I give it two months before there are real problems between Paysius and their fiat banking partners.  It won't be their fault, of course, but this will not last.
You confuse Paysius with Paymium.

As the French saying goes : "who tries nothing gets nothing".

Also quoted, let's check back in two months. I don't really see why this would fail, there's business to be made by everyone, re-read all that has been posted about the MACARAJA v. CIC case. The judges had absolutely no problem with Bitcoin, they had a problem with Karpeles arguing that he did not need any license to do what he did.

We did our homework, you can never control everything, but we did what we had to.

No, we don't. We need other ppl use Bitcoin as a medium of exchange for goods, not for other currencies.
Go tell that to all the people that want to get some Bitcoin.
Go tell that to all the merchants that want to be able to accept Bitcoin without their accountant getting a heart-attack.
Go make the same stupid comment to the people that are sick of Western Union fees and who just want to send some money to their family.

Of course we need more people to accept Bitcoin and trade it directly for goods and services, but that doesn't mean we don't need a healthier exchange ecosystem with established and solid foundations.

If you do not need such a service than you are free not to use it.
