Kayrab Thee Rabizm (@DreadLock_Gamer) reported@FedericoBa71889 @MarcoFoster_ @KyleKulinski So he didn't create it, he funded it with generational wealth earned from his parents who are in mining. But even then: Outside of America PayPal was never that popular. Tesla makes terrible vehicles and electric vehicles are worse for the environment currently.

Mr.Paul (@shravanrayhaan) reported@WillBiddy_ True. I guess in adobe vs paypal vs meta it all boils down to opportunity cost.

VC Intern (@the_vc_intern) reportedPayPal Ventures is winding down That is not just a cost-cutting story. It is PayPal giving up one of its windows into fintech before the next wave hits. The venture arm launched in 2016, backed more than 80 companies, and raised $850M across three funds. Its portfolio included Plaid, Anchorage Digital, Divvy, Talos, and other companies building the infrastructure around payments, crypto, banking, and fintech APIs. Now PayPal is restructuring. New CEO Enrique Lores is trying to simplify the company, refocus around core businesses, and make PayPal a technology company again. That makes the venture shutdown awkward. Corporate venture is not only about financial returns. For incumbents, it is market radar. A CVC fund lets a company see what founders are building before the category becomes obvious. Which payment rails are getting traction. Which compliance problems are becoming startups. Which fintech APIs are replacing internal roadmaps. Which crypto or banking infrastructure layers are moving from experiment to enterprise. PayPal can still partner, acquire, or invest later. But shutting down the venture arm means fewer early signals from the edge of fintech. The company is trying to get sharper. It may also be narrowing the lens right as fintech is getting rebuilt again.

Just Bob (@voip_91) reported@codeofvets @GretchenPSmith @PayPal How does PayPal even stay in business? With all of the problems people have faced with them especially the hacked accounts, and all of the fraudulent messages, it’s hard to believe that they have much of a customer base anymore. Haven’t used them in years, and never again.

Sam Boboev (@samboboev) reportedBREAKING: @PayPal winds down venture arm as fintech giant restructures under new CEO PayPal is shuttering its 10-year-old venture team amid a broader corporate shakeup, according to five sources familiar with the matter. The fund’s headcount has shrunk from more than 10 in late 2025 to now only two, according to an archived version of the website for PayPal Ventures. Meanwhile, the page that listed the venture unit’s employees is no longer visible. PayPal is also exploring the sale of some of its positions on the secondary market and has hired the investment bank Jefferies to help with potential transactions, said one source familiar with the matter, who declined to be named while talking about private business dealings. PayPal established its venture arm in 2016, one year after eBay spun off the fintech into an independent company. Since then, PayPal Ventures, which invests off the fintech’s balance sheet, has backed more than 80 companies across three funds that total more than $850 million. Some of its more prominent bets include the fintech Plaid, the crypto custodian Anchorage Digital, and its exits include Bill com’s acquisition of the startup Divvy in 2021. The performance of the venture fund’s portfolio contributed 10 cents to PayPal’s $1.53 earnings per share in the fourth quarter of 2025, as opposed to subtracting four cents in 2024, according to a February earnings release.
