For me paypal is just a payment system where you link your credit card and use it to buy things online. Plus I don't like the dispute feature of paypal because scammers can get the upper hand to the transaction.

On the other hand bitcoin for me is better because not only it can be use as payment but also earn from it.
You got this right I also like for this we are safe from scammers and I can transact money without any problem now in future its going to be good earning system for me also because now I am trying to settle my bitcoins selling buying system

Once a transaction has 6 confirmations, it is extremely unlikely that an attacker without at least 50% of the network's computation power would be able to reverse it.

Paypal are covering and helping scammers with their dispute and reversible transactions. Unlike with bitcoin, once you send some bitcoins to someone you can't cancel it so you really need to be a responsible bitcoin user. And sure thing that bitcoin has a lot of usage than with this old crap, paypal and crazy charges us high fees for each transaction.

In Paypal disputes the seller can also participate in the dispute resolution. Hence, he can defend his side. If the seller is really legit, then he has a fighting chance to keep the money paid to him.

most of the reason mentioned by people why they're using paypal is because its coverage which almost all of online store in this planet are accepting paypal while bitcoin is still not so popular as paypal,this is the factor that make they still use paypal even paypal could freeze their account immediately or getting tricked by chargebacks feature,sad but true

That's for sure as they do not want to be scam online, when big money is involve especially if you are a businessman you would use a legal payment processor for your security and although the fee is really big, you would not mind it so much. Anyway, we cannot force them to use bitcoin and I'll be happy if bitcoin and paypal will stay around.

i like using both...bitcoin is better
I agree bitcoin is better than paypal. And I have some feeling that paypal is going to adopt bitcoin. SO that clearly says that bitcoin is better than paypal. Because if paypal is better than bitcoin, then the developers of bitcoin are the ones who are going to ask paypal to adopt their service. But it tends that paypal is begging for bitcoins adoption.
Personally I’m doubtful of that precisely for the reasons you state, if PayPal did that it will be like accepting defeat they will be saying to the world bitcoin beat us and now in order to survive we need to accept it and become part of our fierce adversary.

Bitcoin is created for decentralization of funds, anonymity features, fast transactions and all those good stuffs but never to take down Paypal. There's no competition going on. The bitcoin network is not managed by a single company. It never intended to fight against other payment methods that exists. If Paypal starts accepting bitcoin, then it's okay. Bitcoin's not going to mock Paypal for doing that.

It may happen. There are plenty of examples of business that did not go with the flow and never innovated that resulted to their downfall. Look at Nokia, it was the biggest cellphone producer. Where are they now? This might happen to Paypal, we will never know for sure.

The competition between PayPal and bitcoin system has started when bitcoin provides a solution for online payments.

Bitcoin has all the features above mentioned, but all the features are possible because it is existing online whereas PayPal is doing business mainly targeting online users.

Maybe bitcoin was not invented to compete PayPal but it will happen because only fittest will dominate and will survive.

Ah a very nice comparison , i wish it could happen to paypal lol
Have so bad experience using paypal in the past thats why i curse paypal like this
essentially indeed bitcoin much better than paypal as paypent processor
People just not yet aware and ready on how to use bitcoin , most people who hear bitcoin have a high doubt , as media always make a something bad rumour about bitcoin.

It is true bitcoin was not created for such lowly objective, taking down PayPal, but even if that was not the objective, if bitcoin keeps growing it may end up doing exactly that.

Its not going to end any system or thing because every object has his own risks and disadvantages all can survive in this competition hope these can also do as long they can do in future but bitcoin is doing too much for many like me

We're not talking about ending a system here. Just which do you think is better. But, I agree with you. Bitcoin and Paypal can co-exist. They do not have to kill each other. Both of them has their own purpose.

Yes it is true that the best option for buyers is the paypal because they can refund the money if they do not received the product that they asked for but
   in terms of fast transaction of money I guess the best one is the bitcoin but it needs an escrow for they can trust you that much.

When you buy online paypal is way better since they are legitimate company, but if you are gambling and transacting on illegal activities no question bitcoin fits on your needs. Bitcoin is very popular for gambler because they have all the freedom to gamble in different sites without restriction.

I have been told that don't accept payments via paypal, is that right?
Because when buyer will have his bitcoins then he can claim back money from paypal by saying that i haven't received desired product.
since some of the complicated workin the bitcoin to convert into fiat but still it is more better than paypal .
in paypal any amount of money may br deduce from your bank account with prior notice . PayPal payments are reversible .
so if we are making deals with Bitcoin with escrow then we have the bitcoin as a better option than paypal .

i agree with you that bitcoin is really fit on our needs and we can easily use bitcoin for gambling and bitcoin are getting more popularity and more people are adopting bitcoins in huge amount and i think that bitcoin transaction is much more easy than other transaction.

Bitcoin is better than paypal for me.
Paypal can easily be used to scam online buyers as I have experienced it 3x... ( i was a victim once..the other two attempts were unsuccessful)
With BITCOIN.. the wallet addresses are more secure and the transfer is immediate.
