I see most people now a days used bitcoin as payment method as well as for trading purposes, I could see decade from now, Bitcoin will be used by bigger companies as a mode of payment due to its fast, efficient and convenient to use. It is also good as a form of an asset because the value had the characteristic to fluctuate up.
For me personally I used it for payment methods such as internet bills, electricity bills and many more stuffs. I agree that it is pretty convenient to use Bitcoin for payment methods, easy to use and hassle free.

That is is still very early to say anything about that, i think that still most of the people are using bitcoin for trading and investment purposes only, may be very few people have the opportunity to use bitcoin for shopping and other purposes in real life, but in future may be when bitcoin will become too much popular then it will become possible and we will become able to use bitcoin for so many purposes in real life.
The only barrier that keeps away Bitcoin from its potential as a payment method for the majority of the stores is its volatile nature, And when companies or store owners here about this they will think twice if they should accept it. There are some stores that accepted Bitcoin and some facilities that accept it especially at the time that the hype is burning intensely way back late 2017 and early 2018 when the value of Bitcoin is sky rocketing high and playing at $18,000 USD to $19,000 USD. But even Bitcoin has this kind of downsides about volatility issues it is still one of the best innovations that happened in the digital age world.
