Show HN: Original mission of PayPal was Bitcoin-like currency

"Many people don’t know this but the mission of PayPal was to create a global currency that was independent of interference by these corrupt cartels of banks and governments that were debasing their currencies. And we succeeded building something economically very powerful, enabled many small businesses, we’re super proud of it, but we never achieved the mission." - Luke Nosek, Co-Founder of PayPal
