinforced how important ownership is.

    @LuisBizarro I don’t understand how these legacy companies are still alive. Every time I even try to login to eBay, it gives me so much friction where I just give up and close the tab. Every PayPal account I’ve had has been hacked.

    Aditya (@AdityaCursed) reported

    @Cal_I_Guess No option to add Paypal. The only reliable way is buying giftcards which only come in 1k,2k,3k etc. if i wanna buy a game thats 599 i gotta pay an extra 400 to get a 1000 rupee gift card and only use half on the digital purchase. Not the case with physical. Unless they fix this+

    So last month I had 5 people interested in commissioning me. One had PayPal issue, one I made the doodle, one wanted to work with me... All of them ghosted me, nobody paid, or told me they weren't interested. So I'm wondering if I should just stop making commissions.

    @PayPal Placed an international @Etsy order that took 28 days to arrive damaged & missing items. To keep buyer protection, I should've escalated to PayPal day 1 to freeze seller funds. Giving them time to send a replacement exceeded that window. 30 days is wild with how slow Etsy can be.

    My Glitch poster arrived and it says the Animegaz arrived too... but it didn't show up yet. I'm praying it's a mistake on how its typed out on PayPal tracking. I got the poster from the door the same minute the door rang so I don't think it could of been stolen like that, idk.

    @pbeisel Now you have my curiosity peaked. In the 80s I was trying to use a spinning reflecting lens to redirect a pulsed high intensity light beam to multiple targets. Nobody would tell us why, but it was during the Reagan, star wars era. I was toying with the idea of something similar to a daisy ball in a typewriter. Cooling was my biggest issue. I was not great with thermodynamics. I focused more on RF, as data transport without wires capitivated my attention. The late 90's on were my playground. Captive portal tech was where I shined. Chillispot, Linksys, Aironet, worked with Boingo, PayPal, Direcway and IP3 and Barricade. Sorry for the block Google. Published in Women's Business Journal a week before they did. Ouch! all that money on dark fiber. Fun times! Oops, distracted by the happy memories.

    @BrillVFX I normally don’t make posts like this, but after giving this person more than enough time, patience, and opportunities to communicate with me, I feel like this needs to be made public. On July 8th, I paid him to create an intro for my team. We said deadline was 1 week. Its is now Aug 7,2026. After receiving the payment, he sent me 1-2 updates showing that he had started working on the project. That was essentially the only real progress/update I received. I didn’t rush him. I gave him roughly 1–2 weeks without bothering him because I understood that creative work takes time. After that period passed with no update, I reached out simply asking about the status of the intro. It then took him another week just to respond. When he finally responded, he explained that he was dealing with a situation involving his family problems. I completely respected that. I didn’t argue with him, pressure him, or immediately ask for my money back. I gave him additional time because I understood that real-life situations come before a project. Another week passed. I reached out again asking for an update. No response. From that point forward, I continued trying to contact him and no communication. At this point, an entire month has passed since I paid him, I still do not have the intro I paid for, and I have not received consistent communication regarding the project. Eventually, after repeatedly trying to handle this privately, I told him that if I continued receiving no response, I would have no choice but to make the situation public and pursue a refund through PayPal. I gave this situation every opportunity to be resolved privately before posting anything publicly. I was patient, I respected the personal circumstances he told me about, and I gave him significantly more time because of them. This post is not being made to send harassment toward anybody. I’m posting this to document my experience and warn other people who may consider purchasing work from him. Everything I’m stating here will be accompanied by screenshots so people can look at the timeline, messages, payment, and communication themselves and form their own opinion. I paid for a service on July 8th. I gave him weeks of patience and multiple opportunities to communicate with me. I still have not received what I paid for. At this point, based on my experience, I believe I was scammed. I have opened/pursued a dispute through PayPal to recover my money. I genuinely wanted to handle this privately, but there comes a point where ignoring a paying customer and failing to deliver what they purchased needs to be addressed. Receipts/screenshots below.

    Jayne : stand your ground (@JaynenotJanie) reported

    @KissMyCarol Too much de-banking and platforms making decisions based on social credit. I know the D banking has greatly improved and is likely not going to come back in a big way. But I had a PayPal account and they had put out several years ago that if you made unacceptable statements on social media Facebook etc. that they would confiscate up to $2500 from your bank account And sequester that money for your PayPal purchases. So I eliminated my PayPal account and I refuse to work with any corporation that threatens me. I don't think that X will do anything like that but I don't know what will happen down the road and I just don't trust what already happened to me Also how's your first night of retirement?

    Of course I have no proof other than my guy lol PayPal is strict but ...Yes and no, the no isn't in the sense where they are doing something wrong. However, they only issue income tax papers IF they have a business number for her. They don't require this at least from Ontario Canadians BC there is an income earned threshold where we HAVE TO have a buness number. PayPal can and does ask but again it's not required until they ask for it. I've a business account for 2 decades. They asked me for a business number only 6-7 months ago.

    @Drinkooor @GrapheneOS Thanks, but this should come with a caveat that old reports likely aren't applicable anymore. It lists Revolut and PayPal as compatible, I tried the latter recently and it gives an error about phone being rooted.
