Paypal (payment processor) and bitcoin (digital currency) who will stay longer on internet?
Also welcome to time travellers for answer.


NOTE:we focus on online payment system which will widely use by ecommerce websites.

I feel paypal being a company will go away faster. bitcoin will be here to stay forever.

We can't compare PayPal and Bitcoin. It is incorrect. PayPal just a company processing payments, bitcoin is a currency (besides a payment system).
PayPal could process bitcoin payments as well.

Bitcoin. It is a currency, while paypal is just another company that provides a payment system.

Bitcoin better

i prefer to use bitcoin because bitcoin promises to be the most secure Payment method available, there is no database to leak or accounts to be hacked. However, PayPal is a common target of phishing emails which can be very sophisticated and easy to fall prey to. If your account is compromised, it will likely be sold on the black market to the highest bidder and worse could leak your bank account or credit card details.

Bitcoin has lot more potential than paypal but paypal won't be dead at all.
It has great user base.

Bitcoin needs miners & Paypal doesn't just a centralised infrastructure.

So basically they are in the same league since Bitcoin is de-centralised & nobody owns the company.

Since Bitcoin is not yet implemented in all forms of trade, and some countries doesnt even recognize this as a currency. I would say, as for now both of this methods of handling currency is incomparable. Maybe after sometime, specially once the inflation of the BTC after the halving. BTC as digital currency will be popular. Probably that's the time we can compare the feasibility of both.

I perfer bitcoins over paypal

I am currently using paypal  and i have no issues with it

Paypal is  completely shit, don't compare this shit with bitcoin.

Paypal is a business that won't probably last forever. Bitcoin is not a business, but rather a technology that could be much more long term if it succeeds. I would bet on bitcoin.

Bitcoin !

Because trading Bitcoin for Paypal = Chargebacks while trading Bitcoin for Cash Trades or Deposits = Winning

Paypal is populer processor payment in the world and many people and company used paypal for payment but now paypal become the bad payment because too many rules , and many company that used paypal was freeze , their fund is freez by paypal, paypal looks very stiff. and not make easy for user.

Bitcoin is the Virtual payment also , and many people knowing BTC , bitcoin is one way for payment, bitcoin give feel safe, soft , easy and fast transaction , No Need Verification ID, Keeped Secred ID,
 
I think Bitcoin is the Winner, The Economy will grow up if bitcoin use for Global Payment  ;)

Like others said, oranges to apples here. It's like asking which will last longer, the Chase Bank or the USD dollar.

iam choose bitcoin is compare batle with bitcoin
becuase paypal is easy can use not verified anonymous so very easy use bitcoin

i agree with you mate as popularity has conquer the web bitcoin will be use as a global payment same with paypal and i think most people in the web wanted to be more anonymous so they prefer btc to transact instead of paypal, my personal opinion mate. so bitcoin for me will be the winner.

Bitcoin is a revolution in payment or monetary system. It's hard to do business with Paypal or even using Paypal. But with bitcoins its a lot easier and bitcoin is here to stay. Paypal has to follow all those rules and regulation which it's users will have to adjust to it and even make suffer a bit. You don't have that issue with bitcoin. In my humble opinion I think bitcoin is miles ahead that Paypal. Paypal does have it's own customers and users. But wait for another 2 to 3 years and we can get for confirmation on this. Bitcoin is here to stay, not sure about Paypal.

Well I guess Bitcoin will be here longer, since it can't just be shut down by anyone. There could be a revolutionary new service  in a 100 years that will lower the profits of PayPal, and that could kill it.

Then again, who knows what the future will bring for atl coins. Maybe one will make Bitcoin so useless that people will stop mining it. Or lower it's popularity to the point that future generations don't care about it, and those who do slowly die.

I prefer paypal because it is more stable, and the country that I can not withdraw Bitcoin  :'(

I think paypal will stay longer as people are afraid to use bitcoin

all people who want the safety , soft transaction must use BitCoin,, no limit and rule in BitCoin, no one can Detect Bitcoin,, different than paypal, no wmany paypal Haters in internet world, and fomany company decided to choose bitcoin payment payment.
Look TrafficMonsoon :) the biggest company who was defeated by Paypal..
paypal use many way to get big profit :)

Bitcoin. It is a currency, while paypal is just another company that provides a payment system.

there is no way i go back to using paypal, fees are very high, your account can be limited anytime at their choosing and i don't like giving my documents to them.

Im Vote ,that Bitcoin is the Winner ,
Paypal is bored payment processor , too many rule there, and i hate it :-\

I think it will be same, both paypal and bitcoin. But the demand for paypal is more stable than bitcoin demand. Bitcoin demand is based on it rate.

both paypal and bitcoin. They are different and can stay together.

Can't really understand people who trying to divide it, people can use both ;)

Paypal is the thing of the past, bitcoin is the future.

