Are you sure describing this as a scam? Well, I think we need to have a similar perception and description of what meant by
scam here.
I read this from PayPal
You currently are NOT able to send Crypto Assets to family or friends, use Crypto Assets to pay for goods or services, or withdraw Crypto Assets from your Cryptocurrencies Hub to an external cryptocurrency wallet. If you want to withdraw the value from your Cryptocurrencies Hub you will need to sell your Crypto Assets and withdraw the cash proceeds from their sale.
Taken from PayPal Cryptocurrency Terms and ConditionsIt is written "
currently"
Does it mean that someday it may change and will be changed? Expect they said:
You never, it means forever.
This is still at the beginning of PayPal concerning crypto. SO, let them work and also develop. I believe that PayPal will always make certain evaluations and review about how it works and develop.
So, just too early to say that Bitcoin in PayPal is a scam.
