I think because we can't physically "see" the BTC, it's easier to dismiss it, or not acknowledge it as "real money". However, it does obviously have value, and I think this perspective can be quite deleterious in terms of gambling... from my experience, it seems that people are more flippant with their BTC.
This is completely right. I agree peolple want to see something physically. They dont believe in what they dont see. That is why there is that one quote that says " To see is to believe" That quote should be erased from history. |

Lately I've been taking a look at Xapo recently launched market where you can buy games and other products at discounted prices. The interface looked very nice and easy to browse, there should be more big e-commerce sites with Bitcoin as the standard way of payment, mainly for digital goods and services.
Really? I havent check my xapo account for a while. Maybe I will take a peek tomorrow to see what is happening there. You mean like paid android apps and more? |

no, not really 'real money' for me..
maybe because of i can't use it directly in offline shop at my city now
(can't found 'bitcoin accepted here' in my city until now)
so it's still a digital currency to long term investment for me
to use it in real life as cash, i need to sell it to exchanger first
There are no Atm machines that is connected with your bitcoin wallet sites there. Oh my. Of you wouldnt mind Sir what country is that. I hope some will help to get your bitcoin usage be easier there. |

My experience todays ,when i started i used faucets and were amazed to earn 40ksatoshis weekly doing nothing besides captchas ,but i could earn more doing captchas for sure.Besides those faucets payments are very low for sure ,good enough to some owners and google adsense and similiar programs.
I agree with you. You could save transfer fees, basically by doing nothing. Its a good way of getting some extra cash. Maybe even bigger investment for future. Nice positive feedbacks for our good faucets. Real cash in an instant. That should be the motto or quote of faucets. Not like others where they pay weekly or monthly. If yoi want to gamble some you can use what youve earned from faucets. |

My biggest problem is all the scamming around it, and the whole illegal feeling around bitcoin.
That is a lesson you have learned now. It is thr people who do it who are the problem not the bitcoin itself. That people just want to earn real fast but not in a good way. Just like those people outside who just steals anything they want. Someday it will go back to them. |

I bought more stuff with dogecoin than with bitcoin to be honest. shirt, hoodie, cup, shot glasses, mousepad, and im sure im forgetting some. also gave some to support the dogecoin nascar car Josh Wise. Now that was awesome. Sprint cup motherfuckasssssssssssssssss
With bitcoin...lets see....I mostly cashed out to pay small electric bills for my small miners. hmm Oh i also buy cs:go keys on sites like dispenser.tf and sell them in steam, to buy games during sales. Other than that, I just spent my whole lifesavings of btc for an antminer s7...something has to heat the garage...(considering i sold my old mining stuff for fiat)
Wow you have used it for a lot of stuff. I envy you my friend. I havent used it for that I only use it for cash out and some prepaid sim card loads. Oh and I have also used it for tipping a good article from someone in forums site. |

Well I dont see nothing special in this. Like someone said above, there is plenty of free porn on the internet. Why would anyone pay to watch porn?
I think its perfect for paying with bitcoins to watch some beautifull girl doing things in front of a camera. I heard there is option on some porn sites for that but I never tested it. But yes payin something like that with bitcoin is good, no trace to your bank account and wife.
Wahhaha You got that right my friend. Ohhhh that one I have been thinking about that. The live show of a woman flirting you and making your tootoo grow. But imagine how many of you are watching. I bet she do it like a conference cam show. |

Seems like a lot of work. I just tried signing up to 1 Faucet but you're right, it's a good way to learn and spread the word.
Yup! a lot of work for starters but if you get the hang of it and you gain many referrals that will be an of use for you, you can get more btc than working your way without referrals. I dont do referrals but I still earn a lot through faucet. It is better for me than doing a lot of captchas in those captcha works here. You will get exhausted just thinking how many captchas you should make to get the minimum payment. In faucet there is no minimum. you are paid directly. Plus you have the chance to get that lucky big satoshi prize |

I don't think there is a bank that holds bitcoins. There's not need for this either.
I like bitcoin the way it is. It's your responsibility to secure them, I like this better than trusting a bank.
You never know where your money is actually going with a bank.
With banks there may be added security in addition to possible interest. Its a trade off i guess I believe that I can make more profits by holding bitcoins for 1 year than placing my bitcoins in a bank. Plus if it works like a regular bank, I would have to pay a fee to even have an account. To those of us who have bitcoins in our wallet before inflation we will feel it real quick how our money is growing. We dont need a bank with interest we can see interest now. In just a few weeks it is more than what the banks can give. |

complexity and laziness. it is enough...
just ask your mother or your friend's girlfriend, if she knows what is p2p, private key or QR code...and if she even care. people don't what to learn anything extra over something, what works just fine for them like paypal, modern banks and their applications or wireless payments.
I agree with you entirely. People. It is unexplainable but true. They dont want anything to do with what will make life more complex. They want it easy. They dont want to be burdened by more or learn more. Just stay with what they know and thats it. |

