  @Xx1tzwillowduh_ Definitely worth having a backup to PayPal if you plan to take commissions later. Payment issues can be a headache once you're relying on them for income, so having another option ready is a smart move.

  you can pay by card, PayPal, or Apple/Google Pay. It converts automatically to MVON. Enjoy decentralized P2P delivery without ever touching an exchange. Web2 ease meets Web3 power. No crypto? No problem. With @MovitOn_P2P

  you can pre-sell a product that doesn't exist yet, use the money to build it, and deliver it 2 weeks later. this sounds like a scam. it's how every software company, every course creator, and every successful launch in history actually works step 1: post about the problem you're going to solve. for 5-7 days. "here's what most people get wrong about X." "here's what i'd include if i built the ultimate guide to X." "who would want a step-by-step breakdown of exactly how i did X" step 2: count the replies. the DMs. the "me" comments. that's your pre-sale audience. they just told you they want it before it exists step 3: post "i'm building this. it'll be ready in 2 weeks. first 20 people get it at $27 instead of $47. DM me to lock in the early price" step 4: collect payment. through gumroad, stripe, paypal. whatever. the money arrives. now you have a funded deadline. the product isn't built yet. the motivation isn't an idea anymore. it's money sitting in your account from people who are waiting step 5: build it. in 2 weeks. the deadline is real because people paid. the pressure produces better work than 6 months of "getting it perfect" because perfection has no deadline and deadlines have no room for perfection step 6: deliver it. collect testimonials. screenshot the reactions. those screenshots sell the next batch at $47 without you having to convince anyone because the proof already exists from round one you just launched a product with zero inventory. zero risk. zero upfront cost. funded entirely by the people who bought it before it existed. the "scam" is actually the lowest-risk business model available because the market validated the idea with money before you spent a single hour building it

  I had to pay a business today that did not accept BTC, had never even heard of ETH or XRP, and required payment by PayPal. I spent over 500 dollars on fees. What a broken and archaic system. Future generations will laugh at how inefficient we were… we are so early, even earlier than I thought.

  @AlphaNews Should be easy to find them all, you need payment, get a subpoena for all credit card, PayPal, whatever other forms of payment and go arrest them if it was a problem. They all have GPS trackers too so you could just go after those on the freeway.

  Every now and then I forget just how terrible an investor I am. Two of my greatest hits: 1. Let’s open a COVID-testing booths at the airport. $XSPA 2. Let’s try to put PayPal out of business. $HMBL 3. Still not even sure what $OPTI did. My track record speaks volumes.

  PayPal is such a pain. So many hoops. High charges. Every time I went to use it, there was some issue or glitch or something didn't work right. And now they closed my account because I did not respond to some scam. PayPal sucks

  If the "PayPal" button to purchase does not show up on your end: 🔵 First, make sure you've filled in all the fields (name, email, phone, etc) because the PayPal button won't show up unless all fields have been completed 🔵 Clear your cache and cookies 🔵 Try a different browser So far, those methods work on our end. Please let us know if there are still issues. 🙏

  @brian_armstrong The kyc killed most of the potential clients. Had no problem with stripe or PayPal, CB business is a pain in the ***. Gave up on multiple tries
