In September 2014, PayPal announced it would accept Bitcoin via integration with Braintree, and the same month announced partnerships with Coinbase, BitPay and GoCoin. Via the PayPal Payments Hub merchants could use customizable APIs to integrate Bitcoin into their shops for digital goods. At the time, it released a video hinting at Bitcoin integration.
Whether or not PayPal will pursue a more aggressive Bitcoin policy has yet to be seen. In 2014, weighing in already on Bitcoin currency regulations, the company told the Australian Senate:
Well, if they decide to integrate with some of these companies as you have said, that would obviously help enhance the usage of bitcoin by most of these merchants just like bitpay has always been doing. I am pretty sure they understand that they are missing a lot and would want to see how they can tap into it for their benefits coupled with what they have always been doing, so I would not be surprised.
