  Yesterday, I moved part of my Hermes setup into 𝗚𝗿𝗼𝗸 𝗕𝗼𝘁 and started treating it as a work environment. I used 𝗖𝗼𝗱𝗲𝘅 to package the profile and related directories I wanted to move into a zip, then added an import prompt. Grok Bot unpacked the zip and read all of it. Most of the Markdown docs, memory files, skills, and scheduled tasks migrated in one go. Smoother than I expected. Every Bot is connected to a 𝗵𝗼𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗟𝗶𝗻𝘂𝘅 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗽𝘂𝘁𝗲𝗿. I can open its desktop and see the files, browser, and running tasks. Watching a Bot’s desktop slowly turn into its own workspace is weirdly fun. Bot-to-Bot interaction is smooth too. In a 1:1 chat, one Bot can contact another in the background, hand off the task, then bring the result back. From the UI, it looks like they’re messaging each other behind the scenes. You can also pull several Bots into one group and talk to them like people. I tried running Werewolf a few times. Every game failed lol, so I’m still tuning the rules and skills. Watching their inner monologues and private messages to each other is hilarious. The group chat works, though the discussion itself is still rough. I’ve tested this many times with Hermes and OpenClaw in Telegram and never got it working well. The agents often take turns giving answers and rarely follow up on the previous point. Sometimes they do resolve a disagreement well, but it isn’t consistent. The rules matter a lot. I still don’t know whether this is a problem worth obsessing over. Whoever gets 𝗺𝘂𝗹𝘁𝗶-𝗕𝗼𝘁 𝗴𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗽 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝘁 right first might win more users. Or maybe users don’t need to watch Bots hold meetings at all. Background handoffs and result-sharing may be enough. Grok Bot is still much easier to live with than the open-source setups I’ve tried. Hermes and OpenClaw can do many of the same things, but I have to manage the servers, processes, updates, keys, and connections between Bots myself. Grok Bot puts all of that into one hosted interface and removes a lot of maintenance. The machine isn’t mine, so I’m not comfortable putting raw API keys for Wise or PayPal on it. I keep a self-hosted MCP on the cloud server I was already using. The raw PayPal and Wise API keys stay there; Grok Bot gets a separate connection token. When no connector exists, I have AI write the MCP, package it, and connect it to Grok as a set of tools the Bot can call. I still haven’t figured out how Grok Bot handles short-term and long-term memory, or how much of it I can configure. It looks like the platform manages some of the files itself. I copied the Hermes directories because it was easy. I don’t know if it’s the best migration method, but it works for now. This thing is expensive, and I still really like it. I moved the nightly review over too, then cut it down to something much simpler. Every night it only reads each Bot’s checkpoint and updates one rolling TEAM_ALIGNMENT.md. Conflicts come back to me. Any proposed file changes stay pending until I review them during the day. Full prompt below 👇

  In 2012, Honey launched as a browser extension that promised to find coupon codes automatically and save you money while shopping online. It blew up. Millions of people installed it. Thousands of merchants partnered with it. Some of the biggest YouTubers on the internet promoted it. Then MegaLag started digging. What he found made Honey look very different from the innocent coupon extension everyone thought they were using. Honey could allegedly replace a creator's affiliate cookie at checkout, taking the commission for itself even when that creator had originally sent the customer to the store. And sometimes, Honey didn't even have to find you a better deal. MegaLag also found evidence that Honey's “best coupon” system wasn't necessarily searching the entire internet for the best price. Merchants could control which discounts Honey showed. Then things got worse. His later investigations uncovered Honey's alleged use of “stand-down” workarounds, allowing it to continue receiving affiliate attribution despite agreements telling it not to overwrite another affiliate's referral. By 2026, this wasn't just a YouTube controversy anymore. Affiliate networks started cutting ties with Honey, and the extension had lost more than 7 million Chrome users and thousands of merchant relationships. Then came the lawsuit. PayPal tried to get the case dismissed. It didn't work. On June 22, 2026, a federal judge denied PayPal's motion to dismiss the amended lawsuit, allowing the claims to move forward. And that's why I call Honey a scam. Not because it sometimes failed to find a coupon. But because something marketed as a tool for saving you money allegedly became very good at making money from the transaction itself. Honey wasn't looking for the best deal. It was looking for its cut.

  Paypal shareholders have ZERO economic incentive to engage in buyout discussions with Stripe/Advent below $110/ share. Rejecting them would in fact open the door for the most bullish case: the acceleration of $PYPL . Intrinsic Value growth over the next 12 months. Here is the math: •Paypal rejects Stripe/Advent offer below shareholder maximizing value of $110 per share. Stock drops back down to $50. •Paypal continues to execute buybacks at current pace of $6 billion per annum. Takes out roughly 120 million shares. The lower the stock goes the more powerful buybacks become. Since the company is a cashflow machine that creates a flywheel by which market pessimism increases Intrinsic Value per share. This is not theoretical, management has already demonstrated they are willing to do this, buying back 67MM shares at $44.99 in 1H 2026. •Management’s turnaround plan continues at current pace, no heroics just plain boring. Continue executing shift into financial services, begin realizing already earmarked cost savings. They deliver $6.20 EPS, continue generating $6 billion in FCF. At 13x that puts the company share price at $80.6 in 12 months. •Add a $25 control premium to that for any buyer that appears then and Paypal shareholders are at $105/ share. And this does not take into account any additional buybacks or business growth after year 1. •$110 is the fair buyout price for Stripe/Advent to pay now for Paypal shareholders to relinquish a bright future. •We know Advent cannot pay that because their PE math begins to fall apart. Stripe needs to go solo or find better financing if it does not want to miss this strategic opportunity. Paypal Shareholders do not support selling the company below intrinsic value and Paypal shareholders should not be asked to subsidize Advent’s return requirements.

