Are you sure PayPal supports BTC and other crypto? Because I can't find a crypto option or wallet on my PayPal account, it only supports local currency.
Or is PayPal BTC not supported in my country yet?
If you are not base on US, then you won't see this option for now.
I've created a similar thread,
PayPal launches "Pay with Crypto".
If the option is only for residents in the US then that doesn't make any sense. I am actually not a fan of PayPal maybe because it doesn't work in my location. If you value anonymity I don't think you should be paying for anything on PayPal using your Crypto-currency.
While setting up PayPal you are already giving out so details. But I will be looking at this thread if there is actually a decentralised way to buy things online using Bitcoin.
I honestly don't want to use decentralised way to make payment online, I just want to pay in Bitcoin instead of having dollar in the paypal account, I don't care about KYC because it changes nothing for me.
To swap bitcoin back to fiat in my country I have to use centralised exchanges and they all compulsory KYC verification, it doesn't matter to me, but the only problem I can have with PayPal is not supporting other countries except U. S citizens, it sucks.
Can we really escape from centralised platforms? One way or the other we are stuck somehow, even P2P is no longer looking like it anymore, there are few ones that still works but real peer to peer is fading right in front of our eyes.
