PayPal could forever change the way we use bitcoin
Wow...how big of a game changer would that be? I imagine Broke and Vols would change their stance on bitcoin. Russian would remain a moron though.

Can bitcoin enthusiasts put down the anti-Paypal pitchforks? PayPal has dominated the bitcoin news headlines over the last week with striking discussions from both PayPal and Ebay senior executives – they are openly discussing bitcoin, and in a positive light. However, no one has addressed why these headlines are important. PayPal most likely sees a business case in solving at least one of the four significant barriers to bitcoin seeing wider adoption: easy to use wallets, escrow for large transactions, quick acceptance by merchants, and reliable exchanges. PayPal can use its brand and infrastructure as a significant competitive advantage for solving the first two almost immediately, and could eventually be a game changer for the later two.

Think about this. How does Paypal get paid? Fees. What's the benefit of bitcoin (so you say)? No fees. This doesn't add up with their business model. At all.

Don't know why you would be so excited about that considering all transactions and accounts in PayPal have history.
