paypal files for bitcoin payment patent

All I think about with paypal is fees, fees, and more fees. I wish they would stay out of the crypto currency space.

yeah but it will also probably result in a lot more btc circulating, i expect btc prices would rise considerably from that.


meaning of course they immediately implode.

If you treat a BTC like a currency, of course it would go down. Currencies don't appreciate.

What??? If you replace "BTC" with "JPY", which is a currency, the italicized statement is not generally true, as evidenced by this chart of the USD price of Japanese yen over the past year.
