There are many aspects that may hold back new people to use Bitcoin. The media aspect is a big part of it. They have been reporting bad news after bad news. When there is a bomb explosion somewhere in the world, they directly say it is financed with Bitcoin while there is no proof at all. I never see them report anything good when it comes to Bitcoin.
But if you are intelligent person you know that what media works. They only show you bad side of reality to boost their views.
They won't tell you that bitcoin is probably the biggest invention of 21th century, instead they tell people that bitcoin is tool used by terrorists and mafia.

I prefer bitcoin than paypal.
lower transaction fees, and bitcoin's value in the market continues to grow.
Plus, the transparent public ledger of all transactions (blockchain and the like) is so easy to review, and as what I said, it's transparent, available for everyone to examine

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.

you can't say which is better if you don't know what you want from them, because with paypal you can pay almost everywhere, because lots of online and even real life stores accepts them

while almost nobody accepts bitcoin now, but atleast you don't have to pay huge fees when you send them to friend or pay for something

At present I see people use PayPal much than bitcoin as PayPal has reached people through various forms than our bitcoin. People hesitate just it looks to be entirely new technology.

Paypal does have more fame than bitcions and, apart from that, many people don't know yet how to handle with bitcoins.
Paypal is also more secure at this moment, so I guess that's another reason why people choose it.
Please tell me, in what aspect you think PayPal is better than Bitcoin?

Bitcoin doesn't annoy you with frozen funds, Bitcoin doesn't bother you with silly charge backs, and above of all, you are the full owner of your money with Bitcoin, and you're invested in it because you own Bitcoin.

That is for each person different, some people like to use Bitcoin more than Paypal so they have their own choice to use their own payment method and you should respect it.
Personally I like Bitcoin more than Paypal and you can see that the using in Bitcoin is also rising.

I personally use bitcoin and paypal, it depends on the cases, most of the cases when i need to buy something i prefer to use paypal, but if i'm in need to sell something i prefer bitcoin.

ya it depends from what we want to do , since not many online store that accept bitcoin people will use paypal as payment

Media has the power to make something to grow in a short time as well it makes to fall in a very short time. But I haven't felt media considering bitcoin as a big issue.

The problem is that the average person is very sensitive to what the media is saying. If all they say about Bitcoin is nothing good, then the people will believe that. They will look at Bitcoin and see it as currency of the under world. It's being used by criminals only to buy drugs, weapons and such. So yes, you are very right here. The media can make or break things.

Yep, it's definitally better but paypal has bigger user base and it'll take time to beat it. It's also regulated so people are not so afraid using it.

uᴉoɔʇᴉq is indeed better, and everyone here will tell you the same thing. PayPal can block your fund, trace your payments and is reversible.

what is the big problem being traceable if you are not doing anything illegal ? yes paypal will block funds if you are getting some huge amounts in our account. they will find a way to block our account. make sure you sign a digital signature from the customer while using  so that they wont reverse and claim the amount.

Bitcoin as a payment is still a bit difficult ,most of the shopping sites are yet to allow bitcoin, exchanging bitcoin to cash is yet another pain with all the charges and stuff and the varying prices i dont think it is  very good of an idea. that is my opinion .

final verdict is both has its own advantages and disadvantages

Everyone has their own choice to use their payment method that they like, and some people like to use uᴉoɔʇᴉq and others like to use Paypal.
And you also have to respect their choice, but I personally think that uᴉoɔʇᴉq can be more used later in the future because you can see that it is rising in use.

And it will reduce in used for Paypal, because uᴉoɔʇᴉq is getting more famous now around this time.



Yes bitcoin is becoming popular now a days.....people go for paypal for online shopping....we can make money via paypal but i feel the btc is better as we get profit on the btc value more often and paypal is just a tool which we can use instead of money and your money will not be increased there where as in btc if you hold on you btc then you can say you will get profit towards it......

Thats because of the whole mt.gox story made people see it bad, or very sketch.

And when they heard the silk road event as well, it just makes it look worst for a new comer to even bother with bitcoin.

I am sorry for my reply because the two are different, reversible payment and irreversible payment.
I guess you understand.
