So I live in Turkey, a country in which I can't create a paypal account, and I want to sell hypixel skyblock coins. But it seems that the kids who play the game only have access to paypal as a payment method.

Is there any way for me to accept paypal? I know people don't like to accept paypal in exchange for btc because you can chargeback paypal but can't do that with btc. Do paypal to skrill middleman exist?

High performance, consistent uptime and fast support. Minecraft hosting that just works.

You could create an account/access it with a VPN, that is if you're fine with keeping money in your PayPal account and not withdrawing it to a bank. As for middlemen, I'm sure all kinds of them exist.

A vpn is not enough, I would also need to fake my data. I've read that doing so is dangerous and paypal can freeze your account and lock your funds.

Yes, and if that happens then there's no easy way out of it especially if you're in a country that PayPal doesn't support. Given the circumstances, I believe your best option would be to only accept payment via methods that you can actually accept, BTC, Skrill and whatever else it may be. It will decrease your sales but some safe sales are better than none/unsafe ones I guess.

BTC, as mentioned above, is probably your best bet. I've had Turkey buyers often offer Paysafe card and more often than not, I'm open to accepting steam gift cards for goods and services.
