    What could Twitter possibly offer to make me switch banks?

    What could Twitter possibly offer to make me switch brokers?

    What could Twitter possibly offer to make me switch from Venmo and PayPal?

    Which Americans are not in a similar position?

    X Payments is doomed to fail. He missed the boat. The market is already saturated, and they’ve lost all brand loyalty.

      I ain’t linking any bank accounts to that dystopian cesspool and its tyrant CEO with no regard for rule of law who constantly steps on legal landmines and skirts all regulations and precautions.

      Like…PayPal had some bad practices, but nothing like the incompetence and complete disdain for his own users/customers that Musk brings to the table

        They rarely come onto the market with such a hugely toxic brand name. Big banks survive their bad shit through the inertia of having massive customer bases; they don’t enter the scene already known as a shitshow.
