Ebay doesn't accept cryptocurrency as payments.... for now.

I think one reason why Ebay is still hesitant to this idea is the stability of the prices of digital coins. How could Ebay set an amount if the mode of payment itself is very volatile in nature.

Right. The origin of the rumors were goods and services related to crypto currency being offered on the platform. And as they said, there isn't any plans to adopt crypto currency for now neither for the future. Probably it was just more one fake news to attract traffic for news sites to generate profit from ads.

Well for businesses saying that they won't in the future only means that if things continues like this it won't happen in the future. But if the situation changes then they will for sure change their mindset and decision-making. The board only cares about making money almost 100% of the time anyways.

Never say never turns out to be a really accurate affirmation in this case. We will probably see it happen in the future.

It's rumores ebay is gonna to start accepting crypto payments. Have u heard? I am glad that more e-commerce companies are starting to allow the use of cryptocurrency to pay. It can be assumed that Amazon and Ebay will develop their own cryptocurrency
If cryptocurrencies become an affordable means of payment for trading, then this will also be a good opportunity to combine earnings from the sale of goods with investments. After all, you can use coins for trading and increase your free profits.

But then the company has to still go after trading which is I believe a big part of the profit you were saying. Plus the fees you have to pay in order to send that payment is somewhat not very appealing unlike fiats which you can pay without those fees.

eBay has said that it will not accept cryptocurrencies at the moment, the news spread like a rumor but it has already been denied. Hopefully in the future they can really accept bitcoin and cryptocurrencies, it would be a very positive news for the adoption

Maybe it is. But if ever they will, then it's good I think. Because slowly, cryptocurrency are being accepted especially with the help of some well-known companies. On the other hand, I think it's too early for them to create their own cryptocurrency, though. Besides, there are many others already circulating in the market. Anyway, ebay knows what they're doing so let's leave it up to them.

I wonder if it's realy EBay that supports purchases made with crypto or some third party crypto for that swap going on here. Seems a bit to good to be true that EBay would start this.

I don't know how true the story is but I think is a good development for cryptocurrency as a whole and that will be good as well to contribute to mass adoption of the crypto especially now that we are seeing a surge in BTC .

Thats bad if the price of bitcoin will surge because the fees will also surge whenever we use bitcoin for online shopping .

I think that this isnt the right moment for ebay to accept crypto same what happened to steam before where they support bitcoin but it didnt go well and bitcoin was replaced by litecoin  .  

I sense that can also happen to ebay and other online shops that are already supporting or will going to support bitcoin payments

This is going to be good. I like this rumor and eventually turn into reality having to have the official announcement for this. If the Ebay will add to those other companies that accepts crypto, that is a great thing that the crypto. Is still moving forward on its growth.

I'm just wondering if this is Ebay's decision itself about payment. Does a big companies like Ebay need legal regulations in order to accept payments with crypto?

If you go and search online it was just a hoax

" eBay isn't driving into crypto with Bitcoins included *
This is what I found word to word online

Therefore unfortunately how appealing that might sound , it's not the case .

Still it's not the case right now doesn't mean it won't be the case for the future too, therefore let's just hope it happens.

Maybe this is what caused the sudden rise up in price when there was news of ebay soon accepting cryptocurrency as payment and the advertisements which caused some confusion during the concensus event during this same time.
Now with them denying it this might have caused the drop in price as well. Roll Eyes
Oh crypto. Cheesy
I dont believe that news like this will cause ups or downs because if the company will decide to accept a certain crypto they wont buy that crypto , people or shoppers wont also rush to buy that crypto just because they want to use it as a shopping/paying tool   . The flow of the crypto market will still be the same as what they'v used to . Investors/traders will only buy crypto according to their needs  but overall  this news was still great , its nice to see that a reputable and big company like ebay is now joining the trend  .
They are not joining the trend. If you read a couple of the posts in the thread
It seems that eBay denies it. Look at this article. It wouldn't be bad to have that but maybe soon.

https://cointelegraph.com/news/ebay-denies-rumors-it-will-start-accepting-crypto-despite-advertising-at-crypto-event
They denied it outright.
As I heard about it with billboards showing up at the concensus event with this post I did right before the price shot up a couple days later https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/is-ebay-looking-to-accept-cryptocurreny-on-its-platform-5142644

Wow great to heard but nothing surprise for that because people and investors smoothly understand well the bitcoin important and convenient to use.


THis really is a good thing. Since only the average person uses EBAY. Having Bitcoin on the platform will create good recognition. and encourage people to get into it



Correct mate and aside from that people will use ebay plaform for their convient for fast and easy payment system using bitcoin.
