  @wariocolosseum Musk was born in 1971. He first appeared on the Forbes Billionaires List in 2012 (around age 41) with ~$2 billion net worth.  He made significant money earlier: ~$180 million from the PayPal sale in 2002 (age ~31), but it took further successes with Tesla and SpaceX for him to solidly reach billionaire status. The “40 years” rounds up from birth but overlooks that meaningful wealth accumulation accelerated in his 30s–40s through entrepreneurship, not a slow linear grind.  Now he is making $1 BILLION every 15 minutes from SpaceX stock moves alone.”Exaggerated but directionally illustrative of recent volatility. Musk’s net worth hit ~$1.3 trillion as of June 17, 2026. This is paper wealth tied to stock price fluctuations, not realized cash income. It can (and does) go down. This post reflects the polarised online discourse from people spreading misinformation or partial truths, exaggerated by the misinformed.

  Everyone said @solana's data infrastructure was solved. Our co-founder, Dominique spent 15 years in databases and knew it wasn't. Birdeye and Codex proved the market existed. They built a great product. But here's what happens to every successful company: as they grow, they move further away from the builders actually using the data. Feedback loops slow down. Edge cases get ignored. Power users emerge, who don't fit the original product. The pricing model stops making sense. The latency stops being good enough. This is where raptor[dot]trade found our opening. Databases have been used the same way for 40+ years. ingest → recalculate → serve stale data. repeat. nobody challenged it because the pain wasn't visible enough, until a few seconds of latency (post-compute) can catastrophic for anyone running serious strategies. So we built a new storage engine from scratch. incremental deltas only. No recalculation. ACID guarantees. 600K transactions per second. P98 latency of 6ms. the result: 99.7% lower cost-to-serve. one URL swap to switch from Birdeye, and we will work with @getblockio and @Shyft_to as our first partners to launch this. PayPal led to Stripe. Adobe led to Figma. Birdeye and Codex led to raptor[dot]trade. The first generation proves the market. The second reimagines the architecture for the power users the first generation left behind. That's where we aspire to be🔥

  @MatthewParrott JD Vance is a stand-in for Theil, Palantir, PayPal mafia, etc. He doesn't have sensible positions because he doesn't have any actual positions beyond what benefits the aforementioned parties and/or gets him elected. It comes down to how you feel about his backers, mentors, etc.

  BC & Montreal QC. But the second the sun goes down, this desperate British Columbian white ***** drops the professional act, strokes his worthless caged **** like a brainless goon, and begs to have his PayPal completely drained dry by a Superior. He lives for getting locked out,

  @codeofvets I just nuked my PayPal account because of the issues you're having. Sorry, but I'm done with them.

  The theme across Peter Thiel's career is exit. Banking broken? PayPal. Intelligence broken? Palantir. Startup funding too slow? Founders Fund. Public square too noisy? Dialogue. The pattern is not subtle.

  @GretchenPSmith @PayPal @AskPayPal I hear You Ms. Gretchen, in 2008, PayPal employees in Accounting, stole my money, after I paid a $12.00 invoice for selling a car. They sold my info, and 2 places got all of my money out of my account. I luckily had a sister working for AT&T and I had references & Numbers on the transactions they used, and found them. I call FBI, but I was able to get every penny of my money back by 4:30 PM that day. FBI asked me how I did that, I refused to tell them, methods they can't legally use. But ever since I Refuse to Use PayPal! I was so mad at Mr. Elon for selling, I had no issues while he was there. I am praying for you & the Veterans to Get The Money You raised for them! That is Horrible!!!! GOD BLESS YOU & YOURS!!

  Tried moving money out of PayPal Business. Even Gemini 3.5 Flash Extended couldn’t explain it after a long back-and-forth, even with full access to PayPal docs and Reddit. PayPal, your documentation and UX are broken: if an LLM cannot get it, regular users have zero chance.

  This is extremely bullish for $PYPL. In fact, it is screaming bullish. BUT (a big but), the only issue is the price. Both fundamentals and technicals need to align for the stock to truly recover. Today, the market would rather pay 156x forward earnings for $MRVL than 8x forward earnings and 1x sales for PayPal. I don't make the rules, I just play the game.

  Uhh, so I have a problem…I tried to set up a PayPal account for Ko-Fi, but PayPal immediately flagged my account with suspicious activity as soon as I made it. I don't have an ID. What ******** do I do???
