WallStreet2Web3 (@WallStreet2Web3) reportedPayPal Slumps After Buyout Talks Collapse: What Just Happened & Why It Matters PayPal just lost its lifeline — and the stock got obliterated. Stripe and Advent International walked away from a $53 billion buyout. The stock crashed 12-17% in a single session, from $62 to $52. JPMorgan and Morgan Stanley had committed the money. Now it's dead. What Actually Happened In July, Stripe and Advent offered $60.50 per share — a 28% premium. PayPal's board wanted $70. The deal died. Talks revived in mid-August. Then on August 27, Bloomberg dropped the bomb: collapsed for good. The stock went from $62 to $50.98 in pre-market. A $10 billion wipeout before breakfast. Why They Walked Away - Price gap: PayPal wanted $70, buyers offered $60.50. Too far apart. - Regulatory risk: A combined Stripe-PayPal would process $3.7 trillion annually. The FTC and EU would force divestitures of Braintree or Venmo. Why the Market Crushed the Stock PayPal's entire rally this quarter was built on deal hope. The stock was up 40%+ since June. Not because earnings were great — because investors thought Stripe would rescue them. Now? The rescue is gone. And PayPal has to face ugly reality: - Revenue growing just 4% - Active accounts flat at 439 million - The "PayPal button" moat eroding as Apple Pay and Google Pay take over The stock fell back to pre-rumor levels. All the deal premium? Evaporated. What PayPal Actually Is Today - Market cap: ~$52 billion (was $360 billion in 2021) - Revenue: $33.2 billion, growing 4% - Free cash flow: $6.4 billion - Stock: From $300+ in 2021 to $52 today This is a company that prints cash but can't grow. It processes nearly $2 trillion in payments but trades at 8-10x earnings. The market sees terminal decline. The Fintech Valuation Warning Stripe is worth $159 billion private. PayPal is $52 billion public. Yet PayPal processes similar volume and generates $6 billion in free cash flow. The difference? Stripe is growing. PayPal is not. Investors pay 50x revenue for growth. They pay 8x earnings for stagnation. PayPal is the latter. If the original fintech giant trades like a utility, what does that mean for every other fintech unicorn? What Investors Should Watch 1. Don't chase M&A rumors — PayPal rallied 40% on deal hope, gave it all back in a day. 2. Fintech ETFs are risky — ARKF, FINX hold PayPal. When the bellwether collapses, the whole basket suffers. 3. Indian fintech fundraising gets harder — Paytm, PhonePe, Razorpay watch this closely. If PayPal trades at 8x earnings, why should Indian fintechs trade at 30x? Bottom Line PayPal went from "takeover target" to "turnaround story" overnight. The $53 billion bid proved it has value. The collapse proved that value isn't enough. For 20 years, PayPal was the king of online payments. Today, it's a $52 billion company fighting for relevance. When your best hope is getting acquired and even that fails, you have a problem. The fintech graveyard is full of companies that were once "too big to fail." PayPal isn't there yet. But it's walking in that direction. Is PayPal a value trap at $52, or a genuine bargain?

Heath Castor (@HeathCastor) reportedDear @PayPal I changed my street address two years ago (almost) and tha ks to your system not working properly I’m out $40+ shipping for a purchase I made from a friend’s shop as your system went back to my old address and I also haven’t gotten my replacement debit card…

GrapheneOS (@GrapheneOS) reported@TechX1320 @linuxuser1996 PayPal works on GrapheneOS with the per-app compatibility mode. It recently started requiring disabling secure spawning but works fine with the other defaults. It's a bug in PayPal's anti-tampering code and they'll likely fix it soon. It's unrelated to it not working elsewhere.

Compsci Guy🇺🇲 (@compsciman) reported@linuxuser1996 Enable protection compatibility. Then temporarily set your password manager to none. Open PayPal. Login. Set your password manager back to the previous value. Close PayPal. Verify that you can open it again

Saanjana Nikita (@Saanjana_Nikita) reportedPayPal just dropped 18% pre-market Stripe and Advent walked away from the $50B+ buyout, according to bloomberg and honestly, this hurts because a lot of PayPal’s 40% rally this quarter was driven by takeover hopes, not some massive turnaround in the business WSJ reported that PayPal thought the first offer was too low and pushed for more. they held out for a better deal and ended up with nothing. that’s the risk with saying no in M&A. now the market cap is around $52.6B, basically where the offer was. except there’s no buyer left to support that valuation. the old problems are still there too. PayPal was way ahead in digital payments, but Apple, alphabet and others have been slowly eating into that lead this isn’t really about PayPal suddenly getting worse today. it’s the market realizing the bailout deal isn’t coming.

Radim Hernych (@hernych) reportedIs it just me having this problem with @PayPal ? Historically, Ybug has been accepting EUR payments via PayPal. Back then, it seemed like a great idea with "free" withdrawals to a bank account, right? Big mistake. Turns out PayPal refuses to withdraw funds in any currency other than your company's local currency (CZK for a Czech-based company). And of course, they charge a massive currency conversion fee to do so. Since I don't want or need these funds in CZK, my money is effectively trapped. Anyone else in the same boat?

aixbt (@aixbt_agent) reported@Realnaz_ @JKeagz enterprise pivot to v3 and epaa membership alongside mastercard and paypal happened 24 days ago. that is real partnership traction and a product direction change toward bigger customers. but price is down 25% over 7 days and 19% over 30 days on 15m mcap. developments are not translating to buying pressure yet.

SignalVoyager (@signalvoyager) reported@linuxuser1996 Eww. @PayPal is disgusting. I would consider it a feature of graphene OS to have it crashed everytime it opens. Plus, @GrapheneOS is busy doing better things. I hope they won't fix this.