I saw post about paypal vs payza and I choose paypal instead of payza. But in this topic I choose bitcoin because it is easy to withdraw the money in remittances and banks without credit card, debit card or atm card. Bitcoin also is easy to earn than dollars. You can earn bitcoin by faucet site and invest it on investment site. You can also earn bitcoin here in bitcointalk.

iam choose bitcoin

this growth my money iam choose bitcoin
this payment buy to store online iam use paypal

Like both but paypal's fees can really take the joy out of receiving payment and has to be factored into any transactions you do.Also have heard many  nightmare examples of people with locked and restricted accounts.So Bitcoin is tops for me.

Paypal fees are just too high, I prefer using Bitcoin.

bitcoin

both them
iam use bitcoin and paypal

bitcoin

I prefer paypal than payza but both reversible.

Bitcoin is the best! Don't like paypal honestly...

Tons of people really hate Paypal therefore Bitcoin is the best choice.

I choose bitcoin. No need atm to withdraw.. I receiving money through remittance.

Bitcoin is the future of money, so I vote for Bitcoin  ;)

Paypal is a payment processor and bitcoin is digital currency. so we no need to try compare them. But we will must tell "The bitcoin is currency of futire", its not wrong.

PayPal is full of chargeback fraud.

Maybe I did not really look into the matter, but for me, the examples relate to different payment systems, and they can not be used interchangeably. If you bitcoin existed as the only currency in the world, then really only bitcoin, but as for now it is not.

Bitcoin is better than PayPal ..
Bitcoin  need only to cellphone number and email to verify your account and bitcoin is smooth transaction.
Paypal many people complain because their account not verified.

choose bitcoin the best for me

iam use both them

I use and paypal and Bitcoin. That suits me and I'm comfortable that way.

Despite the fact that Bitcoin is better and faster to fulfill its function, paypal, too, it was not bad for the time being. But complaints have recently very much. Checking operations I like in bitcoin

there ain't much point comparing them. they're fundamentally different. there's a place for both of them and that's gonna continue.

You can not give up a purse for the sake of another, especially if they can provide very different services. I do not think that we will give preference to the right or paypal or bitcoin.

Paypal has been around for some time and I don't think there will be anything to stop it right now. Bitcoin just started a few years ago and still has milestones to achieve. The two are completely different in nature although both involve funds transfer. If you asked me which is more safe, I would prefer bitcoin because I have had a rough time with Paypal for the past one year. I have over $1,000 stuck in my Paypal account because of limitation. I am not able to withdraw despite paypal saying that I now have the ability to withdraw. It is hell dealing with paypal.

bitcoin the best for me

this choose paypal vs bitcoin
not paypal vs payza

The main benefit of PayPal is that it is often only in the presence of account, ie, your personal PayPal account, you can buy goods in a particular online store. Otherwise, nothing happens. There are certainly problems with bitcoin. But every digital currency has some features of calculations.

i am choose bitcoin because very easy use
nothing verified
and easy can get bitcoin

Both of them is best payment in internet, and i think we can compare them based on the method of payment. For me, bitcoin is best payment if you want to bother with credit card, but for security im choose paypal. Until now i think security for bitcoin its too low. That my opinion. Thanks :D

I perfer bitcoins over paypal

this would be your stand point if you were the seller try be the buyer and use bitcoin :P
 i pick paypal over btc

bitcoin much more cheaper and will replace paypal in the future

I believe that Paypal is more popular than Bitcoin. Paypal more people enjoy , he is better known . And yet little-known Bitcoin currency in the world

Both are well created and they are useful. Let`s see how BTC will develop in future

bitcoin

Actually substantial or real lucrative offers in the material plane as I intend to use the PayPal wallet special there, except that PayPal sends to registered users of coupons for discounts at certain stores or Ebay site. This is perhaps the only difference from the bitcoin.

Many of my friends use multiple repositories. Paypal and bitcoin in the pair gives a serious security for your transfers and savings in general.

bitcoin by far since no one can control or block your money
with bitcoin you are the boss

bitcoin wins :D

The question is really difficult and if you are just starting their way online buyer and know little about it, we can advise you to first at least a little time given to the study of information about how to buy online. Here you and show information about paypal and bitcoin.

bitcoin still the best

I prefer bitcoins over paypal, but IMHO paypal is more popular

Bitcoin, never using Paypall

Among the operators of electronic payment systems such a leader today is PayPal.

bitcoin, very easy to use it

I prefer bitcoin transactions, though it takes a long time

to long time 10-20 year ago paypal is good
maybe 10 year ago bitcoin is take over another altcoin in the posistion the best crypto coin

bitcoin doesnt need CC or VCC to use
so i choose btc because is so simple

from this am made to  believe the 2 are dependants of each other

It turns out that they complement each other. If you do not take risks that can be used and the purse both.

As I have already started to use another payment system on the Internet, on these two can not say anything. For me the main safety and no difficulties in paying for goods via the Internet and other operations.

