paypal or bitcoin?

[Yakamoto]

I like bitcoin but paypal is better.

Each medium of payment has its place in society. Bitcoin for the largely-divisible, easy transactions from location to location, and the more or less definitive value that comes with it, as it currently stands. PayPal, on the other hand, is great for transferring fiat currency to different locations, and is used by many people throughout the world, making it a great system to transfer funds.

Bitcoin and paypal on the next years can be a support for each one,paypal can be the way to convert bitcoin into fiat,but the fact they limit accounts may be one way out to these team wont happen anytime.

Both of them are good and both of them have pros and cons.
One of the feature that i like paypal is that it is instant and buyer protection.
And the feature that i like bitcoin is the "anonymity" and the community using bitcoin.

yeah bitcoin cannot replicate the features of paypal to the protection seller and the buyer
sorry I said anything less weighty. but if it happens. a lot of new members will join

Which one is better for you it really depends on which end you are on, e.g. if you are sending money and awaiting for an item to come, Paypal is suitable for you. But if you are the sender of the item, you would prefer irreversible money transfer and that's Bitcoin.

I am a seller and a buyer and I would prefer Bitcoin.  Paypal has to much control over your account and what can and can not be completed with them.  I do not like PayPal having control over my money with out my say.

PayPal accounts are tied directly to your bank account or credit card and PayPal is a regulated financial institution in many countries. PayPal payments are not in any way anonymous and it is not recommended you make purchase using PayPal that you would not be comfortable with the authorities knowing about.


A history of every bitcoin transaction ever made is available right here on this site. However transactions do not need to be tied to a bank account or individual and they are essentially anonymous if some basic precautions are taken. My Wallet can hold up to 1000 unique bitcoin addresses and it is recommended you change addresses regularly to avoid leaving a trail.

nah, bitcoin does not need other payment system or the help of fiat in anyway, they can only be useful at the beginning to help adoption spread faster

but the ultimate goal should be to use bitcoin directly, without the need of other services

I think so far its better to hold some bitcoin and other cryptoos

Bitcoin should find it's place on the market in connection with payment processing. As of it's current speed when confirmations takes much more time then fiat card transactions and even more then cash transactions, bitcoin should find it's market share where this speed is acceptable and the cost is more relevant. One of this possible transactions is the international money transfer but maybe there can be some other possible transaction as well.
You can't use bitcoin yet in shops directly because of this speed, but meanwhile developers are working on a speedy direct payment solution (or I hope that they are working on it) we can use bitcoin debit cards to do speedy payments at merchants.

beware about new "shitcoin" & don't invest and don't hold "shitcoin"

I know bitcoin can be the new currency and payment processor without need any support,but i believe to bitcoin achieve mainstream on the next years they will need to have some deal ,this way all will know about bitcoin and will be able to use them,then one day we will wake and be able to pay anywhere with ours bitcoins.

Paypal is just to expensive. That's why i go for bitcoin.

Sure paypal is real time, and also international, but the fees are ridiculous.

If you sent to a relative it is cost free. So your logic don't applies there. The speed of paypal (instant) is also very good.
For me paypal wins. Bitcoin needs to increase it's speed processing..

Transaction time is instant, confirmation times aren't. Also, changing a few lines on the code just to compensate for the speed and sacrificing the security is a no-no. It can be developed further, but changing it whole isn't what bitcoin needs as of this moment. Bitcoin compared to bitcoin is like an armored truck compared to a courier.

[Pollak]

It's about money for all of us. Having a same easy way of transfering money, it comes down to money.
And yes we all know who the winner is when we talk about the fees..

[tn211]

Bitcoin offcourse.
It's cheaper, fast and anonymous.
There is no way the current paypal setup can even compete with bitcoin... ever

[Ryananda]

I like bitcoin paypal was good when he come out now its all in crypto

Lighten up paypal will slowly be eliminated, because they have started obsolete
time for new technologies, new payment system, with bitcoin

Yes I really agree with you that paypal is obsolete
Or maybe bitcoin and paypal mutual cooperation and create a new crypto