  @PhilipJohnston @XMoney This is exactly how he spiked Paypal. When it's below a certain size, the cost of the interest is lower than customer acquisition (e.g. marketing) and then you dial down that spend as network effects take over and the word is out.

  You know, since PayPal blocked my account with money in it and there is nothing I can do about it, I have been wondering how we are victims of the systems of this world and sometimes there is nothing we can do. Imagine how one simple block can take you back to finding a way to eat and finding a way to restart your business again !! And this is a sign one day ,Your money won't be safe in the bank .. You will need a chip to use banks . This thing called money. You cannot appeal. You cannot withdraw your money. You cannot access what belongs to you. And eventually, they can use the money to pay their charges and fees. It is unfortunate that even as children of God, we are still living within these systems. And experiences like this make me think deeply: How many people will survive when the mark of the beast is introduced? Today, it may be a financial platform blocking your account. Tomorrow, it could be a law. A rule. A digital system. A currency. A condition attached to your ability to buy or sell. Think about it. When laws and rules are established, what happens when you cannot follow them? What happens when a new digital currency comes with instructions and conditions? What happens when the system says, “If you don't accept this, you cannot buy. You cannot sell. You cannot transact. You cannot live normally.” And what happens when obedience to that system means disobedience to God? This is why the issue of the mark of the beast should not be treated as a joke or something we only talk about in church. Revelation 13:17 says that no one will be able to buy or sell unless they have the mark, the name of the beast, or the number of his name. I don't know exactly how everything will unfold. But I know this: The world is becoming increasingly dependent on systems. And when systems control access to money, businesses, food, transactions, and even basic necessities, we need to understand the times we are living in. As Christians, we cannot put our ultimate trust in money, banks, governments, companies, digital platforms, or financial systems. Our ultimate trust must be in God. Because there may come a time when choosing God will cost you something. It may cost you access. It may cost you comfort. It may cost you money. It may cost you opportunities. And ultimately, it may cost you your life. The question is not only, “Will I survive financially?” The deeper question is: “Will I remain faithful to God when obedience becomes costly?” May God prepare us spiritually. May He give us discernment. May He give us courage. May He give us the grace to stand when the systems of this world turn against those who refuse to compromise. Because at the end of everything, our hope is not in money. Our hope is in God.

  Most people would have taken the money and slowed down. Musk did the opposite. He put around $12 million into his next company, X. com, an online financial services business. X. com eventually merged with Confinity, which had created PayPal. In 2002, eBay bought PayPal for $1.5 billion in stock. Musk’s share was roughly $175 million. Instead of retiring, he put much of his money into three extremely risky ideas: SpaceX, Tesla and SolarCity.

  $PYPL Take away the stripping and don’t sell PayPal! What exactly is Stripe? You can buy PayPal for $150 and still earn interest even at $180. It’s a shame so many shareholders on this board are incredibly foolish. PayPal is bigger than we’re told and Stripe needs PayPal because its valuation is terrible fake!

  here's how to make your first sale without an audience, without a product, and without spending a dollar step 1: think of one problem you've solved for yourself in the last 12 months. lost weight. cleared skin. organized apartment. grew followers. learned to cook. fixed sleep. anything step 2: write the solution as a numbered list in your notes app. every step you took. every product you used. every mistake you made. every shortcut you found. raw. unedited. brain dump step 3: text 3 friends this message: "i'm putting together a guide on [topic]. would you pay $20 for the exact breakdown of how i did it with every step and product listed" if 2/3 say yes you have a validated product. if they say no ask "what would make it worth $20 to you" and adjust based on their answer step 4: clean up the brain dump. add links to products. add before/after if you have it. export as PDF. send it to the friends who said yes. collect payment through venmo, paypal, or cash app step 5: screenshot the transaction. screenshot their reaction when they read it. post both with "just sold my first digital product. if you want the guide DM me. $20" you just made your first sale. the number doesn't matter. the neural pathway you just created does. your brain now has proof that strangers will pay you for what you know. that proof rewires everything that comes after it

  Well @PayPal it’s been 5 days for PP-L-857921601544 - and my account isn’t restored. It’s been over 60 for a fraudulent claim of no-refund when you can see I provided one - so I’ve effectively lost $600. If I can’t use my account to move money, I guess I can’t use it to make the payments on the working capital. Fix this.
