Topic: Paypal accept bitcoin - page 7. (Read 4893 times)
In the future almost every seller/website will accept Bitcoin, it's just inevitable! So yes, also Paypal.
they're conflict to each other. so I think paypal will not support bitcoin.
btw, maybe an altcoin (like utrust) can replace paypal in future
It is true the bitcoin is now being support by the people who have invested in the bitcoin and they are trying to make the high profit with the bitcoin in the small investment so I want to say that it is not possible. If you are not willing to have the money and you are interested in buying the bitcoin you should buy the bitcoin and hold for the long time I am sure the bitcoin profit will be high with the time. btw, maybe an altcoin (like utrust) can replace paypal in future
1) I think to realize this will be a bit difficult because paypal I do not think will include a bitcoin payment method
2) it seems that in the next 3-10 years this will not happen, but if over 10 years and bitcoin users the stronger paypal will probably consider it ..
3) I myself still use bitcoin and have not been interested to use paypal
4) to date btc is still the main choice of many people

Paypal is the direct competitor of Bitcoin so not a chance in hell. Bitcoin is designed to be peer-to-peer effectively making PayPal services absolutely redundant if it became mainstream.
In the global marketplace, rivalries can be friendly for a day, there are many examples. Apple and Samsung look like competitors, they can act jointly. But I think Paypal is a finished company.
1) Do you think about this news will happen ?
1. It bound to happen , it might not be bitcoin but the blockchain technology is here to stay and it would be a major boost for paypal should they accept bitcoin payments.Quote
2) Do you think paypal may accept bitcoin in next years (3-7) or it is impossible ?
3-7 years why not, all paypal needs is probably bitcoin being legalized.Quote
3) Do you think bitcoin will be better than paypal ? when will happen ?
its likely going to be unpopular among buyers as transactions are irreversibly Quote
4) which better for now PP or BTC ?
Seller= bitcoin is betterBuyer= Paypal is better but should it have some sort of escrow in place bitcoin will be the best!
1) Do you think about this news will happen ?
I don't think so because bitcoin itself is an alternate payment method and somehow better than paypal.2) Do you think paypal may accept bitcoin in next years (3-7) or it is impossible ?
Although nothing is impossible but the probability of happening this is very very low.3) Do you think bitcoin will be better than paypal ? when will happen ?
Not will be but bitcoin is better than paypal in many ways. 4) which better for now PP or BTC ?
I never believe that Paypal is better than bitcoin but for now BTC is not accepted in most of the online stores so paypal is not a bad choice for now. PayPal doesn't directly accept Bitcoin, but Braintree, a division of PayPal has partnered with Coinbase to accept Bitcoin.
Currently, Bitcoin network processes around 7 transactions per second, while PayPal with an average of 200 tps. In terms of scalability and daily transactions volume, Bitcoin is much far behind PayPal. But apart from being a good store of value, Bitcoin could also be a better decentralized version of PayPal by building second layer payment systems on top of Bitcoin, Lightning Network.
So in future, Bitcoin might be better than PayPal, but again it depends on how users will treat Bitcoin, as a store of value or medium of exchange and the extent of merchant adoption.
Yeah. I agree with you. At now, bitcoin is better than paypal. Braintree (one division of paypal) just took right way. Most of people has choosen to invest to bitcoin for much money. So, paypal must adapted this situation if they won't bankrupt. Currently, Bitcoin network processes around 7 transactions per second, while PayPal with an average of 200 tps. In terms of scalability and daily transactions volume, Bitcoin is much far behind PayPal.

In my opinion this case is totally possible. It'll be happened soon when Bitcoin will be legalized worldwide or only in few big countries like US or Germany. But I think it'll take really long time to legalize Bitcoin because of its disadvantages 
Paypal will never accept BTC, bocz many countries had banned Bitcoin trading. 
But Many countries banned paypal. Maybe someday paypal will accept bitcoins but not in third countries where paypal is banned like - Iran
Iraq
Syria
Sudan
Paypal will never accept BTC, bocz many countries had banned Bitcoin trading.

I think it will surely happen that PayPal will include bitcoin transaction and storage into it as it is also knowing and will to get a prat of its huge success by looking at its increasing value. PayPal may start accepting bitcoin in coming years as many big companies have already announced their usage and inclement of bitcoin in their services. 2) Do you think paypal may accept bitcoin in next years (3-7) or it is impossible ?

Bitcoin is still better than PayPal and the is no doubt in this as bitcoin has a value of $7000 now which is too high and it has already reached some new heights now.

3. Will means in future, so if paypal accept bitcoins, means this technology better than paypal.
4. For now, Paypal still better. From some data news, paypal can handle 193 tx/sec average. PayPal handled 6.1 billion transactions in 2016. For Bitcoins which using block technology, for now its can handle about 7 tx/sec only.
they're conflict to each other. so I think paypal will not support bitcoin.

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.
PayPal doesn’t work with/accept Bitcoin, they will probably be kicking against that. I’m sure they are accepting Payoneer, and someone once told me that you can verify and use your Payoneer debit card to be withdrawing funds from your PayPal wallet. So I believe if you have Bitcoin debit card issued out by companies like Xapo, Bitpay, Coinbase and the rest of them, it might possible to verify them and use them to withdraw money from your PayPal wallet. Not sure about, I’m just saying. 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.
I am even still trying to capture my head around why PayPal really need to accept bitcoin. The essence of PayPal is to serve as an intermediary between transactions while connected to your bank.2) It's hard to predict what will happen in the future.

Except if PayPal is going to work in such a way that they can serve as an exchange like some other services like coinbase and Luno in some places already do, then I do not really see why they have to accept bitcoin unless I am missing the point here.
Braintree is owned by PayPal so I believe you would have to integrate with them: https://www.braintreepayments.com/ 
Maybe it'll happen or maybe not. I think we need to wait a little bit more to see what will happen but I think Paypal will accept Bitcoin if there are any country will legalize Bitcoin as their local currency.
I think its posible that paypal accept bitcoin, but PayPal transactions are instant if you use your balance but it depends upon the thing you have decided to buy. For legal transactions ofcourse paypal is better.

2) Yes but it depends more of on what is the opinion of rest of the world regarding cryptos
3) When bitcoin is able to reduce its transaction times and fees.

For speed of transaction, I think that Litecoin or Ethereum would be better or Paypal will make their own coin. I'm sure that Paypal has the technology to make their own coin and their connections with the Feds and the banks would make it easy for them to change funds around the world. I'm sure that Paypal could even make their own exchange and could disrupt the market.
PayPal transactions are instant if you use your balance, so how exactly are the altcoins you mentioned faster in this aspect? Nothing beats in-system transactions. Also, PayPal doesn't need to create its own coin because it's based on fiat to move back and forth within their ecosystem. And even if they did create their own coin, it will never have any actual impact on Bitcoin's market, which basically goes up for governments coming up with their own digital currency as well. Bitcoin's market has its own characteristics that makes people interested in it, and then I'm mainly referring to the growth potential and the fact that there is no central authority in place.
