Paypal is not likely to be accepted at any exchange for the reasons stated here:

I do wish there was another solid competitor to mtgox.
Do not waste your time debating whether Bitcoin can work. It does work.

"Early adopters will profit" is not a sufficient condition to classify something as a pyramid or Ponzi scheme. If it was, Apple and Microsoft stock are Ponzi schemes.

There is no such thing as "market manipulation." There is only buying and selling.

If gabgab's keyboard broke, would all these troll threads finally disappear?

Wouldn't use a paypal service anyhow, don't care for people monitoring and controlling my money how ever they see fit.

It is prohibited by PayPal's Acceptable Use Policy (IMHO, a flawed policy).
