6 ozt of silver, which if I were to sell it at post-silver crash price, would make it unacceptably expensive, so I don't.

Saying that you don't trust someone because of their behavior is completely valid.

I was thinking about this question, so I decided to search the forum to see if it had been asked in a topic within Bitcoin Discussion before.

I managed to find this topic, posted in February 2013: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=146018.0

Bitcoin was sitting around $25 then around that point and continuing to rise.

So what is the most expensive thing you have purchased using Bitcoin?

Let's not consider trade amounts, I'm thinking more like tangible items or services.



I purchased a 2nd hand iphone6 using btc.

I haven't really spent any big amounts just on small things. I'd prefer to keep most of my bitcoins as an investment at the moment. I'll spend them in the future though just not yet. Would be cool to buy a nice tv or hi-fi.

A new e-bike for about 10.68 BTC

What the heck is an e-bike?
An 'electric bike', like a bike where you still have to cycle / pedal yourself, but it accelerates. So you either have to put in less effort to get the same speed, or you go faster with the same effort you'd use on a normal bike.

It's not like a motorcycle or scooter where you don't have to do anything. If you don't do anything, the e-bike doesn't do anything either. You could also see it as a bicycle, still driven on human power, but with mechanical acceleration. It doesn't go extremely fast though, but it's still faster (and more convenient) than regular bikes.

Yes I've also seen it on discovery.

I think that it will be very useful in hiking and off road purposes. In daily life I'm damn happy with my retro bicycle.

I guess only direct buys count. Not when i took bitcoins, exchanged them to cash and bought something with that?

If so then the biggest buy i made was some notebook parts i needed. SSD-Disc and so on. I bought them through someone who ordered it for me so i bought in bitcoin. I believe the amount was something around $340.

I remember the days when it used to be common to see people boasting about spending their BTC on houses and Lamborghinis. Those people are quiet now, preferring to stay low key.

The most expensive stuff I purchased using Bitcoins are the radeon cards used to mine them.
