I already spent most of my coins in several online stores. Sure i could spent more, but the diversity of webshops is not big enough.

The moment we see more shops coming into bitcoin, it will boost the bitcoin eco-system directly.
If you spent the bitcoins when the price was at the top ~475 USD then were lucky,
Personally i am not spending any bitcoins because i think it is still early as the price can be increased much more than it is now.

The price will always be increasing, as long as there is a community similar to the size of the one we currently have now. As mining becomes more and more expensive, it will become pretty prevalent that Bitcoin has to cost more and more in order to maintain a large group of miners.

Yeah it will reach to a new level in the coming months and it will keep on increasing as more and more people getting into it, and that is the best thing for the bitcoins community, I am also spending my bitcoins irrespective of the value but holding it and keeping it safe for the future is the best thing to do at a moment.

Yes, I love spending them. Especially since I can use them for food, change it in for cash, etc, I also use them for work a lot on backpage.

I do not believe that polling almost balanced, in some post I found them more likely to use them to make payments bitcoin, and they liked it, but if they see pooling earlier, it means that many of them also make bitcoin as an investment.

Most of them use it for online payment and few keep it as a long time investment with a great risk, by the way even I don't believe in any polls because most of the votes will be from people who don't use Bitcoin for anything rather than trading it for fiat

I was active enough to spend a bitcoin every week, to hang out with friends and shopping necessity.

Please share the source of the have of to many bitcoins in your hands (wallets). Can make even us others whales in bitcoin. Your post mean the spend of about 1800 us dollar in a month for things of second hands. It is not much the problem of the money because you can have to many but the spend of bitcoin. What is the why of this behavior? Everyone of us wait and hope big increase of its price and spend it in this way mean that you own to many and don't care to spend 4 of those every month. Or is simply to spend something different from the others...

You are right...
Most people are here just to murmur and increase their post count, maybe to get to higher rank or maybe to get paid a few cents for that comment, which is why it is not recommended to anyone to depend upon any numbers here, because most votes will come from the ones who have just heard and just copy and paste the comments from different users for the reasons mentioned in this post itself...

After you spend the bitcoin, do you buy it back?   I think the bitcoin price will rise in long term. So it is better to hold some.

I just do it online when t hey are some good deals. In real life I can't just go to store and pay with bitcoin.
The most of stores where I live they just use fiat money so is better to do bitcoin aside so that I can earn something with it.

I don't at the moment, if I do I mostly spend it online since that's the only option I have to spend my bitcoins
I would rather hold the few bitcoins that I own for now.

Actually I couple month ago I have spent actively, but for now I am just planning to hold my bitcoins I think this year I will make more profit to hold it. Of course I will just still trade, but I can see that bitcoin can increase even more this year I hope 1000 dollars, but 800 dollars that is also fine.

SOME. Some for hodling and SOME for spending on a btc debit card. A friend of mine thought it was an actual credit card. I laughed at him

and told him not a fucking Ice Cube's Chance In Hell. He said good and knew I would never get a credit card. I would spend some for coffees

out and milk and bread, or the like, but hold the rest. And no, not for gambling, tempting, but no.

Not quite true. You can go to Bit-X and buy a Visa Debit card and reload it for btc. You can then spend for real things in the corner store.

Yes, with bitcoin debit cards, anyone can spend bitcoins every where. But you must decide whether you are going to spend your bitcoins now itself or going to save for the future. Even, I have more options for spending bitcoins I do not prefer to spend bitcoins now itself.
