Skrill now lets you upload money via bitcoin

Anyone able to confirm who they use to determine the value of BTC? A lot of places use things like "1% fee" but are using a processor that also has their own fee, such that you're paying far more.

The issue is that while they do accept it, all they are doing is turning it back into fiat (selling it) most likely. That means when you buy BTC, you push the price up, when you convert it through Skrill, it gets pushed back down (in theory). But it does push the idea that it's a currency, rather than investment vehicle.

Regardless, having skrill accept bitcoin opens a lot of opportunities for Bitcoin itself. If bitcoin is successfully integrated and adopted by skrill this event can be a good precedent for other companies to accept bitcoin. If paypal will follow skrill that would be a major leap for bitcoin's acceptance. Buying and selling or investing doesn't matter, it's a good thing.

Im guessing they are partners with coinbase or bitpay?

Can anyone confirm is the rate decent for funds upload, if they use finex rate 1% would mean nothing.

Skrill now lets you upload money to your skrill account using bitcoin. The fee is 1%. The option is right there on the upload funds page. Go take a look if you have a skrill account!

Yes and the bitcoin's price use https://bitpay.com for convert automatic bitcoins to fiat on skrill, it is nice rate than other services are like bitcoin debit cards and we can make upload money to neteller account using bitcoins with same ways is like skrill too and all of them are same.

I guess not USD to BTC option yet, right? That one would be very nice and interesting. Does anyone know any cheap option to go between Paypal and BTC.

Did someone tried with Skrill (I know that it isn't possible on Neteller) to use the converted bitcoins with the card?
