  PayPal tried to buy Stripe in 2013. Stripe said NO. 13 years later: Stripe is offering $53 billion for PayPal. Here’s the timeline that still feels unreal: 2013: Stripe is 3 years old. Raised $40M. PayPal (still owned by eBay) makes a bid. John Collison’s pitch to the PayPal founders: “Payments on the internet are totally broken.” They get it. The company doesn’t. Deal dies. 2014: PayPal buys Braintree for $800M instead (and gets Venmo as a freebie). Stripe does $7B in volume and hits a $1.75B valuation. Next decade Stripe volume compounds at 70% a year. Braintree at 43%. Last year alone: Stripe → $1.9 trillion Braintree → $600 billion 2026: Stripe hits a $159B secondary valuation. Then teams up with Advent and drops a $53B offer for PayPal. 50/50 ownership. $50B in bank financing already committed. The company that once looked too small is now trying to buy the one that was too big to fail. Internet moves fast. Pride moves slower.

  @Strava I’m having a hell of a time renewing my subscription (originally through Apple subscriptions, expired July 8), possibly because I’m having an iPhone & debit card issue?? But it won’t let me add Apple Card, Amex, PayPal or other pymts either… can you help?

  @SignalLay It's not issue of international client. All the methods like paypal, Payooner, bank transfer does not work due restrictions imposed on them. There are some other ways but it's too risky , payment can be hold or some legal matter. So it's better to pass.

  A shopping plugin quietly rewrites who gets paid at checkout. The retailer pays a commission it didn't owe. The creator who drove the sale gets nothing. That's the kind of thing my guest this week on Won't Fix, @bgedelman, finds and exposes. He read the code for Phia, who called it a recent bug; he collaborated with MegaLag on the Honey/PayPal plugin scandal. Ben has been doing this kind of research since 2001. We talked about a bunch of topics, including the story he thinks is being ignored: AppLovin. He decompiled ~600,000 lines of obfuscated code and has some questions for carriers and AppLovin about their consent/installation practices. AppLovin has said that every install has explicit user consent.

  About Me I am making this my permanent pinned post as i am tired of answering the same questions over and over again from stupid losers! I am 45 yrs old, and i am from Kent in England, i have a chronic illness, but i show up every day for my page and realm. I mostly sell content such as pics, videos and voice notes for feet, arse, boobs and armpits, mother to good pups & also sell physical items such as worn *******, socks and trainers. I do NOT do live cam work, video or voice calls so don't ask. No i will not send you any type of verification video, i had to upload my Government Issued ID for my Throne, Youpay and Loyal Fans accounts I am as real as it gets, i rarely do my hair and make up as i dont sit around waiting for you losers to msg so if i have done my hair and make up show some appreciation in cash. I do NOT answer dm's that start with "hi" or "hey beautiful" or anything else other than "Sent my Queen" with my £25 tribute attached, no i don't care if you are "buying content" my tribute is non negotiable if you dont want to pay tribute or cant afford it then stay out my dm's i don't need your dusty *** $5 disrespect! I have fully updated my Throne with different sections and levels of cash amounts and physical gifts for all budgets from a £15 coffee send to a new iphone so there is no excuse. No i do not accept gift cards from new senders they are reserved for loyal senders who have sent at least £1000 in the past. All ATM's, Wallets, Silent senders and Paypigs are welcome to gift and run if they wish, please note i will NOT now or ever pay any fees of any type for anything go scam someone else. There will be a full menu and price list available in the near future of what i offer this will be posted and added to my highlights feel free to download and keep it for future reference. All my payment methods are available in the linktree in my bio, these are the only methods i accept, Cashapp, Apple pay, Venmo and Chime are not available in the UK please do not ask for Paypal it is a sore subject right now i am trying to fix it! I do not accept any type of crypto so stop asking. All msgs stay in X dm's until i feel comfortable with you so no i will not go to snapchat, telegram or anywhere else, you will get blocked. If i block you for any reason then you are gone permanently, there is no unblock fee because there is no coming back i dont tolerate disrespect for any amount of money no matter who you are.

