Good news, it's mean your family have wallet address too right? I think family are the hardest people to understand what bitcoin is, especially our parents.

That's totally right, I never even explain what is Bitcoin to my family. Because, I thought they will just understand it once and that just throw it away for their mind Sad

Right now, I'm earning some BTC regularly through my signature campaign on this forum.
These bitcoin I keep in my wallet with the hope that they will increase in the value eventually and that I will have good profit from it.
Some BTC I cashed out and invested in my other online businesses.
In my country we don't have many merchants who accept bitcoin, just a few of them, so this is not choice for me right now.
Hopefully this will change in the future and I will be able to use my BTC funds in more ways.

I wish I could say I use it for money transfer ... but no one I know actually uses it. Undecided

I use it mainly as a vehicle for speculation. I day trade, I have cold storage tucked away for the long term. I do a lot of online shopping at places like Amazon. Other than that, not too much.

digital download and money transfering are my uses, i need to transfer money abroad, and bitcoin is perfect for that no hassles no problems of any sort, payments are fast and i don't have to deal with bank and their stupid policy, but it would be good if it could be used for real shopping not only online, like small supermarket, it is all that i ask

Like most people, I started using bitcoin for gambling Smiley
But now that I have learned ways that bitcoin could be used to earn money, it becomes my sideline. I too, invest some money in bitcoin exchange. Luckily I earned alot. It is also useful and a great help when I need load during night where stores here were closed. In just few clicks, I could have cellphone load without no worries. It offers hassle free services.

i think many people invested in bitcoin after the big news about Greeks buying bitcoin was released. a lot of the volume that went into bitcoin was not from greece and it was others who were in the hype.
i bought some before at lower price and going to keep for now

Weak hands have been complaining about missing out ever since bitcoin was $1 and never buy the dip.
Whales are those who keep buying the dip.

Don't worry, you will reap your profits sooner as you sewed in at the right time, and it's high time now.

And now coming back to my usage of Bitcoins, I always use them to buy food and clothes, basically I would say shopping with BTC.

Well since we are living in other country, how can the shop deliveries our food order after we payed it? I think the food order just be accepted in nearby area, not abroad.

As we've seen with the SPV bug Bitcoin is not ready yet for mass adoption. Once it is and there are merchants everywhere I will start buying stuff with BTC on the daily as i'll be safe carrying it in a non local-blockchain based wallet like the ones on Smartphones.
