  My aunt found a cat that had been hit by a car. :( his diaphragm is ruptured, his ribs and jaw are broken, and he can’t eat solid food due to his jaw beingg broken. She took him to a vet and he said that if he doesn’t have surgery, he will die in 2 weeks. The surgery costs 14 million tomans (≈70 dollars) and unfortunately we cannot afford it. I don’t have paypal i just have a crypto wallet. Do u think it would help if i post it here? :( he’s in so much pain, cant breath, eat, or even pee easily.

  @AskPayPal Hello @AskPayPal. My PayPal account was recently permanently limited because it was reportedly linked to another account with unresolved issues. I believe this may relate to an old account I created years ago but never really used.

  $PYPL: PayPal 1. It will be pretty surprising if this strength holds up on $PYPL, but if it does, we're breaking above a large trendline on the daily chart at the moment. 2. Acceptance over $57.75 should send us into a key level near $58.84. If we continue over that, then we have room towards $60, and if we see acceptance over that, we could test $62 / $63. After that, it's a slew of levels every $1 until $69.8 for the most part. 3. On the flip side, acceptance below $55 could send us back down near $53 / $50.

  @PayPalIN @PayPal I don't know where to ask. You only have the option to talk to an AI chat bot, and even after trying 5-6 times, I'm sorry, but I'm not able to make it understand my issue.

  @AskPayPal I've never had a worse CSR experience with any company in my life, than I had with PayPal this week. And my issue is still not resolved, so I will have to muster up enough humanity to deal again with people who are not motivated to help me solve my problem.

  $PYPL - here is what will actually happen. In a very real sense, it is out management's hands: • PayPal Board receives credible unsolicited offer (from Stripe and Advent); Revlon duty kicks in. • Board immediately engages counsel and investment bank. • Board forms a committee to oversee the situation. • Committee has the i-bank suggest who else could bid. • Mid-process, someone strategically leaks the Stripe bid. This creates a new dynamic: given no large $PYPL anchor owner, the shareholder base quickly begins turning over from "long-term owners" to "event-driven / arb." Those new shareholders aren't looking for a long-term compounder, further pressuring the company to seek a takeout path. • Management and an i-bank work up the "stay independent" plan. Unfortunately, the comps are horrible ($FISV & $GPN), making 3rd-party bids hard to beat, even if you prefer to execute independently. • Conduct an initial IOI process to see if alternative bidders might come in higher than $60.50. They will. • Depending on what comes back, may expand outreach to additional bidder groups. Data room and diligence process become formalized. • Offer is going up from $60.50 to $65, then $68 (or whatever). Stripe probably competes in that range. • Board cannot justify the "stay independent" path. • Bank and committee whittle the bidder group down to a small set of finalists. • Seek "best and final" (sometimes more than once!). • Announce a deal anywhere from $60.50 to $70+. • Game over. I'm not saying that PayPal cannot stay independent and public; it could. I am saying it likely won't stay independent and public. If you don't have an anchor owner who can stand up to the dual forces of Revlon + Event-Driven shareholders, the momentum of the "process" takes over and makes it very difficult to say no to a credible offer at a premium. The die is already cast.

  @MendamCaedo @takasiraVT Vroid is one option, but you can rarely get anywhere with that. The point I'm making is that this industry is predatory for newcomers and old timers alike. Particularly in the modeling, art, and rigging departments. People will scam you, hide things in TOS, and just recently threaten to revoke the model entirely without a refund if you even touch AI for one reason or another (including using an AI reference sheet, by the way). There's even a server out there that has decided to just start banning people if they use it on ANY PLATFORM, like some 1984 type ****. Cheap artists can rarely be trusted either, because again- on the off chance you don't read over your agreement with like seven lawyers, they can just decide to take it away because of any slight problem they have with you. And let's not even mention the fact that some people will decide to drag their *** on the commissions until the six month refund period on paypal has expired, then take the money and run, meaning that now you're out several thousand dollars depending on how expensive that commission was.. With all of this in mind, do you see why people are hesitant to turn to artists who are screeching about losing their commissions and turning to sources that won't complain about what they choose to do?

  Daniel - Budai Media 📧 (@thedanielbudai) reported 51 minutes ago

  One of our peptide clients woke up last week to a dead checkout and funds on hold. No warning or email the night before. Just a Stripe shutdown that hit overnight and froze everything. This wasn't bad luck or a compliance mistake on their end. Stripe's own policy FAQ now states they are not accepting RUO peptide merchants. New applications get declined. Existing accounts get reviewed and terminated when the underwriting team catches what's being sold. Stripe, PayPal, and Square all have the same structural problem for this category. They approve accounts fast and underwrite them later. The moment a review catches the product type, the account dies. And industry reports on Mastercard's 2026 BRAM update indicate research peptides are specifically flagged, with fund holds that can run 90 to 180 days after shutdown. Three months of revenue frozen while you're rebuilding from zero. The brands that survive this aren't the ones it doesn't happen to. They're the ones who built the infrastructure knowing it would. The survival setup looks like this: A dedicated high-risk merchant account with an underwriter who explicitly approves peptide merchants, not an aggregator that approves first and asks questions later. A backup gateway already live and tested before the primary goes down. A shutdown becomes a bad day instead of a dead business. A billing descriptor that matches your store name. Chargebacks kept under 1%. Research-only language everywhere on the site. The June 28 Stripe policy change is one wave. There will be more. Build the fallback while your current processor still works. I put together a full payment processing guide specifically for peptide stores covering everything above in detail. Comment "PAYMENTS" and I’ll send it over.

  Justin Newton (@justinwnewton) reported 53 minutes ago

  @tomwanhh The BAGEY approval shows what unlocks the door. When a fund is issued natively on chain, regulators can see the controls directly instead of trusting a wrapper. Your PYUSD example is the same issue. PayPal can only push it everywhere once compliance travels with the token itself.