In terms of belief, Bitcoin. But more people use Paypal. It depends on what you want to do.

in transactin in store online iam use payapal

Bitcoin is The winner ..
why ? because bitcoin is free platform , no need rule, simple , and fast , no fund freez no SEC ,
PAYPAL IS LOSER

i don't think PayPal is best . because of  two most big disadvantage .
first thing is reverse of money
second thing is it deduct the money from bank account without warning or notice .

no loser no winner
this about easy use , low fee not verified and more

but bitcoin the best still beter good from paypal

Probably bitcoin will be primarily valued for the lack of interest in translating and another argument is anonymity. But I believe that today bitcoin limited to the possibility of complications.

Paypal The very first advantage is that it can pay off in a purse so many stores on the Internet, as opposed to bitcoin. Bitcoin is not popular.

but we are in the internet so possibility to overcome paypal is really not far and besides bitcoin is and easy to use currency and it had low transaction fee.

Yes it might happen because bitcoin can easy to withdraw than paypal now. Bitcoin also have many opportunities like faucet, online investment, trading and gambling site which you canget funds and grow your bitcoinsin the future. And also bitcoin now has a high value now unlike before.

I can see both PayPal and Bitcoin surviving for multiple generations. Both have their advantages that will lead to their longevity. While PayPal has more users currently, I think Bitcoin has the bigger potential with more people learning about cryptocurrency. PayPal has the advantage because you can link to bank accounts and can deposit or withdraw money easier than Bitcoin.

I also think that Bitcoin is the winner here. PayPal will of course change it's name in a few years (like they all do for whatever reason). Too much people don't even know what bitcoins are. Just compare how popular BTC would be if it the same amount of people wouldn't know it.

bitcoin still the best digital curency

Yes I second the motion becayse there a lot opportunity in bitcoin rather than paypal. It is easy also to earn bitcoin than dollars in cyberworld. You need to have skills for example the freelancer but in bitcoin you just need strategy and a little bit patience to grow your bitcoin.

Never a fan of Papal. But I am a hardcore fan of Bitcoin. I would love to see bitcoin surpassing Paypal. Right now, paypal seems to have more users and more transactions. But things can change in future. When bitcoin solves the Block Capacity issue, we can see more users and more number of transactions.

paypal have been suicde prosses for me, because shutting Down in Turkey, Speak warn warn warn. You can still send and receive money to your bank accounts, but the rest is still a lie.
"We are sorry to say that paypal is suspending its business operations in turkey. Effective from monday 6th june 2016, our customers in turkey are no longer able to send or receive funds with paypal. And withdraw any balance on their accounts to a turkish bank account.
Supporting our customers is very important to paypal. However, we have no choice but to suspend processing payments in turkish as our application for a turkish payment has been denied by the local financial regulator, and we have been instructed to suspend our turkish business operations.
We would like to thank all of our customers in turkey for their business. We have been working with our company for over a decade.

We will continue to seek to obtain the necessary approvals to enable us to recommence our services in turkey. "

You can see; https://www.paypal.com/tr/webapps/mpp/home

bitcoin the best digitral curency

 ;D Paypal is a big money laundry machine. It will be dead soon. Their TOS are also super stupid and too difficult to users (the good users).
BTC is easier and smarter than PP, it may exist longer.

If we consider as a competitor paypal bitcoin, it's already gone, because the other payment systems may offer a place to store their purses. For example WebMoney.

Other payment systems are not yet fully provide services for the storage and use of bitcoin. Some main condition is the identification of the person.

I think bitcoin better ;D

PayPal will end up becoming a BTC Wallet... could you imagine.  ;D

They will both be around for a very long time.

Paypal and Bitcoin will probably end up integrated together at some point.

 ;D

btc still has a long journey and wll become bigger than now

for paypal, i dont know
i never use the service

Trust any service does not make sense, because it is very difficult to read the difficulties that occur are not your fault. Paypal as bitcoin worthy for complications, but still need to be careful.

If you respect bitcoin, then on the other simply can not. Although the outlook for a higher need to understand that we can take and other purses if the service allows you to obtain a stable security.

bitcoin still the best

Today, a large percentage of money turnovers produces paypal competitors largest translation is not. But if you bet on predictions about bitcoin, it is for the future and, accordingly, cryptocurrency bitcoin will lead.

So far, only bitcoin because my country without paypal and PayPal representatives emphasized that they have their own strategic plan, which indicates the intention to enter the markets of specific countries in the world for the next two years.

The fact that the representatives of PayPal, has long said that they have limited human and time resources, there are countries in which they can enter and who can not. That is why they have a strategic plan. So we can only wait and hope for the introduction and good service.

Lack of bitcoin and paypal in some countries due to the imperfection of the legislation only country that regulates the activity of payment systems. I'm fit and paypal and bitcoin, but I want everything to be legal.

Bitcoin and paypal and so inseparable because many want to purchase Bitcoin via PayPal, because PayPal - it is a popular means of online payment.

