In September 2014, PayPal announced it would accept Bitcoin via integration with Braintree, and the same month announced partnerships with Coinbase, BitPay and GoCoin. Via the PayPal Payment’s Hub merchants could use customizable APIs to integrate Bitcoin into their shops for digital goods. At the time, it released a video hinting at Bitcoin integration.
Whether or not PayPal will pursue a more aggressive Bitcoin policy has yet to be seen. In 2014, weighing in already on Bitcoin currency regulations, the company told the Australian Senate:

Well, if they decide to integrate with some of these companies as you have said, that would obviously help enhance the usage of bitcoin by most of these merchants just like bitpay has always been doing. I am pretty sure they understand that they are missing a lot and would want to see how they can tap into it for their benefits coupled with what they have always been doing, so I would not be surprised.

In general, bitcoin has no advantage to face to paypal in many side as popularity, trust or conveniences. If paypal accepts bitcoin as a real money and allows user exchage bitcoin through paypal, it will very easy for all people who have difficulties in exchanging because so many countries ban bitcoin as a illegal money. Therefore, i hope in near future (2-3 next years) paypal will accept bitcoin so we can use bitcoin easier.

Well, that is one way to come in by acting as an exchange which they are not the first to do this. I have been using services like Luno in my country to achieve this for a while now and the services have been awesome. However, PayPal coming into the show will actually create awareness as a very large of the global population has been making use of PayPal and the introduction of bitcoin while serving as an exchange will make it even better.

1) Do you think about this news will happen ?
2) Do you think paypal may accept bitcoin in next years (3-7) or it is impossible ?
3) Do you think bitcoin will be better than paypal ? when will happen ?
4) which better for now PP or BTC ?

i can answer your no 2&3 questions.PAYPAL never accept bitcoin for sure.And I think bitcoin will be better than paypal. but need huge time and huge comunnity supports.But Don't know when it will happen

yeah your right.paypal wont ever accept bitcoin because they
are two different things with almost same offer to user.paypal maybe
faster than bitcoin transaction but bitcoin has lots to offer.and some
PayPal partners are making business to other crypto exchange because
they know that bitcoin has a better future than paypal

Yes, PayPal and bitcoin function on two entirely different platform. Some feel bitcoin to be good and some for the payback options prefer PayPal. PayPal might get associated with bitcoin in the future when technology makes a big change in the entire growth happening around the globe.

1) Honestly, i don't think paypal will ever accept bitcoin. Actually paypal has quite good reasons for bitcon not to get adopted too much.
2) It's hard to predict what will happen in the future. Especially with such a "new" market/system like BTC. But basically i don't think this will happen.
3) This basically depends on what your standards are. If you focus on privacy/pseudonymity then BTC is definetly already better than paypal.
If you are looking for fast payments with low fees.. paypal is (currently) better in this case. But with paypal you have to trust a company to keep your money.
4) Thats why BTC (for me) is better than paypal. I rather pay some higher fees and wait 10-30 mins, but instead i (and only i) am in control of my money.

Well, PayPal having an exchange is one thing that we may expect later on and I won’t be surprised. They have always had the name and the platform that has been working in years.

However, PayPal accepting bitcoin directly is something that I do not really see the necessity as that would be to what extent? Bitcoin is workable with wallet to wallet transaction which totally eliminates PayPal in the equation and except PayPal comes in as an exchange, they are not useful in the bitcoin ecosystem.

They may do in the future like you say.. but is hard to say really, they probably view it as more of a competitor to them at this point

Bitcoin is better than paypal transaction fees, security and accessibility of your wallet, but if PayPal accept bitcoin transaction i will try and check if it worthy.

First, Bitcoin and PayPal can never be business partners, and there’s a reason for that. PayPal is a payment processor, and was made for the purpose of transaction online with use of various currency. Bitcoin is different, and is not a payment processor.

It’s just a virtual currency and it’s own its own, and its price always varies in comparison with real currencies, and it has no stable price rate.But bitcoin offers some nice features like lesser fees for transactions.

I think Paypal will accept Bitcoin
Because Bitcoin and other coins are the future trend.
So, Paypal will improve itself to develop

As I see PayPal are desperately wants to have a connection to crypto currency to become famous in digital world. Also digital currency now are much healthy condition in the real world so I think they used it by the PayPal to survive in the future.

I think paypal will accept Bitcoin soon when Bitcoin would be legalized in any country. As I think for now Bitcoin is better than Paypal already Cheesy

Might be. But I think we need to wait a little bit more cause I think Paypal will only accept Bitcoin for payment when Bitcoin legalized in any country all over the world. For now Bitcoin is still not legalized in any country yet so I think at the moment this case is not going to happen but it'll be happened soon.

With a fee of 0.000339 BTC per median transaction size of 226 bytes is hard to believe that bitcoin will be ever used by big companies (eg. McDonald's) for small payments.

It's just a matter of waiting for lightning network to be in public operational condition. When that happens, the currency aspect of Bitcoin will get its use and appreciation that it deserves.

It will be an ultimate form of incentive for people to spend their coins, where they now complain that they don't spend any because of the fees and confirmation times. I however doubt that people miraculously will start spending.

People will always know that when they spend Bitcoin, that they very likely will miss out on further profits due to this market that doesn't stop with increasing, and honestly speaking, we can't blame them for thinking like that.

In the near future all the big companies will start accepting bitcoin as their payments. It is good that PayPal has started accepting bitcoin as their payments and they are trading in bitcoin because they know the importance of bitcoin and they have realized that bitcoin is the future currency and all the people in the world will use bitcoin as their legal and regular currency for their day to day needs.

2) Do you think paypal may accept bitcoin in next years (3-7) or it is impossible ?
3) Do you think bitcoin will be better than paypal ? when will happen ?
4) which better for now PP or BTC ?

Regarding on which better for now PP or BTC, PP is more better in daily transaction because paypal has been used for a long time while BTC is much better on transaction such as trading and investment because of its voltality and anonymity. And about if paypal will accept bitcoin next 3-7 years, I think it is possible because bitcoin now is becoming more popular and few of them are prefer to use it in their transaction.
