I dont want to spent my bitcoins because there are allot of people who do and i dont feel that i need to do it. If others spent them i dont need to just waiting for a increasing moment and dont know if im going to sell them on that point maybe in about 20 years.
it was nice to not spend your bitcoin for something that is not important. but I prefer to spend it in a way to exchange it for fiat and save money in the bank. when the high price I would take the opportunity to sell, but if the price is low I will continue to hold for the next few years

I will use it when the price is high. That is the same as selling it but not sell directly. So it will help the usage.

Yeah I think holding it will be good to hold our coins for some time at least till the halving  and its better not to spend our coins till we see the higher price.

yes I usually do not like to hold too long. but because I hold halving long enough before halving.
when the price touched $500 or more I would probably sell it, because it's my goal to buy and hold for halving.

Spending your Bitcoin will be now not the best thing that you can do and that is because the value is not that high worth so it will be better if you are waiting a longer time.
But it will be still hard to know what will happen with Bitcoin itself and that is the problem.

Gambling is your hobby, it is not that bad as long as your enjoying it and not stepping on someone else. I do trading, it is also like gambling but in a safer way. Not to risky to lose all in just a second. I hope you try it sometime. It is also fun.

You have the point, bitcoin spending today is not a very good thing to do. It is good to save more bitcoins today as the halving is on its way.
And if you already earned from the halving then it is a good time now to spend actively.

because most bitcoin users are an investor or a trader to obtain and collect bitcoin for profit. This makes only a few people who choose to spend their bitcoin. This is reasonable because most of the time of initial adoption is due to the high price of bitcoin. I'm sure a lot of people it is a trader

Trading is a good way to multiply your coins, and everyone wants to try their luck on it to earn some extra profits over a period of time and is quiet reasonable.

Yeah, because of the coming halving most of the people are just holding their bitcoins and doesn't use bitcoin often. Because they know that after
the halving it is a good way to increase the price and also their profit.

True but knowledge in trading is the hard part. To what coin will you trade it (if you are in altcoin) you  would need some knowledge if that coin will really grow its price.

You just need to ask the trading experts and get some insights from them. And if you see their advice would be helpful to you, then absorb it.
But if you think it won't , then just leave it.
Trading needs to have a wise decision, so that you will earn even 5% from your investment a day.

Its always good to seek guidance from the experts at initial stage and it will clear your many doubts and make easy for you, and the if you are comfortable with it you can continue or else ignore it.

for the few places that do accept bitcoin, do you currently spend the coins you hold at any of them?

I know places like www.takeaway.com accept bitcoin and i even heard CEX.co.uk accept bitcoin in stores now too, but does anyone spend the bitcoins they have or do most just onto hold them? (Or gamble them lol)

I wonder if there will ever be any retailers that only accept bitcoin.
There are many services/merchants/shops accepting bitcoin right now, and the number is growing. The problem is that usually payment with bitcoin is not widely announced and are often hidden under debit/credit, paypal and bank transfer method of payment. Usually you can chose bitcoin payment only if you are finalizing your purchase.
i never spent my coins you need to hold them and wait for the best moment to sell them. That would be many times better then when you want to sell them now and does not make any profit out of it why did you buy them in the first time.

We all want to spend our coins but the fact is spending with bitcoin is very limited at this stage, so I am not spending it just keeping it safe for the future.

there are some people who have a goal difference as they are and join in bitcoin there are people who join and buy bitcoin to gamble or buy something with bitcoin they will often spend their BTC. and there are also people who buy bitcoin for their investment will hold and not spend bitcoin

Don't go with the flow if the people does spend money with bitcoins. Spending actively will just make your money wasted easily. You need to consider on the things that you need to buy, and it is better to save money
as you can so that in case of emergency you have something to pull to your pocket.
