Quote
Interviewer: Can I ask you a slightly left field question?

President: Sure.

Interviewr: Bitcoin, virtual currancies, what do you make of that?

President: So, I've been spending a lot of time looking at it and it's truly fascinating and actually the way the currency has been designed and the way that inflation is built in to pay for miners and all of that is truly fascinating. And I think for us at paypal is just a question of whether bitcoin will make its way to paypals funding instrument or not and we're kind of "thinking" about it really.

If you want to see BTC explode, PayPal needs to turn into a BTC exchange. And they know it, I just wonder if the banking system will try to slow that down. I mean they really regulated PayPal, almost to death, at their start. Perhaps their president has a soft spot for BTC. You can only keep the competition out for so long. What better way to last but integrate???

BTC = Black Swan.
BTC = Antifragile - "Some things benefit from shocks; they thrive and grow when exposed to volatility, randomness, disorder, and stressors and love adventure, risk, and uncertainty. Robust is not the opposite of fragile.

this was discussed months ago..

please try actually watching the video.

paypal never says it WILL be added.

yet another case of chinese whispers (words twisted with every person it passes to)

please refer to sources of the information before posting them.

Seems unlikely paypal going to ad bitcoin, when its edgier competition Dwolla won't allow funds to go to any bitcoin exchange/venue anymore
