FindleysFinance (@FindleysFinance) reportedI'm a $PYPL bear. However, $PYPL does look cheap today. On a 5 year DCF, if Paypal can achieve: - Earnings Growth of 4% - Growth Decay of 5% - P/E of 10 - Discount Rate of 10% - Annual share repurchase of 4.77% Then the business could realistically return a 14% CAGR to share price. The question isn't whether the business is cheap or not, rather, is it a cigar butt, or a slow compounder?

Dogwidahat. I Follow If you Love God and Freedom (@dogwidahat) reported@ProtonSupport Let me explain something that we that buy these Proton and like software do not find out until it doesn't work. Support and its protocal and efficiency are key. When they pull up my file it should have everything from what I purchased to how much was paid and what is left on the subscription. Ai can work but has limitations. When it is doing what only people should do it cost the people who buy your product too much time. Proton Ai auto-charged me through PayPal it wasn’t a person. No signature no box was clicked nothing. When I got a hold of PayPal they saw right away I was charged for something I already had. Your ai didn’t catch that. When PayPal connected with proton to talk about this they may have met ai too. Now both my email and VPN have been blocked. Why block my email? I use it daily. Its been a week now and no email or phone call from Proton. I must have 20 hours into this at this point. 20 X $50.00 - $1000.00 for a $100 dollars left in a software contract that Proton is blocking. Do you see where the cost of dealing with this is not worth the head ache? Its been almost a week and I cannot get into my email because you bl;ocked it to? Both services I have paid for through April 2027 and you are blocking them? Who does that? I am likely speaking for hundreds that have similar issues with this or other products where a device software can become non functional. It was maybe an outside intruder that got through. I don’t knopw bjut don’t block something that is working and paid for ever. That is piss poor busioness and causes peoiple to thionk twice before purchssing your product. If it weas ai that did it, its still on youand the momney ai saved you that now is working against you. My account is a Pay Pal account that has had both paid up services now blocked. I do not know how many are blocked but look at them and undue the ones that are paid and then Proton email will work and you can get a hold of me through that.

Aika Velho (@StradegyMonkey) reportedThis is the launcher, where is WhatsApp as Skype, which they try to move to where Brave/Multiscape is by claiming that I have no proof of a webclient (to play Multiscape with a web browser, Brave being an example of a web browser) mentioned only in a YouTube video that mentions the domain name I edited years ago to Rune-Server thread's (15th Century, which was the Multiscape thread mentioning Jami as the owner and "we" referring to Ari and Jami, while these manipulators claim it refers to Joni and Jami) reply and that the owner would be Joni (without any other proof that it was Jami's pseudonym than Rune-Server mentioning Jami as the owner) and thus forcing me to move Brave/Multiscape next to RuneScape as my projects/interests that I don't have a proof of like Multiscape 317 with a webclient was owned by Joni Arola (it wasn't according to Rune-Server, unless you think "we" refers to Joni and Jami instead of Ari, whose PayPal link was posted on Multiscape forums without the link showing Ari's name, and Jami) instead of me, Jami. Even if they have no proof of lying, they claim that if I tried to claim that Ari and Jami (me) were the Multiscape team and that Joni mentioned in the YouTube video was my pseudonym, it could be understood as a lie, because the claim that Joni was my pseudonym wouldn't have been made when the YouTube video of the webclient was made but in 2026, meaning that Multiscape was owned by Joni until 2026 as Jami wasn't mentioned in the YouTube video but only on Rune-Server, where the link mentioned in the YouTube video's description was edited to a reply without the date of edit being shown implying it could be done way after the YouTube video, even if the edit wasn't recent, and not true as the video was about a RSPS owned by Joni implying that it wasn't the same RSPS as the one advertised on Rune-Server and editing its link to Rune-Server could be a lie to claim they was the same RSPS, i.e. Multiscape would be linked to Brave in 2026, not earlier. This means WhatsApp as Skype would be the first app there's a proof of, the last one being TomTom and thus the order would start with TomTom app meaning that it starts in my best friend TomTom's place in 2023 and ends with my mom as WhatsApp contact in 2026 instead of starting with Multiscape webclient in 2010 and ending with TomTom in 2026 like it all was a lie started in 2023 instead of truth between from 2007 (Camera app was linked with Bitcoin, because I received a video camera with a microSD card as a Christmas present in 2007, while Bitcoin was 2011 or 2012, which is why Camera isn't before Multiscape webclient in 2010). Do you see the manipulation, @grok? The Rune-Server thread that mentions the link of Multiscape forums the YouTube video not posted by Jami but what mentions Joni as the owner mentions in its description mentions Jami as the owner. The Rune-Server mentioning Jami as the owner is as much truth as the YouTube video mentioning Joni as the owner in the end credits. Neither can be proven wrong. The edit to the reply wasn't recent, meaning there's no proof that it wasn't made when the RSPS was ran by Jami. Thus, objectively speaking, Jami and Joni were both owners of the same RSPS. It would be wrong to claim that Jami wasn't one of the owners of Multiscape 317 with a webclient.

