BTC cannot and will not compete as a payment processor.
BTC lacks the ability to handle the sheer volume of transactions that the world needs.
I doubt BTC could handle Paypals daily load effectively,
we would be resorting to fees or long confirmation times.
It is important to note: current payment processors charge the merchant the fee.
In the case of BTC the consumer would be responsible for the fee/long confirmation time.
Nonsense. You're making some broad and uninformed declarations.
The irony in you calling my statements uninformed....

Perhaps one day
BTC will be to scale with a real payment processor, perhaps not.
No consumer is going to want to pay the fee with
BTC when visa/mastercard/paypal charges the consumer no fee.
We could ignore confirmations, this will lead to merchant distrust after a few scammers create a few apps to inject false transactions.
Leading back to a huge issue, The 10 minute confirmation time(greater without a fee).
The confirmation time for a working cryptocurrency should be 1ms with no fee.
Lastly, I am ignoring you. You called my declarations uninformed, while citing no references to backup your opposition of my statements.
