you may all be missing the point
paypal is interested in BTC
dont forget they got Wences Casares on board
unless they plan to make PPcoin
dont forget about tax with crypto,
imagine if you shop online, and PP simply converts to crypto before paying seller
sellers can remove VAT from selling price
and buyers would never even know they are buying crypto/btc
it would all be seemless
PP will also save on tax, if it moves all funds around as crypto,
exhanging to fiat only when in their chosen low tax haven, if they even need to.
crypto for PP has big potential
but whether they would adopt BTC (which would be the smarter option)
or create their own and compete head on with BTC is anyone guess
The day paypal incorporates bitcoin, will be one massive leap for bitcoin