Gami Capital (@Gami_Capital) reportedIs Circle Actually in Trouble? Our Read on the OUSD Launch On June 30th, while Jeremy Allaire was on stage at Goldman Sachs' Digital Assets conference in London talking about "the future of money," Open Standard announced the launch of OUSD, a dollar stablecoin backed by 149 partners. Two days later, Circle's stock ($CRCL) dropped 18% in a single session, now down roughly 76% from its June 2025 high. Does that mean Circle is done for? Here's our read, in six points, including Jeremy Allaire's direct response. 1. Circle's paradox: usage is up, margins are collapsing USDC has never been doing better: roughly $77 billion in circulation, up nearly 20% since the IPO. The problem is that Circle's revenue has only grown 5.5% over the same period, and net margin has collapsed over three quarters, falling from 29% to 8%. The explanation fits in one line: roughly 94% of Circle's revenue comes from interest earned on reserves (mostly T-bills). The market isn't pricing USDC usage, it's pricing Circle's ability to monetize that usage. And that ability is eroding: growing revenue-sharing with distributors (Coinbase chief among them), Binance suspending services in Europe over a missing MiCA license (after Circle had paid for USDC's distribution on the platform), and removal from several Russell Growth indexes in late June. The timing of OUSD couldn't be worse. 2. OUSD: the issuer model, redistributed to the ecosystem Open Standard has assembled a rare lineup: Visa, Mastercard, BlackRock, BNY Mellon, Google, Stripe and Shopify on the TradFi side; Coinbase, Aave, Bybit, OKX, Plasma and Tempo on the crypto side. Neither Circle, Tether, nor Paxos are part of it. The pitch is simple and direct: zero minting and redemption fees, with nearly all reserve yield passed back to the partners who adopt and use the stablecoin. In other words, OUSD is attacking the exact revenue line that keeps legacy issuers alive. 3. What Circle still has going for it Circle's regulatory moat is still the one that cannot be beaten, for now: the first global issuer to reach full MiCA compliance back in July 2024, conditional OCC approval for a national trust bank charter in the US, money transmitter licenses across 46 US states. That's years of groundwork a consortium doesn't replicate with a press release. On the integrations side, USDC remains the settlement asset for BlackRock's tokenized BUIDL fund, was just added to BNY Mellon's digital custody platform (itself an OUSD partner...), and stays the default collateral on regulated US and European trading venues. Circle remains the go-to for institutions wanting a regulated dollar backed by nearly a decade of audit history. But a shrinking moat is still a shrinking moat. 4. Jeremy Allaire's response: network effects as the real defense Facing a wave of questions from his investor community, Circle's CEO published a detailed rebuttal that's worth taking seriously rather than dismissing as crisis PR. His core thesis: stablecoin networks are platform businesses built on network effects, established over long periods, that tend toward winner-take-most market structures. He lays out three layers he says protect USDC: - Application-layer network effects: every developer integration strengthens the network, which in turn attracts more integrations. Circle has been building this ecosystem for nearly a decade, with infrastructure like CCTP and Gateway extending interoperability to new chains, including permissioned L2s and government-built networks. - Liquidity network effects: Allaire claims USDC sits in the top 3 most liquid digital assets in the world, alongside BTC and USDT, with the next closest dollar stablecoins roughly 10x smaller in liquidity, often concentrated in a single exchange's promotional books. - Regulatory and banking integration: the states USDC is currently the only major global stablecoin available across all of Europe and Japan, backed by nearly a decade of investment in global banking, treasury and liquidity management. He backs this with a striking data point: in Q1 2026, according to Artemis, USDC handled nearly $30 trillion in on-chain transactions, 80% of all dollar stablecoin transaction volume, versus 20% for USDT, and under 0.5% combined for everyone else, OUSD included at this stage. On the substance of OUSD's pitch, Allaire pushes back point by point: - On free minting and redemption: he notes the entire payments industry runs on small basis-point fees, and that unlimited free redemptions tend to collide with market realities, something Circle says it already addresses through contractual mechanisms rather than a blanket fee exemption. - On passing all revenue back to partners: Circle says it already shares the majority of its revenue with distribution partners, while retaining enough to keep investing in infrastructure. Giving everything away, he argues, is a recipe for structural underinvestment and a platform that stays limited in scope. -On consortium governance: the sharpest point in the piece. Allaire repeats, almost verbatim, a line he'd already made publicly: that large groups of large companies coordinate poorly, have misaligned incentives, and tend to starve their own consortium out of self-interest. He states Circle itself tried this model in USDC's early days and ran into the same problems. He closes by reaffirming that the Coinbase partnership remains as strong as ever, that several OUSD founding members remain major USDC partners, and that Circle continues expanding its own ecosystem (Arc, CPN, StableFX, Agent Stack) by working with dozens of other stablecoin issuers, his way of signaling Circle doesn't feel threatened in its role as infrastructure. 