> What does this mean for Stripe customers now and 12 months from now?

It means that it will become just like PayPal. I would not sit on one payment gateway in the long run.

Ding ding ding. Stripe becomes PayPal. New stripe is born, cycle repeats.

As companies age and become more mature, they tend to become more risk-averse. They also become slower moving. The exact opposite of a startup. And why startups can and have beat incumbents.
