I am curious as to why and who would use bitcoin if it was accepted everywhere.

 I know it would be great for everyone who has invested into bitcoin, but if it was just as accepted as money would you still be as inclined to use it?

 If you have a business that involves bitcoin or you have some sort of exchange then I can see it being a great thing for demand, but why would you use it if you could just as easily use fiat money?

I'd love that, to be able to go to a supermarket and spend my coins would be amazing, same for paying bills and so on, it's really gratifying to be able to spend money knowing it's not going to be devalued like crazy any time soon.

Yes. My wife and I are going to Vegas next week. I am going to move a coin to my Mycellium phone app in hopes of being able to spend it, I'm sure there will be somewhere that will accept it.  Smiley

I will buy everything I need with bitcoin, like using fiat. It is an easy question. I think the better question is, how we use bitcoin in a country where bitcoin don't be accepted there.
But if it was accepted in everywhere, bitcoin has a problem with its volatility, which price of the stuff will change everyday and make us confused about it.

Cash is used everywhere and we're using it right?

So answer is yes, I would use it.

Yes sure I would use it, that would be awesome and exactly what I have been waiting on for so long, I'm sure the day will come. Cut up the cards and get paid and spend bitcoin, getting out from the bankers trap is what it is all about for me.

If BTC was accepted everywhere we'd all be rich & it'd make no sense whatsoever to ever use fiat again.
If BTC was accepted everywhere the price would most likely go to the moon due to there being a limited supply of coins & we'd be able to live a very nice life without using fiat again (providing you have a nice BTC stash).

The ultimate dream is for BTC to be accepted everywhere.
To answer the question in the OP's header if BTC was used everywhere (providing the price reflected that it could be used everywhere) I'd buy property/real estate.

No doubt. I will use it for sure. If this really happened in future, btc prices may goes higher and higher . I am also trying to introduce the bitcoin to my home town so that more and more peoples can take interest in it and use them for their online business and real business too.

Many of us would have something like 90% net work in bitcoin if everyone accepted it other night.  You would have to use it to live your new richer lifestyle.  You cant spend anything when you are gone remember.

BTC will be accepted anywhere soon. It will be picked up by a major ewallet like Skrill for online transactions and they'll run with it.

Fiverr.com prospered greatly since it added BTC to its payment solutions.

the 'why' use it is because I'm sick and tired of central bankers getting rich off everyone else and inflating our money.

Right now the majority of people are not involved in BTC, so if it will be accepted everywhere we can have an advantage (no use exchange to buy/sell) and a disadvantage (a high number of people will know about BTC and they will start to trade with it, so faucets, sig. etc could be lost or pay a lower price). For me is better that the BTC spread start after 2020.

Some very interesting answers. I think as we come in to this crazy tech age as everything is becoming more focused on tech that it will find it's place in the future and I don't think everyone will use it, but I can see it becoming a popular thing in the future if nothing else comes along.

If this happen, nothing more easily than carrying bitcoin on virtual wallet ( so we can't get robbed ) and purchase anything with one simple device with fast transaction. Just need I think it need more than to happen but it's still not possible as long as we have faith on bitcoin...

If i could earn bitcoin i would spend it but i wouldnt buy bitcoin with the fees or markup involved in doing so just to use it because it would be cheaper to just use fiat. Presumably there is still an option to pay in fiat at the same price. I might do it once or twice for novelty value but ultimately i am going to choose the cheaper option.

this will begin happen by employers paying in bitcoin to all their workers and people will begin using it in the supermarket to the shopping mall.
but in general i would use it for everything no need to carry cash anymore, we would be able to pay anyone any amount just with our wallet on our phone or a plastic bitcoin card.