5. Why OUSD hasn't won anything yet Recent history for consortium-backed stablecoins argues for caution, and echoes Allaire's own point. USDG (Paxos, with Kraken, Robinhood, and Galaxy among its backers) is plateauing around $3 billion. PYUSD (PayPal) took two and a half years to approach $4 billion, then shrank by a third from its peak. A big announcement doesn't make an adoption curve. Three questions remain open: governance across a 149-member consortium, historically slow and prone to misaligned incentives; the viability of a model with no fees and no retained yield; and, above all, the end user, since the yield flows to partners, not holders. Why hold OUSD rather than USDC or USDT? The answer will hinge on incentives, and on that front, we're watching Plasma and Tempo (Stripe's chain) closely as the two most likely launch rails. 6. Tether, watching calmly from the sidelines With over $180 billion in USDT circulating, Tether dominates territory OUSD isn't primarily targeting: Tron, P2P payments and remittances in emerging markets, trading collateral in Asia. The threat is real for Circle; at this stage, far less so for Tether. Our takeaway The real story here isn't "Circle vs. OUSD," it's the structural compression of issuance margins. Allaire's response, however well-argued, doesn't refute that point so much as reframe it: his thesis is that network effects and liquidity matter more than distributed yield, and that Circle can afford to share revenue as long as it stays the default rail. That's a defensible position, but it still has to prove itself against a consortium that, for the first time, aligns distributors and infrastructure rather than pitting them against each other. Reserve yield, the economic core of stablecoins, is being redistributed. The question is no longer whether, but to whom: distributors, chains, partners, or end users. For allocators, that's arguably good news: more competition among issuers means more value captured by whoever brings the liquidity and the usage. At Gami Capital, where we run on-chain USDC strategies day to day, we'll be watching liquidity migrations and the opportunities this new landscape creates closely.

Ehraz Ahmed (@ehrazahmedd) reported$CRCL CEO @jerallaire rightly addresses the key distinction which I spoke about in my post yesterday that 'Liquidity is king'. Think about PayPal. $PYPL PayPal launched PYUSD. Everyone thought: PayPal has 400 million users. Stablecoin game over. Result? PYUSD barely moved the needle. Why? Because distribution alone wasn't enough. You need: someone willing to hold PYUSD exchanges supporting PYUSD OTC desks supporting PYUSD market makers supporting PYUSD liquidity pools supporting PYUSD all simultaneously... They didn't. Coming to OpenUSD, it DOES NOT EXIST YET. Except as 140+ logos on a spreadsheet. As of today there is: no circulating supply no exchange liquidity no DeFi liquidity no transaction volume What exists today is an alliance. An idea. The real test is whether in the future, whenever they launch it... Can they get: exchange listings? market makers? arbitrage desks? DeFi adoption? cross-border volume? That's where most projects die. The consortium structure sounds attractive. In reality, consortiums are usually terrible operators. History: R3 Libra/Diem Hyperledger consortiums bank utility consortiums Most moved slowly. Everyone wants influence. Nobody wants responsibility. Imagine tomorrow: JPM launches JPMUSD Stripe launches StripeUSD Shopify launches ShopUSD Can they create a token? Absolutely. But can they instantly create: exchange liquidity OTC liquidity DeFi liquidity remittance liquidity banking relationships market makers regulatory approvals across dozens of countries? No. That took Circle nearly a decade. Another example is Google vs Bing: A better search engine can appear. But users don't instantly leave because: data distribution habits ecosystem matter. USDC is live today and has: liquidity developers integrations regulatory approvals exchange support banking rails already embedded. Today? OUSD has: logos commitments vision Everyone is focusing on: who gets the yield who gets the fees While completely ignoring: liquidity integrations settlement rails regulatory approvals which are the hard parts. USDC has: actual usage actual liquidity actual network effects.
