Post by: biskitop on January 27, 2019, 01:07:52 AM it's like the story of someone who bought pizza using bitcoin when the exchange rate was still low, so don't be surprised if a few years later the price of bitcoin will be even higher.

The fact that you are willing to buy a car using bitcoin as payment system or as a form of money is already a positive thing to do. But if you treat your bitcoin as form of investment then that dilemma sets in. But if I'm given the choice, specially if I really needed a car, then I will used my bitcoin and not regret even if the price goes to the moon. There are also cases when let's say you buy bitcoin at a cheap price and then the price skyrocket, making you tons of money, then you buy a car, it's already a win-win situation for you.

Post by: awik p on January 27, 2019, 03:51:10 AM with high volatility, it makes a separate consideration from the seller or buyer to use bitcoin as a transaction tool. I guess basically you won't know where the price will be, by buying at that time it's certainly legal. if you think of it like a pizza seller, at that time BTTC was not worth it, and now it's soaring, of course it's fortunate to be on the seller's side

Post by: Capt00 on January 27, 2019, 04:33:24 AM If you are willing to buy a car just buy for it using Bitcoin, it's your choice whether you held or just own a car by your Bitcoin right. If there is another option as a payment, use your fiat instead Bitcoin there's no problem there if you know how Bitcoin volatility is. Bitcoin is very profitable in holding long term and patiently wait at the right time but if are hurry in buying a car in your Bitcoin why not.

Title: Re: Spending bitcoins on a car. Car depreciate while Bitcoin appreciates. Post by: munareal on January 27, 2019, 06:47:44 AM Bitcoin is created as a means of payment but the demand for it has made it into a store of value. Using your bitcoin to buy a car that will depreciate is satisfying the demand for it. It is just like changing the bitcoins into fiat currency to buy the car.
Title: Re: Spending bitcoins on a car. Car depreciate while Bitcoin appreciates. Post by: joniboini on January 27, 2019, 07:21:30 AM There is no way to judge the decision based only on "bitcoin will rise, car value will decrease". In real life, it's much more complex than that. Some people already mentioned time preference, sometimes people choose to look for short-term happiness instead of long-term or vice versa. It's quite difficult to maintain the balance of this time preference, but in general, the more wealth you are, you'll be able to choose to invest in long-term (hold your Bitcoin) instead of short-term gains (buying a car).
Anyway, even if you buy a car, you can still use it as a tool to get money such as renting your car. While this might not give you crazy return (add that with this depreciation of the value of a car), at least you can sustain your life without risking too much, like when you hold Bitcoin and wait for the bull run. Title: Re: Spending bitcoins on a car. Car depreciate while Bitcoin appreciates. Post by: canadian33 on January 27, 2019, 08:29:52 AM You need to understand that the price of Bitcoin is not stable. Therefore, you should not be surprised if in 1-2 years it turns out that the price of Bitcoin is 5-10 times higher than it was.
It is necessary to evaluate risks everywhere. This can save a lot of money. Title: Re: Spending bitcoins on a car. Car depreciate while Bitcoin appreciates. Post by: talkbitcoin on January 27, 2019, 10:21:41 AM if you start thinking like that in your life then you will die of starvation! because anything that you buy may depreciate over time while if you held on to your "money" you could have still have your money and save your value. for example if you don't eat lunch today you can save up the money that you normally spend on launch every day and keep the money instead and become richer!

Title: Re: Spending bitcoins on a car. Car depreciate while Bitcoin appreciates. Post by: Google+ on January 27, 2019, 10:57:53 AM spend bitcoin that you have only for cars it seems that is a step that is not good because by buying a car then you will take care of the car tax every year and surely you will make you become out of money you have, you better still make bitcoin and multiply bitcoin you do trading.
Title: Re: Spending bitcoins on a car. Car depreciate while Bitcoin appreciates. Post by: NeuroticFish on January 27, 2019, 12:41:56 PM Just use fiat money for such purchases.It's not a big deal. * Some do get income as Bitcoin and want to cash out. * Some may need badly a new car (the old one is broken beyond repair). These are 2 possible use cases for buying a car now for Bitcoin. When Bitcoin price is high, it's a good way to cash out the investment gains. There are plenty of use cases for buying a car for Bitcoin. Bitcoin has to become a mean of payment. That's what it was designed for. If everybody will just HODL, we can tell that we misunderstood Bitcoin. So no, don't "just use fiat money for such purchases". Better: "Do as you think it's better for you, but keep in mind that Bitcoin is very under priced now (imho!) and maybe the car can wait until Bitcoin price goes up." Title: Re: Spending bitcoins on a car. Car depreciate while Bitcoin appreciates. Post by: Oilacris on January 27, 2019, 05:42:15 PM Having a car is an asset but it will depreciate in the future while bitcoin is an investment asset which will appreciate in the future. Instead of buying things that you don't need right now, why not invest it on bitcoin so that after 3-5 years your investment will give you an enough money to buy a new car. Don't just buy things that you don't want right now because it will going depreciate in value in the future.

Post by: Oceat on January 27, 2019, 06:23:16 PM Investing in cryptocurrency is way more profitable than spending it on any luxurious items that don't increase price in the future. Teenagers usually tend to buy luxurious things than thinking about their future. I think it is because of the fame that they wanted so much but they never know that fame comes with a price.

