I am actively using bitcoins online, I trade with multiple people and make agreements/arrangements as well, I see it as a convenient way to conduct online transactions particularly those user to user ones, Might try it offline too if some place accepts it near to my area.

The only time I use bitcoin if I have enough of it is probably for 1 month of groceries for the next following month.

And usually I just buy it with using the gyft app for walmart to buy most of my stuff.

I am spending it on gambling and for online transfers as I don't see any other place to spend at a moment, If the bitcoin price is higher then I convert it to fiat without any hesitation.

Well i were collecting the much i could these last months ,besides lend bitcoin to others i had purchased a faucet and im inloved from it,the income i may get montly can be the best investment i had made ,soo  yes i believe you should collect and invest somewhere the coins.
you only invest in and hold it. I do not see the activity of shopping in your own post? do not you ever do that?
I think all users have to do it includes help bitcoin
If i lend im supporting bitcoin as my own,if i were investing all i earn i would be able to invest into faucet system,im with a bigger project that i wanna to be able to realize this year,soo i need to keep collecting and running my faucet now and with all the income is planed to be another project related to bitcoin.Soo im sharing health with the faucet,and i wanna just one more project,that i have already a base to advance but not enought funds.

the short answer for me would be no. i keep almost 90% of my bitcoins in a cold storage account that i havent really checked on in almost a year. the rest 10% i keep on coinbase which i try to spend frequently. but i rarely spend btc in real life in person, its most digital.

Yes, But not all of it, just some of it. I usually use it to top up my phone And to buy something online if i can't find it at the local shop. 
For the rest i store it for price increase in the future.

I try to spend my bitcoins as often as I can. We dont have many local places around who take btc for a payment option but I do shop online with my btc about once or twice a month.

No it is not because I don't want to spend them but more that i can't spend them. There are almost no stores that except Bitcoins.
But this is also good and it helps me save my Bitcoins instead of spending them.

Im Spend my bitcoin like normal currency, if i need something and my relation accept bitcoin, I will use bitcoin as my man currency . at this time very difficult to find people accept bitcoin.
Withdrawing it would be the best option you could get. Use fiat as your currency to pay. We are in different countries and that is why we just have limited options on how to use it.

Thats really the way on how to use bitcoin in the real world,you just need to convert it on a local currency,someday we might see that it can buy something without going to your browser but that is still far ahead.

Yes, I also spend them actively and I have the same problem, there are no local stores in my area, due to the fact do not know what the bitcoin is here.
The most people do not even heard about it and some heard about it but think its only used by criminals, right now I'm only spending them actively on digital goods.

Yes Im actively spending my bitcoin but only those I earned from doing other bitcoin jobs not related to trading. All of my trading funds are just meant for trading. If I will use my trading funds I will just throwing away some supposedly earnings when the price fluctutates.

If ever I have lots of earnings for bitcoin I would definitely spend my bitcoins but this is for basic needs that I am actually looking forward to it. I am having some difficulties at home for food supply so I would definitely use them for basic needs..

That would be the best to use it for basic needs, but looking at present scenario I think it will take a very long time that we can use it for buying day to day stuffs.
if bitcoin could be more known by the public then certainly mass will adopt bitcoin. you're more likely to spend bitcoin You can buy food with bitcoin Cheesy
but bitcoin is digital it was still very compassionate to areas that are not familiar with the Internet or a rural area.
even in the city is not necessarily a lot of people know about bitcoin

Yeah but for now that is all  you got. Or maybe you can buy and sell from purse.io. But that would get you to the harder part where you need get buyers of what they want and only those things that are sold in that shop. You can make a list to make it easier.

the real answer is NO... bitcoins cannot be used in real life.. means it cannot be accepted in local stores,any restaurants etc... but if i use bitcoins i will actively spend it in purchasing some digital goods from online websites..

It is good to not spend your coins now around this time, there is no reason to do that and if you are looking at the value you can see that the value is not even high to spend it.
So it will be better for all of us if we can spend it later if the value is much higher so you can spend a lot more and that is good for the most people.

But the bad thing is that you have sometimes to wait a very long time until the value will be high.

I do not spend them actively, I only spend them sometimes when I really need something that is only payable by bitcoin.
I do not want to spend my bitcoins I want to hold as much as possible these days because of the halving that is coming this year.
