This is before Stripe completing their acquisition of PayPal (which will happen). [0]

Maybe there is some plan to pump Stripe's valuation to over $1TN before an IPO.

Who knows.

I think the PayPal acquistion is to buy something that throws of real cash, to prevent a down round for Stripe when valuations reset.