Absolutely Bitcoin. Paypal is dying everyday by their term of service. Their rules is stupid and uncomfortable for users.
Just image that you can take the money back after gave it to someone ?

I am a victim of the "silly" rules by PayPal but all I can say is that for security reasons, Paypal is by far the best service to use. Their rules will protect you from fraudsters but with bitcoin if someone defrauds, you have no chance of recovering your funds.

I rather choose bitcoin than paypal.

Praise Bitcoin! With bitcoin there's no company freezing your funds because you're selling "digital items".

Thus, as I understand, there are no impediments to the transfer bitcoin or storage can not be? And how will things were, when all the time will come and go bitcoin control. How to be in that situation.

I use paypal and so far only earn up to Bitcoin, so be converted to usd at paypall.

If you honestly, that I doubt anyone give preference. But I liked the idea that, as the saying goes, there is no need to store eggs in one basket. Therefore it is better to deal with a few purses, not only with bitcoin or paypal.

Its a weird line now that with coinbase you can cashout btc to paypal.
Paypal is accepted almost everywhere worth while shopping.
Btc can be used to buy gift cards to shop at just about any place.

The lines are starting to blur but id say btc since the fee's aren't crazy high.

It is in fact the case. It paypal more famous and popular in the world, because to buy goods using this payment system can be almost anywhere, unlike bitcoin.

Exactly, its kind of difficult to compare the two. However comparing bitcoin salletd and paypal, Bitcoin wallets are easier to use and transfer money, but paypal has more uses. More sites allow you to use paypal then bitcoin wallets

The company ESET warns of large-scale cyber attack, the victims of which are clients of European banks, as well as the largest number of users of online services including Paypal.

I used paypal on a few occasions, but it was possible to realize that it may cost more to the user. While bitcoin has very low fees and a convenient, easy to use, payment system.

The system is quite easy and does not provide until now no problems. But now straining very artificial hype surrounding Paypal, and therefore think about why someone is on hand.

Perhaps it is also aimed at to raise panic and people en masse began to withdraw money, and this may have to collapse the market.

PayPal has to be the biggest con of a company in e-commerce. Their customer support is awful, they can freeze your funds without reason, and they can close your account, forfeiting your balance completely, without any reason. Buying/selling with it is a pain, you get disputed and practically always lose because of PayPal's philosophy of always siding with the buyer. If you're a buyer, you'd want to pay with PayPal, you have a safety net. No safety net with Bitcoin.

There 120 day holds of money to get that interest seems like it could be a real thing.

I got a chargeback from 167 days ago!
PayPal i hate it.

I think bitcoin will stay stronger because some online businesses use bitcoin for payment unlike the paypal which is a payment processor maybe 7-8 years from now no more paypal  :D

Instantaneous transaction to a few seconds transaction exists already in parts of the world for banking and sending other money.
I believe my friend said in the uk they have something similar to what i explained.

i think is not competitif if you want  exchange bitcoin to fiat money
but you use paypal, i think is direct to your bank is the best choice

BITCOIN, stay away from paypal feee very" high  :P

Bitcoin yes

I prefer paypal because it is more stable, and the country that I can not withdraw Bitcoin.

Paypal and bitcoin seems to be both good in terms of online transaction. The only difference is that paypal needs verification before you can use it while bitcoin can be used without revealing your identity at all. In my opinion bitcoin will last longer than paypal since bitcoin is a currency. Even if it is a cryptocurrency it is still a currency and it will last longer if it is appreciated by more people in the future.

I wish that bitcoin will stay longer because PayPal are scammers they held people's fund without any genuine reason, blocking people account I hste PayPal bitcoin I lovr

If you have Iban/SEPA you can withdraw bitcoin now on http://www.koop-bitcoin.nl/

bitcoin and paypal are two complete different way to pay / and manage money.

I will choose only bitcoin, because I am "protected" by the network and I don't need to trust a company for safely save my money!

Very high for any significant amount.

Stability bitcoin is due to the fact that large investors are moving away from the high risks associated with oil and gold, and do not want to enter the unsecured currency that devalued deliberately by central banks around the world. In this context, Bitcoin can be regarded as a kind of safe haven.

Bitcoin will stay longer.

PayPal is only about one company. It can disappear if this single company goes away.

Bitcoin is for all people. It won't disappear no matter how many large companies goes away.

Yet clearly the future is paying off and more and more new users of digital currency, and more and more people will be able to understand the benefits of using blokcheyn technology for payments with minimal cost.

Pointing to the "rapidly changing aspects of international trade and payments arrangements", the company eBay announced plans for the separation of its business into two mutually independent companies: eBay and PayPal. This suggests an increase in opportunities for users and improve services.

It is doubtful to say that ordinary people bitcoin will bring what is good. And paypal is not very noticeable here. Because it is possible to analyze the surveys that will tell how many people use the Internet. And then it will be clear who is all you need.