Well, if you buy a car you don't (usually) buy it for an investment, but as a good to use because you need it. And using bitcoin to buy the stuff you need is always a good thing, because it is the first step for mass adoption! Title: Re: Spending bitcoins on a car. Car depreciate while Bitcoin appreciates. Post by: bitgolden on January 27, 2019, 07:18:00 PM Depends on what you use the car for. If you are going to use that car for something that will either save you money or save you time or even help you earn money than there is no point of keeping it in bitcoin.
Assume a person buys a brand new car with all the important stuff and uses it to UBER people around in USA somewhere expensive like New York or something, that person used the bitcoin to buy a business to himself, not a huge business but he both has a car that pays itself and pays the owner income and also costs nothing because fuel is basically paid by the customers. Hence there is really no reason not to buy that car with bitcoin since it would be a wise decision. Nonetheless, if you are going to buy a car and park it and not use it than yeah its a bad investment. Title: Re: Spending bitcoins on a car. Car depreciate while Bitcoin appreciates. Post by: jademaxsuy on January 27, 2019, 08:06:14 PM You don't have to buy car if you don't want to lose money due to bitcoin is volatile. If you really need a car then why not buy car. The car may be depreciate as time goes by but it's not an investment where you buy a car and you earn money.
Title: Re: Spending bitcoins on a car. Car depreciate while Bitcoin appreciates. Post by: coolcoinz on January 27, 2019, 08:13:39 PM There's a difference between buying your daily commuter and buying a 100k USD swag car. Sure, all cars lose value over time, but this loss is the greatest when you buy a new one. A 5 year old city car, like a VW golf, won't cost you a lot and won't lose a lot each year, but will get you from one place to another pretty fast and pretty cheap.
It all depends on your preferences and such. I wouldn't spend my coins on a car because I don't need it. I have an old one that still works and I don't need the swag.

Buying new cars is only for people who have enough money to not care about how much a vehicle depreciates once it rolls off the lot, and I'm not--and never have been--one of those fortunate folks. That's why you have to buy a really cheap "second hand" car.Buying a brand new and expensive car with bitcoin is madness. ;D Exactly. Some people really love cars, and I can understand that but it's definitely not my thing. I suppose if I absolutely had to buy a car and only had bitcoin, I'd do it. Otherwise, as I've always said I view bitcoin more as an investment than a currency. I would hate to be that guy who bought the pizza for 10,000BTC looking back at the purchase 10 years later. Ugh.Just use fiat money for such purchases. Title: Re: Spending bitcoins on a car. Car depreciate while Bitcoin appreciates. Post by: Alexlax on January 27, 2019, 08:54:36 PM To be honest, so you can compare to infinity, it does not make sense. If you consider Bitcoin as an investment, then yes, there is no need to buy a "car". If it is just like a currency for payment, then this is good.

Title: Re: Spending bitcoins on a car. Car depreciate while Bitcoin appreciates. Post by: Huskarls on January 27, 2019, 11:14:05 PM but the problem is, in bitcoin we don't know how much the price has dropped to what percentage and in how fast it is because we know the crypto decline is very fast if we compare it between 1 year ago and right now. However its only luck if we can see price increases in time we expect.

Right now could be bad timing for that because crypto market is nearing bottom, but consolidation period and bear market could be longer then you can be without that car.

Cars depreciate in value while bitcoins go up or down. With a car there is no doubt about it and you might be losing within 3 years as you have said but bitcoin can give you the chances, you can probably earn a lot or may lose more than what you could be losing with a car investment. But if you really had the best inputs about bitcoin status, you might just earn with greater possibilities than a car 3 years after. There is a lot to learn about trading bitcoin that could give us the opportunity to get rich and this is what most people should know.

I'll definitely use my bitcoins on held to buy a car soon as long as the market goes on high again. I'll use it for convenient transportation and convenience has its price remember that and at the same time, I'll use it for business. Title: Re: Spending bitcoins on a car.

When it comes to bitcoin it isn't that assured. The value might move forward or else it'll go downwards. User need to be prepared enough take risk. When we make a comparison with car I remember an news. When the price was at the peak one bought a house with bitcoin finding the right person. When the agreement of buying was made tbge price was low and when it grew the settlement took place. This gave a big profit to the buyer and with the excess he bought a car. In this way investing on bitcoin might lead to buy big or nothing in no time.

As for the pizza guy, he already stated the he doesn't regret buying pizza with 10,000 BTC. Quote Cointelegraph: You probably get asked this question a lot, but I have to ask. Since 10,000 Bitcoin is worth around 80 million dollars today, do you ever regret paying 10,000 BTC for two pizzas? LH: You know, I don't regret it. I think that it's great that I got to be part of the early history of Bitcoin in that way, and people know about the pizza and it's an interesting story because everybody can kind of relate to that and be [like] - "Oh my God, you spent all of that money!" I was also kind of giving people tech support on the forums and I ported Bitcoin to MacOS, and you know, some other things - fix bugs and whatnot, and I've always kind of just wanted people to use Bitcoin and buying the pizza was one way to do that. I didn't think it would get as popular as it has, but it's gotten to be a really catchy story for people. https://cointelegraph.com/news/bitcoin-pizza-guy-laszlo-hanyecz-on-why-bitcoin-is-still-the-only-flavor-of-crypto-for-him Title: Re: Spending bitcoins on a car.

That's how you wind up a millionaire living in a shack underneath a motorway wearing discarded sacks.
If you can afford the car and it benefits your life then you should buy it. We're all going to be dead for an extremely long time. I intend to expire with as little money left as possible.
