Bitcoin on PayPal

    You can now buy bitcoin "EXPOSURE" on PayPal
   However you can’t send or receive, you can only buy or sell on PayPal it’s self. This is very easy way to get EXPOSURE to Bitcoin while not actually having your Bitcoin in the same way that you don’t actually have your money.
However POSSESSION is what Bitcoin is about and the old adage of NOT YOUR KEYS NOT YOUR BITCOIN springs to mind, but this could be an easy way for people that are hopeless with passwords to hold a small amount.
   Worrying signs here are the words “CRYPTO” & the other SHtCOINS.
  Beware! you loose 2% transaction fee buying & then loose 2% again selling and as you cant SEND the bitcoin to another address you are stuck in their ecosystem with there fees.
