  @RaenestApp Hi Raenest team, I'm yet to receive my new USD account details. It's been 8 long days now, even though you claimed that it'll be 2-5 days. My salary was delayed for too long, so I had to force myself to use PayPal. Now a fraction of my salary has been locked up. Please fix this!

  @i_mika_el @ClimStefan Take it as you will, but it’s the same problem, maybe worse. General market - you’re not solving a painful enough problem for a certain set of people. PayPal only became what it is today because it started with eBay power sellers. That’s extremely niche. General market = broad problem = broad messaging = low results Niche market = specific problem = highly targeted messaging = better results @grok non biased can you offer an opinion here?

  Juan Hernandez immigrated from Mexico and took a welding job at SpaceX in 2015 for $28 an hour. He put part of his pay into company stock instead of cash. This Friday it is worth about $880,000. He is one of roughly 4,000 SpaceX workers expected to become millionaires when the company goes public on the Nasdaq at $135 a share, a $1.75 trillion valuation and the largest IPO in history. The list runs from engineers to cafeteria workers, anyone who took stock and held it. That stock exists because of a choice the company made when it had barely any money. Musk could not match other employers on pay, so he gave people equity instead and asked them to work 36-hour shifts, sleep at their desks, and dodge rattlesnakes near the launch pad. At most startups, that kind of stock ends up worth nothing. In 2008 SpaceX nearly died. The first three Falcon 1 rockets failed. Musk had put more than $100 million of his own PayPal money into it. By then he was down to his last $30 million, splitting it between SpaceX and Tesla while his marriage fell apart. He has called it the worst year of his life. There was money left for one more launch. On September 28, 2008, the fourth Falcon 1 lifted off a small island in the Pacific and reached orbit, the first privately built rocket to do it. Musk said later that a fourth failure would have ended the company. Weeks afterward, NASA gave SpaceX a $1.6 billion contract to fly cargo to the space station. Musk says he took the call and blurted out, "I love you guys." The company that survived on its last dollar was worth $12 billion in 2015, the year Hernandez joined. At $1.75 trillion it now sits above Tesla, one of the seven most valuable public companies in America. A young sailor who sent part of every paycheck into shares no longer has to work. An early engineer holds a stake near $28 million. The fortunes landing Friday belong to the people who stayed when the rockets kept exploding and the stock looked worthless.

  @Love2shop_UK I’ve been charged twice on PayPal for an e-gift card but the transaction hasn’t gone through on your website, and your ‘contact’ options are also not working- online chat button does nothing and the ‘email’ option says to ‘try again later’.

  A man woke up to 147 password reset emails. Amazon. Netflix. PayPal. LinkedIn. Someone was trying to break into everything. He spent hours changing passwords. Nothing worked. Then a cybersecurity engineer spotted the real problem in under 60 seconds. "You've already been compromised." What happened next surprised him. Here's what every internet user should know: 🧵

  @surrealsoftlife @Billiheadboy @Hybrid_Ola The truth is that the platforms that have restricted us have means to restrict scammers. If scamming was the issue, why is Paypal back now? They left when scamming wasn't that huge a problem and have returned now a large number of boys are yahoo boys. SMH

  @MetamateDaz Yeah because the REAL CRIME is they never taught “Financial Literacy” and “Debt management” like our government the US CITIZEN has a spending problem. Check Klarna, PayPal, Affirm purchases and delinquencies. They wanted you a consumer slave and we all became one. MONEY IS BROKEN

  This whole #Outlier banning Nigerians saga is annoying. But let me shift your perspective to the bigger issue The system was never really designed with Nigerians in mind in the first place. Over the years, Nigerians have been blocked, restricted or heavily scrutinized on platforms like: PayPal receiving Stripe Atlas Wise Mercury Outlier TikTok Creativity Program Certain US fintech apps The painful reality is that once Nigeria enters the conversation online, many global systems immediately switch into fraud-prevention mode. That stigma is affecting millions of honest, talented Nigerians trying to work globally. This is bigger than VPNs. It’s a reputation and trust crisis attached to an entire country.