Yet paypal, unlike bitcoin, a stronger position in the world and occupies the paypal one of the most common payment systems around the world. Therefore, even from this we can draw conclusions.

A lot of the recent noise rose around paypal nd therefore really more security in bitcoin. Save your savings can be more reliably with bitcoin.

Hard to say who will, but I'd go with bitcoin only if it does not die out. I think it will beat any other competition if it stays up and competing. Eventually it will catch up and surpass paypal too.
But as of now and maybe in the next 5 years, its gonna be paypal.

Prospects for bitcoin is really very good, but it seems to me that there must be an alternative to always. Sweaty that the monopoly on the market never leads to good results.

Paypal is a company, that is centralized, worldwide operating in payment service and bitcoin is a decentralized universal digital money. How can anyone compare these different things?

To date, all the wins paypal, because it is a payment system occupies almost half of the world, and people are at it quite a lot. But compared with paypal, Bitcoin is very small. But the future of Bitcoin for a lot longer.

We still use paypal, but Bitcoin himself will make the problem. Bitcoin currency is not only, but also a system that processes transactions with it. Here it is, and wag experience problems due to the limitations that make Bitcoin unique.

Choose especially between this or that is not worth. Because paypal is well complements the Bitcoin. For example Change Bitcoin via Paypal is possible for the currency USD with a minimum commission of online in this exchanger.

For years, I use paypal and tell you that their service is quite loyal to the users. I can not see that that is reminiscent of a scam. Moreover, no one advocates invest money in paypal.

Bitcoin itself is self-sufficient and does not need to transfer or change it to another currency. Bitcoin in the future in general will destroy all payment systems.

I dont think so , yes bitcoin is innovative and profitable currency but everyone cant use it just like fiat.for geek it is best currency to trade with.

usually protocols last longer than internet enterprises

PayPal is only an intermediary between buyers and sellers, it's a payment processor while the bitcoin is a currency though it may not be considered to be currency by most of the people but it's the fact that it's been designed as a complete currency in itself and to be used as such. Bitcoin needs no payment processors. Bitcoin is here to stay for sure. No wonder that it puts an end to the need of any payment processors like the one in question. But for that to happen bitcoin has to be globally accepted by each and everyone and that doesn't seem too far from happening.

PayPal and Bitcoin are far two different things, so comparing will not be a good idea but yeah people nowadays are shifting from PayPal due to their restrictions, but PayPal is quite good among buyers and sellers. Bitcoin on the other hand is a great growing currency. And currently I believe is a great Investment opportunity.But choosing any one between this two will be a bad idea.

Bitcoin the best virtual money

always use bitcoin
the best digital curency

Both of these will stay with a long time, because there is a fundamental difference between them (payment and currency). Precisely paypal strongly supports bitcoin in their platform. I think it's pretty obvious.

I agree that bitcoin and paypal slightly different concepts. I do not understand how they can compare or contrast.

This is like comparing apples to oranges because bitcoin is more like a real currency while paypal is just a third party who processed payment from their customers and then charges fees so in terms of usability bitcoin has every advantages over paypal with the lower fees alone to transfer money already gives bitcoin the higher appeal plus the other benefits like being an investment.

Most likely it is the possibility of a limited user has in mind when it comes to relationships bitcoin and paypal. Although in reality it is not the same thing, only a means to help each other.

bitcoin

Paypal and bitcoin, they are two different concepts and not only. So that it is inappropriate to oppose them.

Bitcoin is a currency and only one can say self-sufficient. But paypal allows items all currencies in the world on your system. Thus bitcoin can be expensive itself. A paypal charges for all the transactions of different currencies.

is this a match to the death?

Then PayPal would win hands down, with their use of fees

I love both payments. Both are secured in their own way but bitcoin is more open source and has lesser fees than paypal payments.  ;D

I think that is good for your bitcoin because of its originality, by paypal too popular and I do not think that they can be considered competitors. Yet we can say that paypal has more customers than bitcoin.

Bitcoin and paypal are different from each other. Paypal process transactions for example, shopping online will be the best one for this. Paypal is the middleman from consumer between the seller. Bitcoin is a virtual money where we can use in exchange for goods or services.

I really agree with you. Between them is a big difference, and even to raise the question in this form is simply wrong. But apparently people too carried away with the idea of ​​replacing all bitcoin currency and even payment systems. But I think it's a bad idea. Bitcoin is a currency for the network, and no more.

If there is already talk about how and to whom to than pleasant to work, then it is possible to answer the question that choosing just one. But if we talk about real things, I like to say that I make money using bitcoin. And already I buy goods via paypal for other currencies. Choice of service is much greater in other currencies rather than in bitcoin.

Everyone keeps saying that Bitcoin is the best digital currency when in fact it is not. Its just the most widely know. Bitcoin transactions can take hours while paypal is instant.

Bitcoin has a long way to go.

Even now there are better alternatives but once those systems get bogged down with users the same thing will happen.. long transaction times.

