Paypal, the eBay-owned mobile payment system and the world’s second biggest, announced that it would soon let customers pay in bitcoin, the virtual currency. The catch, for the moment, is that merchants will have to agree to accept the use of bitcoin, which for some could be problematic.

Where did they announce that they would soon be letting people pay with bitcoin? I haven't seen that anywhere but just a company releated to ebay/paypal. People seem to be getting their wires crossed.

Its a bit hard to believe as the nature of paypal is to reverse some payments, where bitcoin payments are non reversible, so it contradicts to what paypal is normally doing.
