Bitcoin Forum

Great to be here. So when are we going to start spending these coins for products and services?

I think soon

you can do it already i guess...

When the value of btc reaches a stable state.

now ;)

It's really cool to be able to send "money" for things without having to open an account, register for this and that..

just an email and click and off we go.. of course due diligence is needed for reliable sources  :P

I just bought some "meds". I just hope more businesses like Walmart and Amazon start accepting it.

butterfly labs or asicminer?

Welcome to the forum man. Hope you get to start spending your coins soon  :D

Here is a very list of places to spend your bitcoins:

You forgot your standard trademark symbol  ;D

Hi, welcome here.

A stable long-term price for bitcoin is probably either sky high (compared with today) or zero, so hold on tight for a good while yet! :)

I've been looking, hoping to figure out the best way to buy "normal" goods (not random internet junk). Food, Fuel, Utilities. Seems there really isn't much option for this.

Maybe in the future Chevron, BP, Costco, will accept Bitcoins :)

Been spending my BTC for two years now :)

I was going to say that there's a lot of places you can use your btcs online, but i think the next big jump will be point of sale use for bitcoin. A scanner at the register would be amazing!

Hey, thanks to everyone for your warm welcomes.

I am very interested in the gift economy. I want to see more generosity. I think we should all give our Friends and family Bitcoins, even just satoshis. Everyone should have some Bitcoin. Does anyone know any good services for this. All I can find it pikapay.com.

we can pay some Hotels(2 or 3 Hotels) in Brazil with Bitcoins! hahah

hi chris
just joined
my coins are dropping had to get the scoop.
cant spend must go up i hope.

i got to this forum and read this post by
semaforu

newbie can post there but this my same feeling

quote below

I bought in to bitcoin at 114. I have bought some coin at 130. I will keep buying it at any price because I don't want anything to do with dollars. Everytime I use dollars is like a vote for the maintenance of the current financial system aka injustice and war.

   I bought two loaves of homebaked bread with bitcoin last week. I am going to keep spending bitcoin, even if a loaf of bread ends up costing me two grand at the price I paid for the coins. And it's because of people like me that bitcoin will succeed. I know they're out there, and a lot probably haven't even heard about bitcoin yet. But when they do, this is only going to grow.

    As for people selling coin to get bits managed by a bank- if you think the banking crisis is over, think again. Governments have used every stopgap measure in their toolset to cause the current upturn. They are out of options (although negative interest rates wouldn't be bad). If you think gold or real estate are safer, look up the word nationalization. If you think that can't happen in a democracy, look at history.

     The American revolution was fought and financed by less than 1% of the population. It was not all fun and victory after victory. It succeeded because a dedicated group of people were tired of being ripped of by rich people who they'd never met. Now it's time for another revolution.
    As for trading bitcoins for fiat, refer to the words spokem by the man on those hundred dollar bills you want to buy- paraphrasing- those who would give up liberty for temporary security deserve neither and will lose both.

    Peace

Investment advice.... 5% Bitcoin, 10 - 20% into Gold and Silver
