History
PayPal is the result of a March 2000 merger between two online financial services companies, Confinity and X.com. X.com was founded by Elon Musk in 1999. Confinity was founded in 1998 by Max Levchin, Peter Thiel, and Luke Nosek. To block potentially fraudulent access by automated systems, PayPal devised CAPTCHA a system of forcing the user enter numbers from a blurry picture. In October 2002, PayPal was acquired by [[eBay[[ for $1.5 billion. -