It's real money but I think it's "weird" to think about that you can download a wallet (or make one online) find a faucet and thats it. Now you have 'real money'.
That is why bitcoin is so unique. There is no bank. You can have your own bank or wallet in your pc. That is why the government is really trying hard to stop us. We are not connected with them. There is no income for them. |

For now I'm just doing faucets, I'm probably going to join a signature campaign to help grow my bitcoins. Faucets is slow, but yeah you gotta start somewhere, and every little bit helps me along the way.
I've gambled before but it's not the greatest idea to gamble with something you're trying to build up, there are a bunch of risk factors connected to it.
Faucets re really useless, I don't understand why you guys use them at all? Pointless waste of time. For you faucets may be a waste of time, and to a certain point, you are right. Only look at the amount of traffic these faucet sites get. A lot! These people don't consider it a waste of time. Well I'm not sure how many other people consider faucets a waste of time, aren't the "people" who are using these faucets typically bots or people who are extremely new when it comes to Bitcoin? I used to use faucets something like 2 years ago, and once I saw it took 3 months to earn the same amount of pennies, I ended up looking for alternative methods, and eventually stumbled across this board. Then I discovered signature campaigns. I guess that some people would still use faucets kind of like how I used them, but I can't fathom how they would still have such high traffic. That is why faucets owners are getting broked because of this bot. They also want profit the same as the one who gets free satoshis using their faucet. It is not that large profit for them too. That is why they cant pay that much for faucets and also because of those bots that is why they dont pay a large quantity. They need some time also for their sites to be viewed. |

Lol, why would anyone pay for porn these days when it can be so easily pirated?
it was said, because they are rich, because they want to help their own entertainment, because it is the same for those that want to help their game when they pay for it pay for quality or special interest that's not available. Entertainment reasons as well. Same reasons pay for a blueray disc of a movie  Yes or an HD one. Imagine seeing those lovely bumpers of a woman without any pixelized part. Just how perfect it is. And that is why they will for that kind of entertainment. Seeing the perfection of art through those skins and how it was captured perfectly. |

I think what shouldve been Why should people use bitcoin now?...
Yes now!!! Families are getting broke because of the transfer rate of dollars. Just think about a Mom sending money monthly for a year to her family at a different part of the globe. How much will it be for 12 months. In bitcoin all that rates will be minimized and it is like you have 13 times in a year compared to those other transfer money companies.

IS there any Bitcoin Bank that really works like bank that provide interest for customer that available in this world?
If you like you can put your coins to the exchange sites, some what deposit if there, you're already a Hero you should know. Unless of course this account was sold and you bought it. Despite My rank I am just a normal human being which is impossible to know everything going on in this world but that is the purpose of this forum, so we all can gain more knowledge about Bitcoin with all due respect, I think it is wise to review your words before you post it, your sentence about I bought this account I found it provocative offending and insulting i feel like my reputation become bad due to your false accusation and for your answer about exchanger : exchanger doesnt provide any interest Owned! We are all here to gain some knowledge. That is what the forum is for right? To share and review some things regarding bitcoin. Thanks for the good question though. But I also am reading some replies and I see there are some but we still dont know if it is just a scam or whatever. |

Great question. But I dont really know too if I am still alive on that day.
If I will still be living and it is in a great price. I will teach my grandchilds how it works. Tell them this is my money I have been saving. And let them take care of it. Continue or withdraw it. They can choose what they want to do with it.

There shouldve been an IF with that question.
That is a big percentage for a bank though. 10 percent is huge. Hmmm I would say no for now.
The price is not stable. You can profit that 10 percent through exchange. Maybe a littlr risky but still a profit. Plus you dont know what could happen. What if it falls and you want your bitcoin where the price that you started putting it in the bank.

I shouldve got 0.03 btc now but I always use it for expenses and other stuffs. It is not a lost though. Using it for emergency rations help me survive my daily life. If I will get a space for more budget I will start holding those btc from now on

Maybe because their money are invested in bitcoin. I use bitcoin if I lose cash. That could be the prime reason if someone wants to use his or her bitcoin. Just like a credit card. Lost of cash then his second choice is bitcoin.
