I have been told that don't accept payments via paypal, is that right?
Because when buyer will have his bitcoins then he can claim back money from paypal by saying that i haven't received desired product.

I do not experience that lind of thing because I never used PayPalin my life but for me the difference in bitcoins and PayPal is bitcoins gives you freedom on your moeny your savings. Paypal in the pther hand is a bank, and we all know that banks have a lot of process to do before you can do whatever you want to your money. And they are centralized i think and with that thing you cannot do such things with your money without their permission.

When this thread was started in 2015, bitcoin was a currency.
Fast, cheap and anonymous. But now bitcoin has become an investment. The fees are high, transaction times as well.
You can not compare those two anymore. The biggest advantage of a payment with bitcoin is the anonymity.
Other reasons to make a payment with bitcoin I do not see at the moment.

I've personally never had any processing PayPal. I do realize that the charge backs can be extremely annoying to deal with if you're a business. But overall I've never had problems (yet). But bitcoin is obviously a lot more unique and the idea behind bitcoin alone is so much better than PayPal.

The use of Bitcoin as payment in some countries to prove that bitcoin better than Paypal.
We see today many paypal users migrate to bitcoin. in addition to the ease in transacting bitcoin security is also very strong.

They are different kinds of things. Bitcoin is an asset, a kind of digital gold which has a price. Paypal is just a payment system.
As a payment system paypal is very good, cheap to use and very fast. On the contrary, Bitcoin is slow and highly expensive.

Paypal is better, but bitcoin is the best, paypal has a customer care that can help you out incase you got scammed or you have issues with your account, with blockchain or bitcoin you’re left with your senses to guide you through every transaction

I agree with you, in every PayPal deal always manages the money you are having, if you encounter any strange PayPal transaction will lock your account to check. I think this makes investors afraid to use PayPal and they switch to Bitcoin

Popularity and facilities owned bitcoin far superior to that provided by paypal. Bitcoin simpler and less troublesome in terms transactions. Yeah, maybe for some services paypal preferred, the rest is bitcoin. I have instead quit completely from using paypal for online transactions, and switching on bitcoin.

I agree with everything what you wrote.
For me Bitcoin is much more trustable just because few times i was scammed via PayPal - and now it is the most important difference from me! Security of transaction and no chargeback!

Bitcoin feels far better to me in the sense that it doesn't identify you in any way, while PayPal is connected to your email and stuff. That said, PayPal has some obvious advantages, including transaction speed and the possibility of reversing a transaction if you have evidence that you are being scammed

I agree with you . Everyone likes to use Bitcoin more because it is completely anonymous in transactions, PayPal is very limited in functionality because it can lock your account if something goes wrong, this will not be good for Big business.

If You want to make sure that you are using the right things for the right moment you need to make sure that paypal is only used for online payments and btcoins only used for investments.

Paypal has the disadvantages if paypal found shady or illegal activities in your account , your account would be limited temporarily or permanent . But , it has an advantages while the bitcoin not have . You can refund your money with paypal while bitcoin can't do this.
For me , either paypal and bitcoin has their unique features . So it depends by user itself for spending their money and preferred platform to use.

It maybe true that Paypal has some advantages than bitcoin, but bitcoin has a lot of advantages than Paypal. Paypay is not volatile as bitcoin does, Paypal cannot be trade while bitcoin can be trade in exchange site platorm in this industry and many more reason why still choose bitcoin than Paypal.

How about you do something about your posts?

Paypal is good as payment method and bitcoin as investment. But soon paypal could get bitcoin as concurrent, when lightning network is full implemented and accepted worldwide.Then I would also prefer bitcoin as payment method.

PayPal could work with bitcoin also, providing what people fear when shopping online, security and charge backs.
Either way is not a war between btc and paypal at this moment and more something like BitPay vs Paypal.

As I have already said my opinion is that the lower commission prices is always better for me as for a user. That how I understand it. Didn't get the point about iPhone, sorry English it's not my native language that's why maybe.

My point was that once I get the money I could simple send you a defective item or instead of the item a bag of garbage.
With bitcoin alone without using an escrow you're like a sitting duck for scammers with no chance to get your money back.

Now as many big names going to join bitcoin hope this could be good for this community but still its very long time to be going most attractive payment system in the world because currently its not reachable for many peoples in developing countries and most of populated countries where paypal is working ok for them

I think both of them are good.

)

if you are both familiar with their uses and I can agree with you where both sides have its advantages and lapses, so users are the one who can
tell which one is fits for their needs as they offer similarities for online transactions.

Well to make a clear undetstanding about it, paypal is like a middle man to different people who really wanted to purchase a bitcoin for investment, some were also trading peer to peer in order to make secure deals but it also happened scammers got chances to victimized somebody. That's why I came to a point of view that paypal and bitcoin is not to be compared, because paypal isn't a currency and yet bitcoin is the one to be traded, so that's why they are both better with different advantages and disadvantages; like bitcoin is a volatile currency with profitable investments.

Of course, bitcoin is better than PayPal.If you want to use secure PayPal you need a verification with your identity or passport.Paypal can hold your account balance any time if they want.But if you use bitcoin, you are the owner of that.No identity need for Bitcoin.You can use this currency anonymously.No one can hold your Bitcoin.If you hold your Bitcoin you can make a profit but if you hold your PayPal you can not make a profit.That's, why I am telling Bitcoin, is better than PayPal.Hope you understand.

It all depends on whether you like the payments to be irreversible or not. If you want the payments to be reversible, then you can prefer PayPal. If not, then you can use Bitcoin. Both the methods have their own advantages and disadvantages. For example, it is easy to make mistakes while making Bitcoin payments. If you are having a lapse of concentration and you type the wrong BTC address, then all of your coins will be gone.