  Now this makes a lot more sense. A few days ago we found a group of fiat tokens quietly sitting on Keeta mainnet. At the time they didn’t make a whole lot of sense. Today they do. Keeta just announced its partnership with LayerZero to bring tokenized commercial bank money to major blockchains. So what does that actually mean? Think of Keeta as the place where regulated bank deposits become tokenized digital dollars, euros, pounds, yen, etc. Those are the fiat tokens we found on-chain. They’re backed 1:1 by commercial bank deposits through Bivo and are built for institutions, not retail. LayerZero is the interoperability protocol that connects many of the largest blockchains together. It’s already used by companies and protocols like PayPal and Ondo. Instead of Keeta building connections to every blockchain individually, LayerZero lets those regulated assets move across Ethereum, Solana, Base, and many other chains through a single interoperability layer. Here’s an example. Imagine a business deposits $10 million with a participating bank. Keeta tokenizes that deposit into regulated digital dollars. Using LayerZero, those dollars can move to Ethereum for settlement, Solana for payments, Base for another application, and then be redeemed back into bank deposits when needed. The institution doesn’t have to care which blockchain the other side is using. That’s why this announcement is a big deal. The fiat assets we found on-chain now have a clear purpose. The GitHub updates we’ve been seeing suddenly make a lot more sense. And if institutions choose Keeta to issue and settle tokenized commercial bank money, LayerZero gives those assets access to one of the largest cross-chain ecosystems in crypto. That has the potential to bring significantly more institutional activity and value onto the Keeta network than if it operated in isolation. This is exactly why I spend so much time watching GitHub and on-chain activity. Sometimes the blockchain tells the story before the press release does. @KeetaNetwork $KTA @LayerZero_Core

  Max Levchin explains why B-players hire C-players The co-founder of PayPal and Affirm reflects on the famous Steve Jobs insight that A-players hire A-players, and B-players hire C-players: “It’s profoundly true. But there should be an asterisk explaining why this is true. And the reason for this is fear.” A-players love working with other A-players because they know it will make them better. They want other A-players who challenge them and will tell them when their work isn’t good. Most B-players are net positive too, but as Max argues, some are fearful and will say: “If I have too many B-players or A-players around, I will look terrible and it’ll be very obvious that I’m just not that good. So the way to fix this is for me to become a manager and hire a bunch of people who aren’t very good at all so that I’ll look like the tallest mushroom.” Max continues: “That is the real danger of B-players. Having people who are perfectly willing to do good work day-in and day-out is not the worst thing in the world. There’s plenty of things that A-players will turn their nose from because it’s just not that challenging. B-players are very good for that [type of work]. And a lot of B-players will over time grind their way to being A-players, so you’re investing in their future and they know it, and that’s also positive. But B-players who have fear of being found out are the ones you have to watch out for.” Source: @HarryStebbings @20vcFund (Feb 2025)

  I’ve held for some time that PayPal is an ideally situated asset for a number of payments and fintech companies interested in adding to their portfolio. The Stripe/Advent offer substantiated this but at far too low a price. The board should reject and offer below $80 a share for PayPal. Unique stablecoin asset in a market growing at >60% p.a, huge network of users and growing payments, solid financials and no balance sheet problems to take on. My bet is that Stripe is not the last bidder in the next few months.

  @ItsLulu_7 you can talk to anyone on earth in as near to real time as physics can currently take us, obesity and laziness are magnitudes more of a problem than starvation , with paypal you can pay for things in a couple of clicks and with amazon they can arrive at your home the next day.

  PayPal just won’t let you close it if you have an open investigation going on until the issue is resolved. Just make sure that you don’t have any credit card data left on their site. Or any debit information. Delete all of it. Even if your credit card company or bank has shut down those cards. Do not give them anymore fuel to add to their fire.

  Let me be honest, i kind of like Afternic's user dashboard (or got used to it) decided to change the dashboard on DomainLiq in that perspective. i am sure existing users will not have difficulty to adapt it. Now its much easier to do bulk operations. During this 2 days you might encounter some errors/sitedowns it's because of i keep editing/changing. I also want to be clear, i've created DomainLiq to liquidate my own portfolio, it was a personal need, these days you might see i am actively using it because that was my ultimate intention. Until now i didn't make any penny from other users because it wasn't my core intention. Yes i am providing free usage of the platform but honestly if you can connect your stripe and usdc (crypto wallet) sell your domains under domainliq's escrow system there is a platform fee for over $50 transactions (%5) for below $50 there is a flat $2 fee. This fee is because i'm providing sellers a secure escrow system. On the other hand i still provide transfer service for your free Paypal and Wise transactions (this is totally between sellers and buyers) i highly dont recommend you to buy a domain from a seller that you dont know. Some sellers proven themselves and they granted "trusted seller" badge. if a domain couldnt get verified that domain cant get a payment method, this is the least i can do the protect the both sides. if you are using or willing to use the platform you are more than welcome to DM me for your concerns, suggestions and feedback. You may not like me, which is normal but i ensure this "DomainLiq" is something you will like if you start to use. Already so many sellers experienced sales and keep using this makes me proud of what i've created. The support of @uzakyolkaptani is very important, he is an experienced website designer, his suggestions and feedbacks moved me this far. one special thanks to @Name__Groove his productive feedback woken me up for to distinguish between liquidation and retail sales. i will not use ai to correct the grammar, **** it ! Best of luck to builders who are building useful stuff to be helpful for the domain community to grow. Cheers
