While Bitcoin or any other cryptocurrencies do not pose a threat to PayPal or credit cards. But it can not last always. Analyst of research firm MoffettNathanson Lisa Ellis believes that in theory can bypass traditional payment methods by popularity.
The Cryptocurrency system — for example, Bitcoin, and potentially undermined the value of private payment systems.
According to Ellis, the key features of cryptocurrency to ensure “freedom of money”, strongly contrasted with the characteristics of most traditional private payment systems.
theVisa and PayPal should start working with cryptocurrencies
Due to the competitive potential of cryptocurrency, PayPal and Visa would have to look at the integration of these digital assets. However, the analyst doubts that this will happen in the foreseeable future. When you do this, otherwise, according to Ellis, the payment giants are in danger of losing market share in favor of ripple or Veem already using crypto-currencies for cross-border payments.

In 2018 Shulman was very worried by the strong volatility of cryptocurrency. That is because of the spike in prices, it was decided not to integrate PPC to a mobile PayPal app Venmo. He is confident, for this reason, many retailers will not accept payment in cryptocurrency.

Hello guys just to let you know, your credit determines how much trust you are worth, it helps to separate the good customers from the bad ones, and it also helps identify high risk customers. In my early 30s I was quite careless, I barely paid back early, I often used 90% of my available credit; these things take years to go away. This ruined my credit. It was damn low. A friend Payne informed me about what XAPCREDITSOLUTION@GMAIL.COM did for her, words cannot express how I feel right now; the team of XAP literally deleted negative items especially the eviction and collections that messed my credit up and increased my score to 805. I am truly grateful. You can call or text:+1 972-597-9704. Thanks team XAP!
