for now I tend to prefer to use PayPal as an online payment service. Why? because the current online stores that offer payment using bitcoin remains limited. however, in the future when many stores are offering payment using bitcoin, maybe I would prefer to use it.
What are your opinions on paypal or bitcoin for online shopping?
They're basically the same when you're only talking about shopping, both pp and btc via bitpay get confirmed instantly.
The main difference to buyer/holder is that paypal can limit your account and freeze your money, where with bitcoin that cant happen.
I prefer using bitcoin than paypal, because bitcoin have small fee for each transaction and the price for 1 bitcoin is so high, But what i like on paypal is the safety.
I'd much rather use Bitcoin as it only charges .1 or so fees and paypal can go up to 5-7% fees.
Not just 0.1 is only charges somewhat 0.000001 up to 0.0001 and for us, still that is not a big amount and very affordable price when sending of money to other people by means of btc.
And that's the advantage of bitcoin is that the charging fee is only low and very convenient and fast to use.

If you are a clever person i would pick the paypal and that is only becasue i dont trust the bitcoin payments because he is to new in this world maybe in the future i would use him but for now i stay with paypal.
I think you all can better use paypal off course only by buying things online because paypal is so secured by online payments that they can give money back is you are scammed.
How is this even a debate? The anonymous of a crypto and decentralization offers many more incentives then PayPal. The only downside is that it is not widely accepted yet 
Yeah, the real problem with bitcoin right now is that nobody in real life really accepts it while paypal is probably one of the most widely accepted payment processor across the world after visa and mastercard.
But bitcoin should catch up in the long term.
Paypal just came in first. That is the problem. So people are more used to this kind of transaction than anything else. Another reason is companies already absorbed Paypal and changing it would mean changing a lot in their transactions.

I only use bitcoin to buy online. I would not even consider PayPal or other systems. The problem they all have is that they tie your identity with your money. For example I gave a friend of mine my login credentials for Overstock.com. I told him anything he can steal is his to keep. When he got to the website he found that no credit card information was filled out and that there was no path to my bank account. If I used credit cards he would have had all that is needed to spend my money. I am on my 3rd. debit card for the year due to data breaches. But I have never lost a Satoshi of bitcoin.
Keep your countless rules and endless fees.
i think it is better to use paypal by online payments because they give you any warranty when you want to order something and you did not received it you will get your money back. Keep your countless rules and endless fees.

"paypal or bitcoin?"
If you ask this question on a bitcoin forum guess what they are going to answer..
What are your opinions on paypal or bitcoin for online shopping?
When it comes to shopping, paypal is better than bitcoins because the confirmations of bitcoin in blockchain took so long nowadays and sometimes it is stuck on blockchain so you have no choice but to wait. But paypal has a negative side because it is so hard to have a paypal account.
What are your opinions on paypal or bitcoin for online shopping?
I prefer bitcoin because I don't have a paypal. I tried registering to have a paypal account but there are a lot of requirements on confirmations to do unlike bTC which is very easy to use and user friendly except the waiting time for confirmation.
Yeah, that's one of the disadvantage of paypal, is having a very hassle way of being verified. You need to be verified first in able to have a transaction. And I find it very costly in money and also in time. Unlike in bitcoin you just need to sign up and after that you already have your
unique wallet address.
And you already can even see that Bitcoin is becoming more popular now and that is really nice.

I agree. They can both be used as a medium for exchange, but they work very differently. One is centralized with a central authority, while the other one is being run by the people. Comparable to dictatorship vs democratic. How is this even a debate? The anonymous of a crypto and decentralization offers many more incentives then PayPal.
