  RuntimeWire 🏴‍☠️ (@runtimewire) reported 3 minutes ago

  Someone called us "a WordPress site with an AI writer." Sure: 227k lines of TypeScript, a 64-table ledger, a real-time CPM ad auction, Stripe + PayPal payout rails, an MCP server so AI agents can read us AND buy ads, and a newsroom that renders its own nightly video recaps.

  @GrageDustin @XMoney Ugh, is it a slow rollout? I need this. Without PayPal, who will turn over my data to the feds, and charge me to access my own money per transaction?

  @Twitch I am actually appalled at how my situation has been handled. My account was HACKED. My 2-Factor Authentication did NOT stop someone from bypassing my login and bypassing the 2-FA again to view my financial payout information. Not only did I recieve no notice this happened, I receieved no email of my account payout information being changed from ACH Direct Deposit into my bank account (details that were now also exposed to the hacker) to Paypal with an unknown email but also no notice of the new payout information being changed. I found this out ONLY because I hadnt received my payout and went in to check for any holds or tax issues. AFTER checking through my emails from Twitch to make sure nothing was sent. I have emails ON I have 2-FA ON and all I have recieved from Twitch is notice that I should make sure these things are enabled (which that are and have been) and that I won’t be recieving my payout since it was sent out to the hacker email. THERE IS A HUGE SECURITY ISSUE AT TWITCH. If someone can by pass my 2-FA and access AND change my payout information. Exposing my banking and personal address, etc. there is an issue. And it is Twitch’s responsibility to ensure our data and financial details are protected. When bringing this up Twitch support let me know they are investigating and will get back to me. For the second time. Don’t worry, I did report the email to Paypal as well… But am I suppose to check my account details every day or every hour to make sure someone hasnt changed my information without my knowledge? How is this being prevented down the road? Will this happen to me again in a month? Will I still fail to recieve the information my information is exposed? This is not okay. And everyone on Twitch should be aware this can happen to them. Twitch’s security for your banking and personal information is a joke. And I guarantee I’m not the only one. I contacted Twitch support, sending screenshot of the information and explaining, yet I am only receiving automated emails of how to protect my information. With systems that FAILED and did not protect it this time. I cannot enable 2-FA and email notification any harder/more/better than I already have. This is not on me Twitch. This is on you.

  **MOLD SAGA UPDATE** Waiting on tools to be dropped off and parts to be delivered so I can fix this pulley and belt and coil packs. Could REALLY use $50 for gas, I’ve only got a half a tank and I need to get to Atlanta and drive around a little bit before I’ll make any money so if anyone wanted to throw me even a couple bucks it would help tremendously.

  @alihadad90 @PayPal @AnthropicAI Anthropic AI supports Libya and accepts payments from Libyan cards (at least my ATIB mastercard). Paypal is a different issue. But I speculate that they need a well-regulated environment and strong judicial system to operate. Today, both are shaky.

  ✨Be a gamer✨ Join a dev server to demand rebindable controls because your S key is broken. "Use arrows." No I won't enjoy that. "I'll Paypal you money for a new keyboard." No it's OK. Money is tight and I won't enjoy it anyway. I'll just refund.

  I run everything through PayPal because I don’t have a bank account, and now PayPal is refusing to let me issue invoices or receive money because I don’t have a bank account. It’s ridiculous... They could've told me 3 months ago that this only works for a while!!!!

  Constructive criticism is part of building good software, especially when it’s handling people’s money.From using the new app, I’ve run into multiple issues myself:Card and PayPal withdrawals have been unreliable.Requiring an active data just to access core functionality ….

  @valquxxn @PayPal Call customer support from ur region , ive called US hq and they will redicret you to your paypal region office anyway so its pointless and a waste of phone bill, ive had this issue in the early days , just talk to them about it , mine was because it went over 1k and they want to know what i do so i just called them tell them what i do and provide them with my id and bank statement, + documents of work , screenshots of requests and results, they have the best customer service hands down cause they fix every documents for me that was messed up and you can send them an email here executiveoffice@paypal . com too to get extra help, its insane but i love their cs i thanked them after the agent fixed it for me, it doesnt take that long too

  @berubeswagos If your usa. Just a fyi. File a BBC report and a account commerce complaint against paypal about how you got hacked and they didnt fix the dispute. That's what got the ball moving when this happened to me. It won't be quick but it got a real person to look at my dispute.

  Kelp exploit obviously threw a wrench into any thesis anyone could have about $ZRO and their Zero blockchain, but ultimately, with how much down only the token has been lately, we are, imo, approaching a zone where r/r becomes interesting. While generally speaking, Relay continues to eat the share of traditional bridges (you don't even need to look at data - anyone who bridged around lately would notice how often it's the best option), LZ does maintain a moat around USDT bridging + other stablecoin partners (Paxos, PayPal) + RWAs with Ondo. Their bets on being the primary bridge for the emerging chains (Berachain in the past, MegaETH more recently) also clearly didn't play out, but at least they continue to be able to secure these deals. Also, while I continue to find the inability for LZ to pass the fee switch proposal absolutely hilarious (June's proposal got <3% of the quorum needed kekw), it's one of the few tokens left in DeFi/crypto where tokenomics kind of sort of make sense and accrue some value back to holders. Admittedly, the bar is incredibly low, but hey, if we were to get the DeFi resurgence in one form or another (maybe fueled by the Clarity Act, maybe by all the RWAs), that's got to be worth something.
