  Paypal: We don't give a **** about customers and victims of scams and even criminal online but we will hunt down people that buys Anime products and has a lot of money and will lock it without your consent. :) Paypal is like Ferrari, you don't own ****.

  @vexmlk @PayPal i'm sorry, these are the rules established by the payment systems. You see when you deal with pornography you're dealing with criminals and people who like to submit chargebacks in large quantities Don't draw porn and you wouldn't have these problems.

  @Fite_Dragon The worst part of PayPal is that it assumes you make too much $$ and think it's fraud. Had another artist had this issue last year. Not so great... Hopefully you'll get it back as is?..

  @JoshOO1J @Weeleey6 Problem with PayPal is that some people registered with emails and names that don't match the credentials from payout they have integrated e.g You have Patrick mahoki name email but bank or mpesa has different name John Njuguna

  Israeli Report Alleges European Donation Network Funneled Millions to Hamas A report approved by Israel’s Diaspora Affairs Ministry claims that dozens of Europe-based charities raised millions of dollars for Gaza that allegedly ended up supporting Hamas infrastructure. The report identifies 45 organizations operating in countries including the UK, France, Spain, and the Netherlands, alleging that funds were collected through crowdfunding campaigns, bank transfers, PayPal, and cryptocurrencies. Israeli officials described the alleged funding channels as a major security concern and called on European governments to strengthen financial oversight and crack down on unregulated transfers.

  If PayPal is concerned about AML issues, they should just stop doing business in Kenya and Africa Blocking accounts & retaining funds appears to be a strategic way of cash flow management Resolut does not allow Accounts to be opened by people in Africa @PayPal

  5. Moca's goal with both Moca Pay and Moca POS is to become the PayPal or Stripe of crypto. Think about what that means. Right now, if a business wants to accept crypto, it is complicated. Different chains, different wallets, high fees, slow settlement. Moca removes all of that. The merchant receives crypto instantly, in whatever currency the customer pays with. No need to hold any specific coin. No delays. No chargebacks. No middlemen taking a cut. Businesses can choose which cryptocurrencies they want to accept and manage everything from one dashboard. This is a real-world use case for @THORChain liquidity, being built right now.

  @JoshOO1J I've been using PayPal since 2014 without any issues. Follow their policies, keep your account compliant, and there's usually no reason for it to be limited or frozen

  @StanleyMasinde_ And that’s the big issue with PayPal. The AML rules there are strict. So at some point same thing will happen.

  @echoalexander_ No literally—I'm having my own issue with PayPal right now (not for the same reasons) and they're withholding about 2.3k from me that they froze my account over 🥲 Working on seeing if I can get it resolved, but it just feels ridiculous that they can (apparently) just do that.

  @HatedMoats @AlphaCapital82 Problem is PayPal was a very poorly run business, Novo isn’t it’s just suffering some sort of bizarre narrative cancer. everything negative is discounted at 80% probability, everything positive is discounted at 20% probability. Sentiment is taking VERY long to shift.

  I have never had trouble with PayPal in past so if I accidentally get scammed shouldn't that just be then my fault ? And just let people apply if proven a scam getting money back I think this scam policy stuff has gone way to far atm that's why speaking up about it

  Fallingfloor (@calopup001) reported 38 minutes ago

  @sh0ckth3syst3m Vgen does that because if it happens enough times paypal will charge them more to do business. "Problem playforms" like porn already have high transaction rates from people trying to claim porn they bought was fraud. Likewise, vgen will be punished if every scammer they let on the platform got a chargeback

  @JoshOO1J @keemkim14 Problem is.. A big % of Kenyans who use PayPal are either scamming, or laundering

  Ramp just raised $750M at a $44B valuation, which is roughly 44x their current revenue. I'm impressed by the level of conviction Ramp has been able to instill in the investors that have poured roughly $3B into the company since 2019, including, most recently, the Ontario Teachers' Pension Plan. Personally, I'm not sure I get it. I admire Ramp. It's a super smart company that has a genuinely strong handle on AI and is growing and shipping product extremely fast, but $44B? That's more than PayPal, which currently has a market cap of $38B on $32B in revenue. "Fine," you might say. "PayPal is an absolute mess. Ramp should be worth more than it." OK, what about Fifth Third? It has almost $300B in assets and generated $9B in revenue last year (good for $2.5B in profit). Its market cap is currently the same as Ramp's valuation. "Yes," you acknowledge. "Fifth Third is a better-run company than PayPal, but it's a bank. It's slow. Looking forward, its growth trajectory is very modest. Ramp's growth potential makes it a much better bet." So, what about Affirm? Affirm is just as smart as Ramp. It has just as strong a handle on AI as Ramp. It's profitable and on track to generate more than $4B in revenue this year, which would be a 33% increase year-over-year. Affirm's market cap is currently $22B, half of what Ramp was just valued at. That just doesn't seem correct. Something is being mispriced and my hunch is that it's Ramp. But we won't know that until it goes public, if it ever does.

  PayPal yesterday decided that an online hobby store I buy from all the time was somehow a problem and refused the transaction. I have no idea why.

  @manifestosantoz @MaxwellMbae @JoshOO1J The few people we know that have used it still got their accounts banned. Y’all should settle your issues with PayPal, leave Nigeria out of it.

  @butakha_ @Everything2Win @DismasWaTabu I understand, but that is not Paypal's problem. The problem is the international payment system. I am sure they would get more customers and process even more transactions which would mean even more profits if they relaxed the rules. But that would mean death for them, check how much Binance was fined for breaking similar rules.

  @MaxwellMbae @JoshOO1J PayPal are the worst scummers we have if not it should allow people to withdraw money then they can completely shut down all the account but freezing people's money is not right.

  How do strangers, agents, communities, or businesses create spendable obligations between each other without needing a bank, card network, PayPal, Stripe, or centralized balance sheet to decide who is allowed to issue value and who must accept it?