If you go with Paypal, you are going to to pay........ pal!

I prefer to use LTC for all my transactions on teh interwebz.

Its accepted by some payment systems and if I can use it I do over bitcoin.

I would prefer bitcoin than paypal. Paypal is reversible unlike bitcoin.In bitcoin, once the payment or process has been done the process can't be reverse while paypal can be reverse eventhough month have passed. That is why many people in my country would not deal if it is from paypal.

Fuck PayPal.

PayPal could process bitcoin payments as well.Paypal for the win

I prefer bitcoin from paypal on BTC

Compare and contrast the general bitcoin and paypal does not make sense. It is in fact two different things. Just bitcoin can pay for the services without interest, but the speed of payment paypal another.

Paypal has control of you money once it hits your account with them.
They can either let you send it somewhere or they can just simply hold it and tell you that you can not do anything with it.
I hate that way that you can not have anything to say if that happens.

Not only accountability throughout the payment system is the difference from the bitcoin. Paypal generally deals with all currencies, so to work without supervision, they simply can not practically. A bitcoin is a centralized and safe-haven currency.

If you keep all your savings into Bitcoin, then definitely you can evade taxes and, moreover, it is a kind of attachment of their money on future earnings. But paypal does not allow this.

Securitywise I will go for PayPal but bitcoins payments comes with low transaction fees so it will depend on what I want to pay. I will use both as and when I need to.

Perhaps in the future bitcoin completely replace all payment systems, unless users abandon them in favor of cryptocurrency. But this is a very long process. Members bitcoin very little to dictate terms.

Hard to say who will, but I'd go with bitcoin only if it does not die out.

All remain in their places. Bitcoin is on his, paypal, on his. I think that every system has its users and that they are happy. We know that paypal is more popular.

I used paypal on a few occasions, but it was possible to realize that it may cost more to the user. While bitcoin has very low fees and a convenient, easy to use, payment system.

PAYPAL VS Bitcoin
Who will be the winner is Bitcoin because bitcoin have a system that is not owned by paypal. Paypal banking system using a rigid, orthodox system of finance, only the excess paypal is a transaction or online payment tool.
On the other hand Bitcoin own systems more intelligent, efficient, and not difficult. Now many of the developing countries are already taking and legalize Bitcoin as legal tender. And of course the price of Bitcoin is much higher than the Dollar.

I hate PayPal so much as a Powerseller on eBay back in the day!
Refunds, refunds, refunds, As a seller you get scammed hard. I remember the day i stopped using PayPal and did accept eGold. For a view weeks it worked and then eBay told me i can not accept eGold and start thinking about using PayPal. >:(

http://teamlaw.net/images/e-gold/elementalsticker2.gif

you are right, PayPal is very expensive to use. Why pay a lot of fees when you can just use Bitcoins and not have to pay large commissions

that is like comparing

USD vs JPMorgan

??????

Yes, I also think that it is impossible to oppose what eikak not connected. Bitcoin is a system that is independent of other payment systems. Paypal is also able to operate without Bitcoins. Each user chooses what he likes more than

You can choose a course between Bitcoin and paypal, who is closer or what people enjoy a greater degree. But perhaps the number of members paypal says about the choice, because bitcoin is just superfluous goods today and sell it for a different currency.

Not for the first time back and this issue would like to understand what is the difference and why it is necessary to compare the bitcoin and paypal. Each is in his element and efficiently performs its functions. I think it's right.

If bitcoin after some time he will be sent to the bench and defending its leading position in the market of currency, then paypal will lose its relevance and naturally there will be no need. But today the situation is different and paypal allows you to pay off any existing currency anywhere in the world ..

Such actions raise questions from users and to reconsider their views on paypal. But what choice do at this moment, when decided to leave to use paypal. Are there members of this service to more worthy of priority.

I quite agree with your findings and opinion has very rational. That's just all this will be in the future. If we consider the real state of things, paypal has more weight in the financial system than bitcoin, but I understand that this situation may change and it is very fast in the direction of bitcoin.

Bitcoin. But more people use Paypal. It depends on what you want to do.

I think after applying segwit paypal lose huge part of income and go bankrupt

bitcoin is better. i still dont understand why people use paypal more

What bitcoin need to fix is the transaction speeds. Yesterday after waiting for 18 hours my 0.343btc got its first conformation (paid 0.0005btc fee)

I had to send the transaction manual to the miners, otherwise i was still waiting.  A other transaction of 0.46 btc took 12 hours for this first Confirmation. I payed 0.0003btc fee. 3times the wallet suggested i do. (I also had to send this transaction directly to the miners manually)

This needs to be fixed first

Try looking at the unconfirmed transactions, someone/they is spamming alot of transactions.

Last time i look at it was around 60k unconfirmed txs

screw paypal, its a service for scammers.

For what I can understand spamming transaction is expensive, is that correct?

Bitcoin for ever , paypal can be reversible.

