Do you think that sometime in the future, Bitcoin might overcome Paypal, as it scales in capacity and userbase over the years?
We already have the ability to create our own marketplace with OpenBazaar, that uses Bitcoin as its payment method, so it should be no surprise that the combination of these two may be a fierce competition for both eBay and Paypal.
Nevertheless, feel free to vote on the poll above and express your opinion about it, if desired.
Paypal is many steps further than bitcoin but we can't say that bitcoin will not pass paypal in the next decades.
But paypal is stronger and is used worldwide and in lots of website (not saying all), wherever we go to purchase something the next thing after the credit card form is the paypal checkout so if paypal would collaborate with bitcoin then there would be the strongest payment processor ever.
Paypal may be strong and fast but unfortunately not only is it centralised, it also allows chargebacks which makes it near incompatible with Bitcoin (where the possibility of near anonymity makes a lot of people attempt scams). Once Bitcoin's slow transaction problems are sorted with SegWit or something, it may well be able to surpass PayPal as in many aspects it is fundamentally better.
