I never spent coins in real life and that is all because i dont like to spent my coins into bullshit you know everytone needs to spent their coins where ever they want you know.
yeah I think everybody wants to do their spending something in need of it. but you know this time bitcoin has not been so accepted. only a few merchants who accept and perhaps receive it only domain sites and the like. of course we could not buy a domain in every day right ?
People are willing to spend their coins but the fact is they don't find any place to do so, as bitcoin has not reached to physical places yet but may be in future things will change.

Yes users in Europe are pretty lucky that thet are able to use bitcoins in real life offline as well quiet regularily but thats not possible in my country yet.
So i only able to spend my bitcoins online doing stuffs like gambling and mobile recharges but not more.

Yes the usage of bitcoin is limited for us and its only limited to online stuffs and I don't think we can do much with bitcoin when it comes to buying anything, so it has become an investment for me.

I have voted no because there is no stores accepting bitcoin in my place and on internet i don't buy anything because i don't want to pay those too much shipping fees.

One more problem that needs to be resolved. The shipping fees. We ought to buy at a online store from a different country so there will be a larger fee. But what if their bases are in our own countries? That will be lesser payment because they wont need an international shipping fee.

Exactly, shipping fees is a major issue in online shopping as if you are based in different country then you won't be able to afford it and it won't be profitable for you to buy things online.

I agree and the same thing will happened even if we can purchase the product thru bitcoin as no merchants will do an exact conversion of btc to usd to cover the risk of accepting bitcoin as payment method.

In some countries, there are local exchanger that giving such services so that people can able to buy at international store with really low shipping fees. Not that much but more cheaper than doing a direct buy to those merchants outside the country.

But there are a  number of stores which will not have any high shipping fees, you can use amazon or ebay with the help of purse.io and shopawl, we can see a number of products on those sites which have zero shipping fee.

Not at all times maybe when it times of needed. An urgent and emergency because bitcoin for is just like banks that refers to my personal savings and you need to spend it during emergency of your life. The only difference is you can also you use it directly for investment purposes.

And that is the advantage compared to other investment out there, bitcoin is both a currency and investment so we should use it. Also, as an investment we have to control ourselves in spending our bitcoin because we can always make a great profit in the future with our bitcoin when this succeeds.

I use it mostly in the cryptocurrency market and investing in other projects, but I rarely use it for daily expenses.
yeah I also use bitcoin just to get benefits like buying altcoin and used to make an investment or trade. I rarely use bitcoin to buy daily necessities.
besides that we are still very hard to find merchants who accept bitcoin

I miss my favorite shops accepting bitcoin. Also i am just new so I don't got a lot of bitcoin.
So no I am not using it.
I never spend any Bitcoin because I think that I can make allot of money with them in the future, so spending them is really a waist.
Maybe in the future when there are better things to buy with Bitcoins I will spend some.

True, spending bitcoin is not good since its better to save up bitcoin for the future investments so that you would be profitable in the long run but you cant  avoid  sometimes that you would able to use  your bitcoin because of some circumstances.

You can spend them in case of any emergency but you should sell only that amount that you require as saving most of them can be more profitable in future so that you can sell when price goes higher.

Unexpected circumstances would cause for you to spend you savings  which is somewhat helpful but as you said  you must not spent all those saving and you must limit it for you to have  spare money in future use.  Spending bitcoin is not bad at all.

Yup and if we are earning or investing in bitcoins only because we can spend someday, as only keeping them unused in wallet will make bitcoin as a weaker currency in future.

Exactly, but even if we hold we still cannot beat those adopters who are spending, the volume of spender is way more bigger compared to the investors who are holding so that would not matter at all, just continue to hold for your future and let the others spend their bitcoins.

Everyone basically wants to benefit from what they do, so if there are people who spend most of the bitcoin then that is their right. I never thought like what you say. Just enjoy what we get and find profit in it was something fun

Exactly, but even if we hold we still cannot beat those adopters who are spending, the volume of spender is way more bigger compared to the investors who are holding so that would not matter at all, just continue to hold for your future and let the others spend their bitcoins.

Everyone basically wants to benefit from what they do, so if there are people who spend most of the bitcoin then that is their right. I never thought like what you say. Just enjoy what we get and find profit in it was something fun

Yes its our money we can do whatever we want to, if we find convenient to spend them then we should go for it and if its an investment for you then hold some of them for future.
