Cryptocurrency on PayPal? It won’t let you deposit from an existing wallet to PayPal so all you’re doing is buying tokens in a closed system and borrowing it for a period until you convert it to fiat cash. It’s a glorified lending service to make PayPal richer than it already is.
TL;dr PayPal bought a shitload of BTC, ETH, LTC and Bitcoin Cash and is “selling” it. You can’t even transfer it out of PayPal as they eat the token and spit out fiat cash to the merchant you’re buying from.
Makes sense for them to just hold tremendous amounts of it, especially with Ethereum going to a proof of stake system in the near future.
PayPal (or any banks, to be quite honest) getting its hands on crypto is horrible. The last thing we need is a centralized system running crypto. The future lies in decentralized finance.

Noah Green, 25, has been identified as the Capitol Hill attacker, who killed a police officer and injured another. His Facebook page identifies him as a follower of Louis Farrakhan and a member of the radical group Nation of Islam. ImageImageImageImage
His Facebook page contained numerous links to Louis Farrakhan's work and praise for him.

Curiously, his account appears to have been inactive since September 2020 when he last changed his profile image. There may be more posts, but they're likely hidden to friends and family. ImageImageImageImage
It's impossible for anyone who isn't a mutual friend to view his private content so it's impossible to say for certain if his account remained dormant for that long. It's unlikely that there are no other posts.

But if that's actually the case, it raises questions. Why now?

Nice flag, Jill.
If you asked me what flag that was I'd say "Mecha Hitler?"
It looks like the flag from the video game "Papers, Please", which is coincidentally about asking people for their documents and deciding if they're getting sent to the gulag or getting through.

Throwing?
She literally wiggled her ass out of the chair to get onto the pavement in front of the cameras. But yes, "throwing."
Everyone wants to be a victim these days.

Thank you.
Just kidding.
She needed to be bullied into signing that damn thing. Should’ve just signed it in the first place.

Won’t someone stop this white supremacist violence?
It was a mugging/robbery. Asian guy was carrying an Apple Store bag and probably just bought a phone or apple watch and tried to fight back.
The black guy tore into the victim because he dared to stand up for himself and defend his property.

Conservatives complaining about bad people producing bad things is all well and good but you gotta hit your enemies where it hurts. Sponsors, employers, etc.

Progressives know this.
A tool is useless unless you actually intend to use it. Threats are empty unless you act on them.
Starve your enemies. Deprive them of the means to hurt you or promote their agenda.
