So I was wondering.. how many of you spend your money (or BTC) on buying real stuff here or ordering/investing in wallets or gamble or other services?

I read most of the topics here and many of them involves DONT TRUST in wallets they are scam and barely ive heard that someone got tricked by buying physical goods here ( most of them are bitcoins irl) ... so on which side are you the most?

I've actually never bought a physical stuff with bitcoins. But I'm buying almost all of my IT related stuff (hosting, domains, etc) with bitcoins.

And it's not about trust. It's about online money/bitcoin flow.

I buy a ton of digital goods and services like domains, hosting, gift cards, etc.  I've also purchased a lot of physical goods from members here (mainly).  Most of them were coins and crypto related stuff...
But I've purchased more digital goods than physical.

I have also bought more online/digital goods stuff than physical goods. Plane tickets, domains, Vpn services are only some of my digital goods bought. I have also bough one physical thing with Bitcoin, that's my Trezor hardware wallet. Proud about it.

I think it's normal that people buy more digital goods than physical stuff. Physical things need to be shipped and Bitcoin marketplace isn't still well developed to find the best price together with shipping to a certain place where customer lives.

Where I am there really aren't very many places taking Bitcoin. I've probably bought more physical stuff from the one big operation that accepts it than digital stuff from elsewhere. I'd make a lot more use of it if it was possible.

There are not enough places to get food or real goods around at all.
That's why I prefer to use bitcoin to buy online services. That's it.

Well think about this: I buy a bitcoin debit card, load some btc into it and then buy some physical goods, will it still be "classified" as buying with bitcoin or not? If its yes, I buy physical goods a lot ,but the amount I spend on digital goods still outnumbers the physical one.

I sporadically buy physical things with Bitcoin, and most of the Bitcoin I spend is definitely for physical goods. I don't invest or use any form of online wallet and I rarely gamble Cheesy And when I do it's with pocket change.

The same old question... I guess the answer is you're using fiat after all.

In that case I guess most of the answers here are about fiat as well, if they are not buying from a forum member but from a site. In that case BTC would first be converted to fiat and then be used to pay the site, which is similar to my situation. Anyway not looking forward to this discussion as this is something off-topic.

Mainly I spend my earned bitcoins in buying domains and hosting plans and at the same time use it for some personal projects and in terms of buying real physical stuff, I still do it with bitcoin but in person and I rather not do so in terms of over the forums but there are a lot of people in which do buy physical stuff here with their bitcoins and they seem happy ( it's just matter of knowing who you have to deal with )

Personally I used to cash out first my BTC then will use cash to buy physical stuffs on malls. But I will try buying real stuffs directly with bitcoin just for a change sooner Cheesy Sometimes I also do spend it with buying mobile airtime and some digital stuffs like online accounts. I rarely gamble, just gambling when quite bored Grin

There are a lot trusted online shop which accept bitcoin now. In my country, there are quite a lot official bitcoin online shop. And we also can buy real stuff (physical stuff) by buying or selling on buy&sell forum.

(Middleman) surely from their site service.
Buyer send their BTC first to the site, and after "site" accept the money
seller got 3 days limit time to send their stuff.
If buyer not get the physical stuff right on time or more than 3 days, he can get his BTC back.
