bitcoinmania.eu/paypal-bitcoin-integration-coming-very-soon-says-ebay-ceo-international-business-times-uk.htmlNo one in their right mind would use BTC to pay for anything on PayPal. The credit card chargeback protection has always been the front lines of consumer protection from seller fraud on PayPal. Buyer wins 99% of the time. Most likely there's no way to tell how the buyer is paying. However if there was a way to require BTC payment, that would be a game changer for sure. Because PayPal's policy is not to interfere with intangible goods. Buyer is basically out of luck. Scamming will go the other way as sellers receiving PayPal payments will be secure from chargebacks. Then there's the issue about withdrawls in BTC and having your PayPal account hacked. Who will receive BTC payments? PayPal or the seller? It will be interesting to see how this will work at the end. Either way there's probably going to be scamming as usual. I honestly don't think will happen anytime soon. A LOT of stuff needs to be tweaked to PP's current business model in order for BTC to flow through their system. I agree here, even if they wanted to implement it immediately, there is so much that they would have to do. Not to mention all the government stuff that they would have to register and make sure they are in compliance.

I wonder if they will allow currency conversion then, i.e. buying Bitcoin with your Paypal dollars.

Call me a cynic but I can't see this happening anytime soon though I hope it does. They'll obviously be looking at how to implement it but this may take some time.

If there is a charge-back, PayPal will expect you to cover it. If you don't they freeze/close your account same as if it were fiat. Not sure what you think would be different.
PayPal will certainly incorporate all the features related to fiat into BTC. Such service is called escrow. The buyers pay BTC to merchants through PayPal.After the buyers receive the products or service and confirm the buying, the merchants get the btc payment.Paypal made decision of charge-back.

Send you PayPal payment. You send BTC to buyer. Buyer does a chargeback from credit card. Your BTC got stolen. That's a simple way of putting it.

paypal funds often suspend, I was not too happy with paypal, because it was 2 times my account is locked and I lost money, so if BTC and may relate bgus paypal, but paypal should be wise again to the user, the user is often impaired by their
and most feared many scammers on paypal

Paypal already has a pretty much turn-key solution available to them if they decide to acquire Coinbase. Getting bought out is a very viable endgame for a VC-stage company, and there are business relationships in common between the two organizations already.
Actually yeah, why doesn't anyone talk about this as a likely scenario? I hadn't even thought about it but now that you mention it I can almost guarantee the VCs have this in mind almost exactly. They know how they multiply their investments.
