Hello, Sorry for the noob question, but i never used paypal to sell or buy BTC, I only used paypal to get paid in Odesk:, so what is this chargeback with paypal? How can someone scam you buying your BTC with paypal?Thanks! BR Gondel
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. Credits cards will far harder to come by when the next Dollar-debt-bubble bursts. I've already had my credit card rights rescinded by Bank of Evil America, it was a Platinum Plus and I've been with that bank for 15 years, since they bought Fleet. Banks just don't give a fuck anymore, I'm apparently too risky to do business with now because I have student loan debt. Crypto is going to fuck their whole evil system up, and that's why I love it.

"If you can't beat em, join em!" PayPal knows they're beaten, they didn't get rich by being naive.

yeap, bitcoin is a huge notion, and they're starting to realize that they have a big competitor waiting to give them to whoop down. Rather than fighting a meaningless battle, finding ways to survive based on mutual benefit, seems to the way.

We still don't know for sure. There has been no official announcement from Paypal regarding this matter. What John Donahoe said might be his personal opinion, and not the official position of his company. ![Angry](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/angry.gif)

I really do not see how bitcoin and paypal are even compatible.
One method is reversible and one is not. It is really as simple as that.

In case they integrate Bitcoin to their payment system, Paypal will carry a warning that the payments once made can't be cancelled or refunded. That means that there will not be any buyer protection.

Hopefully two factor authentication from physical device not connected to internet is required first, so no bad publicity for Bitcoin when paypal is exploited with weak user security

I think they'll be a pretty good idea too.

You can always get cash from Bitcoin ATM's if you need some

Bitcoin credit cards, ok nvm better not give them banks any ideas bitcoin credit is a VERY bad idea for multiple reasons first of all bitcoin and fractional reserve do not mix very well, and secondly you should NEVER get a debt in bitcoin. Debt in fiat hardly matters, just wait a few years and you'll have to pay much less, in terms of purchasing power, debt in bitcoin may soon proof to be impossable to ever pay off.

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 think paypal will act like an escrow service.

Does anyone else think that we need a "Trusted Buyer" system integrated with bitcoin and escrow? Fuck a trusted seller. Trusted sellers can command higher prices. In the case of the "Trusted Buyer", sellers can reduce prices with the expectation of reduced headaches (disputes [bitcoin escrow] - or chargebacks in the case of PayPal). I'd expect something like this on the market soon that will rival ebay (minus the "PowerSeller"). A good bitcoin seller gives an accurate description of their product and delivers as agreed. A trusted buyer releases escrow immediately if the terms are met.
I think the biggest hurdle to adoption for debit purchases (cash, bank account, bitcoin) purchases is third party trust; which unfortunately we still need to some extent. Escrow solves this. It is essentially what Paypal does and gets paid handsomely. The second hurdle is for the seller to trust that he/she will actually get the agreed upon price in a timely fashion. It's going to happen.
Things like OpenBazaar are likely the future, but running a client that manages financial transactions on a PC is not going to be in any common man's wheelhouse anytime soon. I've been in bitcoin since early 2013 and still refuse to run QT, multibit, or any other client on my desktop. Most consumers will not do this.
