  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

  @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.

  $HPNN #Digitalage NFA 1. This is not disclosure. It’s marketing copy. Nothing in that text is: filed with OTC Markets filed with the SEC independently verified audited supported by financials supported by a functioning platform supported by revenue supported by a live product It is storytelling, not reporting. 2. The entire piece is built to sound like inevitability. The structure is classic: Start with a grievance (“YouTube takes 45%”) Introduce a villain (“landlord platforms”) Introduce a crisis (“AI broke everything”) Introduce a savior (“Digitalage is the compliance layer”) Introduce urgency (“60‑day clock”) Introduce exclusivity (“handpicked creators only”) Introduce authority (“patents filed”) Introduce inevitability (“the ambiguity is ending”) This is textbook venture‑style positioning, not an operational fact. 3. The claims collapse under basic evidentiary pressure. “Android closed testing” No APK. No Play Store listing. No developer console evidence. No screenshots. No testers confirming access. “iOS TestFlight internal testing” No build number. No TestFlight link. No Apple developer listing. No external testers. “$500 wired within 7 business days” No proof of payout. No ledger. No creator confirming receipt. No funding source disclosed. “85% of gross subscription revenue”. There is no subscription system. No pricing tiers. No billing engine. No merchant account. No Stripe/Adyen/PayPal integration. No revenue to split. “50% of net ad revenue, real-time reporting” There is no ad inventory. No ad server. No DSP. No SSP. No advertisers. No dashboard. “SHA‑256 provenance at creation” There is no ingest pipeline. No hashing service. No chain‑of‑custody system. No verification engine. No public demo. “Patents filed” Provisional patents = unexamined, unvalidated, unenforceable drafts. Anyone can file one for $60. One patent has been filed for direct review. An 18-24 month process. “Infrastructure is running.” There is no evidence of infrastructure. No uptime logs. No architecture diagrams. No API endpoints. No SDK. No documentation. No partners. “Public reporting obligation” There is no such obligation. OTC Markets does not require milestone reporting. This is invented language.was 4. The entire piece is written to distract from one fact: There is still no platform. Not a beta. Not a prototype. Not a demo. Not a screenshot. Not a creator using it. Not a single piece of content published through it. Nothing. 5. The “60‑day clock” is a psychological device, not an operational timeline. It creates: urgency inevitability pressure narrative momentum But it is not tied to any verifiable deliverable. There is no penalty for missing it. There is no oversight. There is no enforcement. There is no filing requirement. It is marketing theater. 6. The entire piece is designed to look like a whitepaper — but it’s a pitch. A real infrastructure company would show: architecture diagrams APIs SDKs uptime logs audits partners customers revenue filings This shows none of that. It shows words. Lots of them. 7. The fatal flaw Everything in this document assumes Digitalage already exists. But the market, the filings, the tape, the creators, and the evidence all show the same thing: There is no product. There is no infrastructure. There is no revenue. There is no execution.

  @AskPayPal I have to get an sms everytime I login via your app. Even though I’ve passkey & Face ID It’s not just payments 🤯 The payments via #PayPal+ debit card are even more frustrating since there’s a 3 step thing going on 😭 I can’t remove this via app or log online - help

  @SiliconSalvage My only reason for using Adobe is with their discounts. Without those, I am not bothering with $60/month. For several years they've made broken products. PayPal is quickly becoming a relic in light of crypto, BNPL, but will still stick around for now. AI chats replaced pinterest

  I don’t know who’s playing games for America. I don’t know who owns PayPal, but I’m calling Attorney General and it’s not money. I’m after it’s your ******* freedom. If it’s somebody outside of the United States, I don’t have a problem joining the military and blowing them off the map America is in a terrible place and until people stand up and let this injustice end then we are going to continue to fall.

  @DismasWaTabu We need to audit, locally costs about 20k, a lot. He agrees, gets the money later in the month, not immediately. What would happen to a person who took a loan for a project? PayPal, fix your stuff. You run guys out of business,

  @Kaichaikat @vexmlk @PayPal I dont know what PayPal business account does or does not do... i was referring to regist3ring an LLC, having a tax i.d. and issuing invoices directly for commissions and not utilizing PayPal 'Traditional' people would say but it provides you legitimacy and legal records (hell of a lot less likely to worry about issues like this using verified, insured and nearly universally accepted and preffered vendors)

  Kenya is on FATF Greylist. We can blame Paypal all we want, but our issues starts with the regime that has allowed wash wash monies into the system. Till we are out of that list, international Financial firms will always have a keen look of Kenyans finances

  @KrzyDays @vexmlk @PayPal Asking and mentioning because she said the issue they had was 2023 and I am only now hearing about these bans for this specific reason. I dont know what the policy was I just got here but that might be why this option wasnt one though everyone says it like its so obvious.

  @ntvkenya Do not use Paypal they have always been the most eager to work on behalf of the American government. They were among the first to shut down payments to Wikileaks when they exposed US war crimes.

  make sure you're actually allowed to use their money so you don't bring the artists you commissioned trouble. having chargebacks filed against them could make them lose their entire paypal acc if they can't pay it back. lots of artists here do comms as their main source of income

  The hardest part of agentic commerce isn't the payment. It's the trust. At Consensus in Miami, our VP & Head of BD @lei_lei0904 joined @csuitepodcast to break down what it actually takes to let AI agents transact safely. ▷ Agentic commerce is already here: x402 has crossed 100M transactions, and the space went from ~20 companies in 2024 to 500+ today, with Google, Stripe, PayPal, Amazon and Shopify all moving in. ▷ Trust can't be an afterthought: compliance and security have to be built in from day one, at the infrastructure level. That's what Agent Passport does, spend within the limits you set, with a kill switch you control. ▷ Payments have to move at machine speed: agent transactions are often API calls worth cents, where traditional rails charging 3% simply break. Building the trust layer for the agent economy. 🪁

  @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.
