Could you elaborate on the possibility of a PayPal user owning a cryptocurrency? Is there a direct integration between PayPal's services and the acquisition of digital currencies? Are there any limitations or restrictions PayPal places on its users when it comes to cryptocurrency ownership? Additionally, what are the potential risks and considerations one should take into account if they choose to pursue ownership of a cryptocurrency through PayPal or any other platform? Clarifying these points would greatly assist in understanding the feasibility of a PayPal user owning a cryptocurrency.