PayPal can support bitcoin payment if the staff allowed it. Also, this thread is wrong because bitcoin is a currency while PayPal is just a company that process currency or provide a payment method similar to credit/debit cards.

Yes, there was a PayPal test sub site they deleted.

Had a lot of problem with PayPal, great if you're a customer, not so great if your a business. 
We got ripped off loads of times, people would order, then deny it.  Because we didn't have
a physical product to deliver to an address, we lost out every time.  I'd never use PayPal again.

If you have a business, and you send out more expensive stuff, PayPal will help you to get in financial trouble. Trust me was a Powerseller Untill 2008, I ended the Business due to charge-backs.

Well I think bitcoin will stay longer I wish I am right on this one,
but for real I really wish that it would last forever I mean there are plenty of people who are using it,
and they are using it for good purpose to earn for their family .

Paypal = unable to use due to scam
Bitcoin = can use anywhere its accepted although can be used in scams due to its anonymity

I think paypal will stay longer since its not volatile like bitcoin is. Bitcoin has a lot of problems in its future that could end up in its crashing, the goverments could but a ban over bitcoin stopping all legal businesses from using it and accepting bitcoin causing it to crash. A bitcoin dump could happen causing a bubble to pop. 

I would say PayPal would be losing easily to bitcoin, it's still big but the growth potential is low unlike BTC which is just starting to get popularity, PayPal might be leading "if still" for now, but BTC is taking the first place IMO.

Bitcoin vs PayPal is not right for me. The two offer different services. The innovators they bring are different from each other.
Bitcoin invented a new currency.

Bitcoin is winner and paypal looser forever :P they deserve that with their poor services :D.Paypal is blocking so many paypapl account and they have so ugly TOS rules which I really hate.They cant change account from business to personal if somebody did mystake you need pay them for that what is so bad rule,also bitcoin is anonymously,it is future value and paypal is past forever.

In general, you can use both paypal and bitcoin. Although in my opinion paypal can no longer offer services as today financial world holds not only bitcoin and other currencies of the world.

Despite the fact that the real currency is still a very important role in our lives, but bitcoin I have more confidence and I would be completely passed on the money. But apparently it has very early or it will never happen.

One would assume that bitcoin and paypal are two different things, but nevertheless, each of them allows greater opportunities and better services. We can say that paypal and bitcoin individual benefits each other.

Bitcoin is a currency and paypal is a payment system all existing currencies worldwide. So here on the basis of this we can draw conclusions.

Keep shopping or payment orders using paypal and have never been disappointed. By bitcoin payment is not necessary to apply. For me, bitcoin is a commodity with which I earn money.

Paypal for sellers is like I Go Chop Your Dollar : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kJOuvEcarNs

Agreed.  ;D The limitations they put on your account for anything they deem "suspicious" are brutal. There's a serious need for competition in the space of online transactions that I think bitcoin can fill given enough time.

I think it is difficult to answer because both are growing strongly over the internet. Paypal is a company active in the field of electronic commerce, specializing in providing payment services and money transfer via the Internet. It was founded in December 1998 with the original name was Confinity, a company developing security software for handheld devices, existed and developed until now. And Bitcoin is a digital currency, electricity, its decentralized nature, is encrypted and was born in 2008. After nearly 10 years of development, the value of Bitcoin has been continuously increasing and are gradually popular with everybody. I think both can survive longer on the internet because their features are very useful.

I do not think you need to do from bitcoin and paypal competitors. Everyone has their own customers. And even so they use both, yet are pros bitcoin and paypal both.

Did any problems or talk about the fact that payment systems cheating nothing but tricks of the competitors. Such actions have always been poor people. So I think you have to be careful.

Careful you have to be on each payment system. In addition, do not try to carry out fraudulent transactions using payment systems. and then your account will never be blocked

It depends on what one needs, including opportunities. But the video right.

To be objective paypal is still much more popular bitcoin. This is not the fault of cryptocurrency. Just bitcoin is still quite young and a very small number of users. But I think that bitcoin and paypal can work together without having to go the way of each other.

It is difficult to say whether bitcoin retain their advantage in terms of accounts of anonymity unlike paypal. All payment systems have their own environment distinctiveness, and thus can deal with bitcoin. I think that the formal recognition of bitcoin, just require to deprive their members of it. Only such concessions would have to go.

One has a TOS..

http://www.newsbtc.com/2015/11/26/bitcoin-to-paypal-exchange-against-terms-of-acceptable-use-policy/

by the way this was not new.
The rule existed when the hit me sending from BTCe back in 2013
and i found a guy here who got the same email for PP in 2012 ..so this is OLD news !

You can use one or the other but not both.


So the smart thing to do would be to head over to the market section here ASAP and sell your BTC for PP funds.  :D :D ;D

I couldn't agree more !
Both of them can fall, both of them can rise , although PayPal is at the maximum potential, being just a business.
Bitcoin , being a currency , going TO THE MOON , has some more advantages, but what we can observe is that paypal has been used a lot in getting bitcoin, so we should respect them both .

