I told you guys, paypal are full of shit, they're just trying to ride the Bitcoin wave to get a bit more popular, I doubt they have any interest in the actual technology and they'll probably come up with some kind of centralised version of their own like ripple.

They have been touting their supposed love of the technology for years now, stop latching onto false hope.

On Tuesday, Andy Shroder posted on Reddit that eBay Inc. had removed his merchant listing  because he accepted bitcoin for his products.

Quote from: ebay
Please understand that you mentioned you accept ‘Bitcoin’ as a method of payment. Some online payment companies are fairly new and inexperienced and they do not provide sufficient fraud protection to members. When we review payment methods to determine whether they are allowed on eBay, two key factors that we consider are ‘Security and Safety’ and ‘Ease of use.’ Please do not offer this payment method.

So, 'Hard of use' payment processor is guaranteed for the 'security and safety' and make all customer is comfortable Huh eBay must consider this, again.

Quote from: John Donahoe CEO of eBay
It’s a new disruptive technology, so, yeah, we’re looking at bitcoin closely. There may be ways to enable it inside PayPal.

This is not a new thing, ebay also prevent a whole bunch of other ways to transact. Its been in the terms and conditions for ages as far as i know.  I dont think ebay are against bitcoin as such its just too complex as a means of trade for average person right now.

1. Bitcoin is secured by the most powerful computing network on Earth with with unbreakable encryption making it the safest way to send money.

2. QR coded BTC addresses make sending Bitcoin as simple as point and click.

It's sad to see that eBay is still not allowing its users to use bitcoin as a payament method, well what can I say? On the brighter side, it leaves a massive gap in the market for someone to secure.
