#3Venmo looks like it's trying to make a dent in Paypal's market. They've got a pretty good mobile solution. Though, I hear their eating losses with almost every transaction right now (everything is free, other than debit cards)

#5Brilliant use of Vine for the demo!
And speaking of PayPal: Max Levchin, who co-founded PayPal, recently founded Affirm, which appears to be a competitor.

#6Clever marketing. I've seen Vine videos explode as examples for things in the last few weeks, along with news and blog Vine embeds. Interactive marketing is going to get a lot more interesting with Vine clips (until of course we get saturated with those marketing messages and don't find them as unique anymore).

#7I was expecting him to hit "Pay with Paddle" and then get his butt beat endlessly until they closed his account for no reason, taking his money.
This is pretty cool.

I'm if the 15 second timer on instagram will be more popular for product demos than Vine's 6. It's probably irrelevant (since Vine could just change the timer to compete), but may have an interesting temporary influence on adoption.

#9I haven't used Vine at all, so this may very well be a restriction of the platform rather than an oversight by Paddle, but surely they could have placed a link on the page back to their site? or is everyone just expected to know that "@" means, find us on twitter? I can understand that works perfectly fine for the HN community, but for most audiences, surely they're missing out.

Well, if you know what vine is, I'd say there's a very high chance you understand '@'.
