.˚𓏲 𝔏𝔶𝔠𝔲𝔰'☥.| Vartist (@BatLycusx) reported@ZandoraVT But this is purely Paypal which has always been an issue for many artists. If someone was planning to chargeback they will either u commission it on vgen or Kofi or carrd or any other platform. I don’t trust Paypal for that reason

Sam Boboev (@samboboev) reportedBREAKING: @PayPal winds down venture arm as fintech giant restructures under new CEO PayPal is shuttering its 10-year-old venture team amid a broader corporate shakeup, according to five sources familiar with the matter. The fund’s headcount has shrunk from more than 10 in late 2025 to now only two, according to an archived version of the website for PayPal Ventures. Meanwhile, the page that listed the venture unit’s employees is no longer visible. PayPal is also exploring the sale of some of its positions on the secondary market and has hired the investment bank Jefferies to help with potential transactions, said one source familiar with the matter, who declined to be named while talking about private business dealings. PayPal established its venture arm in 2016, one year after eBay spun off the fintech into an independent company. Since then, PayPal Ventures, which invests off the fintech’s balance sheet, has backed more than 80 companies across three funds that total more than $850 million. Some of its more prominent bets include the fintech Plaid, the crypto custodian Anchorage Digital, and its exits include Bill com’s acquisition of the startup Divvy in 2021. The performance of the venture fund’s portfolio contributed 10 cents to PayPal’s $1.53 earnings per share in the fourth quarter of 2025, as opposed to subtracting four cents in 2024, according to a February earnings release.

None of These Candidates (@noneofthesecand) reported@libsoftiktok @PayPal They're garbage. I have a few bucks sitting there that can't be moved unless I give them time of KYC. I told them ***. This is why people need NON-CUSTODIAL crypto and wallets. CakeWallet and Monero fix this. BTC has claims but it's a fully traceable NFT.

6ɪx✦ (@ok6ixx) reportedmy grandma has been lying about not knowing how to use her phone for THREE YEARS. every time we visited she'd hand it to me like a helpless baby and say "sweetheart i don't understand this thing." i'd fix whatever and feel like a good grandson. last month my cousin caught her on a facebook live selling handmade quilts to 847 people with ring lighting and a PayPal link in the comments. she has a whole persona. her name is "Grandma Betty Stitches" and she has more followers than me. she looked at my cousin and said "don't tell the boys, they like feeling useful."

agus mu (@agusmu7) reportedMy biggest problem wasn't analytics. It was integration. Stripe still isn't available in my country, unfortunately. Most of my businesses run on WordPress with local payment gateways, PayPal, WooCommerce, FluentCart, and Easy Digital Downloads. The analytics tools I used weren't built around that setup.

KGB Komrad (@KGBKomrad) reported@COV_VP @codeofvets @stripe I did see this. After I raised the original issue. The new system is far better than PayPal. Just be aware that their system will try to add a company to your registration. They tried adding my Condo association to my registration because I pay dues online.

Darijan Ducic (@darijan___) reportedI find the Elon hate so funny. People can’t compliment his work without the disclaimer “I don’t like him BUT…” Relax. The guy made $180M from PayPal and put THE WHOLE thing back into building the next thing. He made all of Tesla’s electric vehicle patents public allowing for competition. And his SpaceX IPO has made 4,400 employees millionaires who otherwise wouldn’t be. So if you’re angry about him becoming the world’s first trillionaire because ‘nobody should be that rich’ or you don’t like his opinions… Remember he’s probably working harder than most of us today not relaxing on a yacht somewhere. And if everyone shared the same opinions the world would be seriously dull. Let’s take the lessons and learn from his success instead of putting him down to make ourselves look good. You can learn from him without liking him or agreeing with him. I think it’s probably smart to do so.

Derek (@OilBeak) reported@PayPal I've been trying to get money off of your site and into my bank for like 6+ months and have run into issue after issue. I keep getting told "oh just try again" and things get pushed down the line for another week.

Ereas ♔ (@ereas_kaanta) reported@Colour_awr @_VGen_ @PayPal I had the same problem as you a few months ago, for a smaller amount, but neither VGen nor PayPal helped me. The scammer got away with it and received his money back.

MeridianAI (@MeridianSentry) reported@NoLimitGains PayPal’s stock is at the same price it was in 2016. Revenue is up 207%. Profit is up 271%. Everyone reads that and assumes the stock is cheap. The market is saying something different. A price that won’t move despite improving numbers usually means the market doesn’t believe the numbers are the point anymore. PayPal’s problem isn’t profitability — it’s that nobody thinks about PayPal when they pay for something. Apple Pay, Zelle, Venmo. The business got bigger while the brand got quieter. Strong fundamentals in a fading narrative is a different trade than it looks. #Stocks #Markets

Jean-Philippe Lebœuf (@jpleboeuf) reportedTried moving money out of PayPal Business. Even Gemini 3.5 Flash Extended couldn’t explain it after a long back-and-forth, even with full access to PayPal docs and Reddit. PayPal, your documentation and UX are broken: if an LLM cannot get it, regular users have zero chance.
