Paypal and BTC cannot be partners. Paypal may accept BTC at some point, but you can't make a partnership with a decentralized network of computers.

Obviously "partner" is a poor choose of word by OP. But it's clear he meant PayPal accepting bitcoin or working with it in any way.

Since Bitcoin is decentralized, they cannot partner up. But, PayPal could choose to accept BTC much like they accept the USD or CAD.

i have no idea  Grin What do you think peepz?
Should they or not and why?BTC

I think under some conditions chargeback is a desired feature.
For example in eBay normally that's a good thing when purchasing physical items.
If the seller never sends the merchandise then the payment can be charged back.

So in my opinion it would totally make sense for PayPal to allow funding with BTC and using that funds on eBay.


no paypal shouldnt be judge only the court systems

If someone things he has been wronged by Paypal they can go to the judicial system in order to settle the matter.

Paypal just follows consumer protection laws.

I'm not saying PayPal should be judge, just an intermediary as it is now for US$ transactions on eBay.
Of course law/judges are in a whole superior level, but you can't get a lawyer and start a trial for every package that doesn't arrive  Roll Eyes

Bitcoin needs to replace Paypal, not be some type of "partner".

Probably bitcoin will make go PayPal bankrupt. I really don't think so but it's possible.
But saying BTC needs to replace PayPal is kind of saying US dollar needs to replace PayPal.

Bitcoin is a currency, PayPal is a processor, not really replaceable.

Loose lips sink sigs!
Paypal should accept BTC, PayPal is merely a facilitator of transactions, they don't take sides in currency.

And Bitcoin would benefit from the access to such liquidity.

Most important, PayPal is located in Silicon Valley and is the brainchild of visionary Elon Musk.
