Your $ in Paypal is just information stored and guaranteed by Paypal; likewise, your BTC in Bitcoin is just information stored and guaranteed by the Bitcoin protocol.  The difference is that Paypal can rewrite your balance at any time, and it usually isn’t $92 Quadrillion in your favor.  Paypal is a centralized way to move money and the benefits of that are numerous: buyer and seller protection, chargebacks, etc.  However, the abuse of centralized systems such as Paypal, Visa, and Mastercard has caused the average merchant to tack on ~10% premium on their prices to deal with associated transaction fees, and exponentially increased risks of fraud.  This is the exact reason why most brick and mortar institutions will offer a cash discount, and also a Bitcoin discount should they chose to accept Bitcoin.

well, I can tell you one story.

Before years, I ordered two BFL mining rigs. one paid by bitcoin, second one by paypal. and now, you can guess, what was recovered and what what lost forever. I hope, that you will find answer for your OP question.

you should prefer not posting bullshit like this post, just because it is paid by signature campaign.

regarding PP verification, it must be done only once for each card, so maybe once per 3-5 years, so no problem at all. if you really think, that bitcoin usage is easier then paypal, you should maybe start using paypal mobile app. it is fast, secure and super easy.

and you know what? when something goes wrong with paypal payment, there is always somebody, who can help you, refund you and stay on your side. with fancy bitcoin, you can be scammed by some motherfucker from another piece of world and literally nobody will help you. regarding anynomity...I have to laugh here. you are not using mail on some major provider like google or yahoo? you don't have smartphone, SIM card, VISA card? you are going outside only with scarf? and finally, you think, that bitcoin is so called "anonymous" or make YOU anonymous?

i will have to agree on this with you paypal is widely accepted but there is not anything you can not buy with bitcoins any more if 10 business of same thing there are 8 accept paypal 2 of them must accept bitcoins  even those who dont accept bitcoins directly you can shop with bitcoins using some middle man like purse for amazon

they didn't accept any escrow during time of purchase (like 99.9% merchants/vendors). - but you know this, don't you?

I know, that you must post anything to get paid and you are blindly defending bitcoin in all circumstances, but time to time is cool to just go outside and ask so called "average" people about their opinion about paypal and bitcoin...maybe those will open you eyes, once you will leave your stupid small world of hunting posts here. now putting you back to ignore..

What? Bitcoin is overall more dangerous when you are buying stuff, a lot of websites that accept bitcoin are not profesional or big business therefore risky and since you can't call anyone to give you back your bitcoins there is nothing you can really do, you can't even go to the police, I mean you can but what can they do?

then the problem is not related to bitcoin but to the company that scammed, you, so your comparison with paypal is no sense here, since you're basically comparing BFL with paypal, and saying that paypal is better

not sure if trolling to be honest, and please stop with this "sig spam no sense" there is no spam here, from me, the only no-sense here is in your post

you didn't grasp my post at all, i said that if he used a trusted escrow who kept the money when he made the purchase, he would not have lost anything, since the escrow would only release the coins when you say that the goods arrived

paypal work as a intermediary, paypal is simply an escrow...

absolutely wrong, i always pay my web hosting bill with bit coins and i am with a well established and old company and also microsoft is accepting bitcoins people get scamed its nothing to do with bitcoins people get scamed even when they are dealing with fiat direct hand to hand

and about the chargeback yes its good bitcoins dont have it many scammers scam with paypal change back

is the same using paypal or bitcoin,
i will choose the majority in my country

you can not have your signature inside your post and you can not just post is after every post you made

I prefer bitcoin over anything else but since bitcoin isn't accepted as much as paypal is, I would have to choose paypal.
I would use bitcoin more if I had more option to pay with it.
you're right, for the moment is limited to use bitcoin buy something online,
Most merchants only accept paypal, no accepted bitcoin

Even we have realized that bitcoin has many advantages over PayPal, due to the lack of acceptance by many web sites and market giants, we are forced to use PayPal still. This lead for using both bitcoin and Paypal is the situation most of the bitcoiner is currently doing.

Yes. I too use both the payment methods.
As long as bitcoin goes main stream, we will be using both. But I prefer bitcoin as it's easy and hassle free. Except that bitcoin payment is irreversible,it has all the advantages.

Paypal as something like 90% of merchants,that mooves the big money online,the rest is shared with bitcoin and others services.We have a big community behind bitcoin,but we cant alone change the minds for those who sell or buy ,paypal currently protect the buyer and eat the seller,but well bitcoin has no benefict for any part besides the low fees.
