From what I could tell, they are allowing to fund your paypal account. So it seems that paypal would take the cryptocurrency, sell it on the market, charge a fee and fund your personal account with it. So, it may be a thing under the disguise of "look we are making progress into digital payments," while they really are trying to reap some fees.

isn't it bi-directional then? I can only sell crypto for fiat, but I'm not allowed to buy crypto with fiat?

LOL ‘looking at pictures is too hard’

Since I ignored him my experience of the forum is much improved.  He is so far the only one on my list.  He made it by never ever putting anything of value out and never missing an opportunity to snipe at XRP and it’s holders.

 

Some people apparently enjoy throwing brickbats.

 

To be honest I wish people wouldn’t quote him either,  then I’d never notice his vomitus.   :)

He has a point though, its kind of sad how ripple achieved zero adaption progress for xrp in the past 4 years. Getting added and suported by a big payment processor is a huge thing for any coin.

 

Wherein you both continue to miss the point:

Whether PayPal wants to list XRP or not - they're not allowed to
