"buying" it on paypal means you're essentially holding a promise of the value of bitcoin. You don't actually hold any bitcoin. You'll still get the value of it if you sell at a profit. Just saying, you're not actually holding BTC. It's more like placing a bet while PayPal holds the currency.
oh shit I had no idea that’s how the PayPal one works.
