Agree. With time and due dilligence, Bitcoin can become well known in a rapidly evolving world. It is still in its infancy, but once it becomes mature enough to take its step into the mainstream world, things would change drastically.

When this happens, merchants that once accepted PayPal, would become tempted to use Bitcoin due to its popularity and greater advantages than the latter. Low fees is of utmost importance, and if Bitcoin can deliver this and many more, it will become the top choice for everyday payments instead of traditional payment processors like PayPal.

But as you said, it would be up to wait and see what will happen in the future. In the meantime, we could focus on supporting and spreading the word about Bitcoin to make it closer towards mainstream acceptance. Just my thoughts.

Currently paypal is still stronger than bitcoin, this is because many of the banks that supported and accepted paypal. Even most sites only accept only paypal, it seemed like it took more than 5 years from now to overcome paypal.

Ok, think about what Paypal actually is:

Paypal is an extended, user friendly version of a normal wired transaction. That is also fast, convenient, easy to use and safe at the same time. However, the problem with it is that it is still connected to a valid bank account or debit/credit card. Therefore, the question that we should be asking is: "Will bitcoin overcome normal currencies?". Bitcoin is basically a version of paypal, but uses a different currency. It offers similar features while it is based off a different network in the background. Its all virtual and decentralised, making it much more dependent on its users. Paypal is nothing more than a middleman that handles money between a seller and a customer, nothing else. It is still based off a normal currency (USD, AUD... etc). Bitcoin is an entirely new network of virtual currency.

That is certainly true, mate. Bitcoin has often been associated with illegal activities, due to things that happened in the past. Those things will never be forgotten, even if Bitcoin continues to rise in the future. One thing that a payments system needs is a good reputation, and user friendliness to achieve mainstream adoption.

While PayPal has been in the scene before Bitcoin, there is a possibility of the pioneer cryptocurrency to become closer to tradtional payment processors. It may co-exist with existing payment solutions for fiat, but may never replace fiat itself. We could combine the goodness of decentralization with Bitcoin, and the convenience of traditional banking with PayPal, to manage our wealth efficiently.

Nevertheless, it is up to this date where cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin have issues regarding scalability for the large masses. When this becomes fully solved while preserving decentralization, it could become a game changer as people would prefer to use it more than traditional payment processors like PayPal. Just my thoughts.

yes. it is possible to bitcoin to overcome paypal. when the awareness increases it happens to overcome but takes some time for that.

I don't think that is ever possible as paypal is more popular then bitcoins and it also has more users in compare to bitcoins and even almost all sites accepts paypal as a mode of payment which is totally missing with bitcoins at a moment.

a lot of shits are written. don't believe them

there are only stupid rumors.

Link?

You're talking about braintree which is old news:

So if paypal is adopting bitcoin means that bitcoin has overcome paypal?
It like saying biodiesel has overcome Chevron.

It's possible but far from reality. Paypal has already established its name as the leading online payment system. Every one talks about Paypal. It becomes a household term but remember that Bitcoin is catching up. Everyone, these days, is starting to talk about Bitcoin. What is bitcoin? How does it work? How to invest in bitcoin? All these questions can act as a vessel to drive bitcoin to the right direction. Just not sure if it's enough to overtake Paypal. Never underestimate a brand that rules the world.
