Is a Beta release secure enough for e-commerce ?

I know beta versions are generally not recommended as everyday browsers,but now that current Firefox betas are conceptually more like release candidates,are they stable and secure enough to be used for e-commerce (ebay and the likes) just like a normal release version? If nothing,they should receive security fixes before the release,whilst critical bugs should have already been dealt with in earlier stages,is that understanding correct?

edit:yes this was posted with a nightly but the question was really aimed at current beta releases.

Firefox 8.0 beta becomes a release version today 11/08 at 8am PST. Security is no issue with any version, as all supported versions are going to get an update today.