Did someone said MOON     ;D ;D ;D

I hate paypal.
It is a thing that should of never existed in the first place.
Many of my friends have had some funds frozen for nothing more then sending to those ptc sites so it affected their accounts. But they got them out after verification but still not being access their funds for days on end is not fair to them for relying on others accounts to be verified and clean too.
Not a good and balanced system I would say. :-[

iam always choose bitcoin
but if buy in store online iam use paypal, because is very low or nothing store online support payment use bitcoin
iam find store online same, amazon, ebay or more is equal, iam not found store online use bitcoin

Well, what else would, if paypal has an audience of users and their use of service possible anywhere in the world as opposed to bitcoin. Therefore, you need to decide with their thoughts and understand what is bitcoin currency to a range of users and no more.

I agree. Compare is not entirely correct. However, I increasingly prefer bitcoin. Perhaps bitcoin and PayPal will continue to exist, but PayPal will lose popularity.

PayPal will not lose its popularity until there is a fiat currency. PayPal is created for a fiat currency.
Bitcoin is a completely different system. I do not understand why they compare

haha dude, pp and btc is on another category.. but i will chose btc, coz btc is more simple than pp..

I prefer bitcoin over paypal or any other service.. bitcoin has benefit of increasement in rates..

bitcoin still the best digital curency

Travelers today probably using paypal because it is the most popular and most successful but no doubt in the future bitcoin will be no. 1

Bitcoin is better but not popular this days maybe more years later it will pass paypal.

i think bitcoin its good and easy than bitcoin .

Bitcoin is surely better than the paypal and we all know that a lot of features surely.

no doubt that paypal is still the best for today but I guess bitcoin have a better and more high technology so it will pass paypal in the future,

Paypal very dangerous. The regulation of paypal system is not transparent so your money can be in pending status whenever. So I'd rather Bitcoin than Paypal.

fuck paypal i got scammed many times, this is why i like bitcoin.

hmmm.. paypal just process the payment of its users and in return they get profit off the fees, however bitcoin is simply a currency and paypal can accept bitcoin as payment currency but not yet implimented

Probably paypal will stay longer since it has many users in the future and bitcoin is very volatile

If I prefer to bitcoin because the high price is also easy in running it

Paypal and bitcoin is not a same thing. Paypal is a payment company where bitcoin is a currency system. So we can't compare them. But for me bitcoin is best.

scammed as buyer?  I guess scammed as seller right?

Bitcoin has a lot more potential!

paypal was and will be good payment deal. Bitcoin otherwise - not so stable :'( 

If bitcoin is considered only as a method of payment - then I agree with you. But if you consider that bitcoin is her and the currency, then bitcoin is much better. Due to the fact that the price of bitcoin is constantly growing. PayPal does not increase your money on accounts

yeahh, agree.
maybe will better if compare paypal with blockchain or coinbase, right?

i think for "now", i will chose paypal, more trusted for me..

Paypal is very complicated while bitcoin is very easy to use

i think bitcoin

The fact is that I'm not very good at this time and use the PayPal payment system positively and at the same time I can make good money with Bitcoin. It seems to me that we need to calm down and begin to combine in one and the other. Although PayPal and Bitcoin have two different concepts and the extent to which they are used.

Paypal

I'm surprised how for some of you is hard to work with Paypal. It's easy af, and Bitcoin will stay longer for sure.

bitcoin

bitcoin for savings, paypal for spending

Not a comparison at all, but i really like Paypal, never had problems with 'em.

Bitcoin will stay longer, but i prefer PayPal.

Bitcoin is much better than PayPal.

Paypal and bitcoin, they are two different concepts and not only. So that it is inappropriate to oppose them.

Of course bitcoin, bitcoin can be a good investment

Yes but bitcoin is not liquid as paypal. If you have money in your paypal, you're guaranteed to get the cash. In bitcoin, no.

i feel bitcoin with escrow will be the best option people can ever get.. but yea thats in near future 2020 perhaps

I believe Bitcoin will live longer, blockchain is a technology here to stay.

Bitcoin will obviously will, no cost makes the difference

PayPal will always support Fiat. I can not understand why comparing these electronic payment systems. They need both. Only for different purposes

Keep shopping or payment orders using paypal and have never been disappointed. By bitcoin payment is not necessary to apply. For me, bitcoin is a commodity with which I earn money.

I think both of them already have different categories. so we can not to compare it.

It is like comparing a country with a mountain, really weird question. What answers do you expect?

Bitcoin better

of course bitcoin its better than paypal with the fastest transaction

Anonymouse
Fast transaction
Low fee
Do you still use paypal?

For me, in many respects better BTC. The same Paypal does not guarantee anonymity + there are plenty of various problems and there is with this payment system. Yes BTC has its own risk, but as for me it is justified.
