I've never actually heard of Braintree, but being a subsidary of Paypak makes me more optimistic about the possibility of Paypal eventually accepting it too.

Payments firm Braintree, a subsidiary of eBay and PayPal, is “in talks” with Coinbase and several other processing companies on the possibility of accepting bitcoin, according to a Wall Street Journal report.
Braintree provides payments software for a number of popular mobile applications including Uber, Airbnb, and GitHub. The company, which was acquired by PayPal for $800m in December last year, was processing up to $12bn in payments annually – $4bn of that via mobile apps.
