Yes, i spend my bitcoin actively in my daily life. It serve as my mobile load provider.
to be honest i have never tried paying with bitcoins for my phone, actually i have never spent any bitcoins
Good for you  that you didnt even spent your bitcoin and i assume you do  have  lots of  bitcoin as  of now. Spending  bitcoin  actively would be  good it depends  on  where you would  use it. Same as  others said they could load their mobile  phone  with the use of bitcoin which is trully an convenient thing.

someone not spending his coins doesn't mean he has a lot coins. these people are either hoarding their coins from signature campaigns and other sources, or directly convert all they have to fiat.

Make sure you back up your wallet regularly! Unlike a bank account, nobody can help you if you lose access to your BTC.

I never saved any bitcoin I earned for the past six months.  I always wanted to but the thing is I also needed it cover my expenses for almost everyday.  Yes, I am one of those people who uses bitcoin to load our mobile phone.  Only if I have some extra job then maybe I could save more bitcoin and eventually will have a savings.

Yes if you are earning only from bitcoins then you need to spend them regularly to take care of basic expenses, but if you  have a day job then it will make easier to save your bitcoins for future.

I also load my mobile with my bitcoins but as i don't have any other responsibilities as a student so i can save quite a lot of them, because i don't have a lot of expenses and when i need money i just cash out some of it and keep the others safe in my wallet, that is how i'm going with bitcoin.

Yes and whenever I am in need of money then I won't hesitate in selling them and convert to fiat as with fiat I can spend them at any place to buy any product with it.

So somehow it's really important to have a day job so that people's salary there will be used for daily and basic expenses.

With the status like that, their bitcoins are just saved and will just come out whenever they really need it.

Exactly, but as we know that there are many users who are still student and not having a full time job will definitely prefer to sell their coins so that it can take care of their pocket money.

I think for those student they can still save their bitcoin just don't spend their all earnings get from signature campaign and other activity so that they have a good future to make more profit if the price of bitcoin will increase more.

It is a must to have a day job ifyou are just starting with bitcoin.  It will give you lots of advantage if you have your day job and have your job that pay in bitcoin.  One reason is that you don't have to worry if one of those job got a problem.  Second, you will be enjoying some financial freedom because you are  earning more than what you really need..

If that is the case then no choice but to use their bitcoin for the moment. After they succesfully finished their studies then they can have another opportunity to earn more by finding real life job and just continue their usual work to earn bitcoin.


It is a must to have a day job ifyou are just starting with bitcoin.  It will give you lots of advantage if you have your day job and have your job that pay in bitcoin.  One reason is that you don't have to worry if one of those job got a problem.  Second, you will be enjoying some financial freedom because you are  earning more than what you really need..


Yes multiple source of income indeed. And besides some of the bitcoin works doesn't need to spend most of your time per day so still you can do both without pressuring yourself.

Yeah if you can manage you schedule smartly then you can easily earn from both of them and you don't need to sacrifice your full time job for bitcoin, working on both will give you higher income.

i spend my bitcoins. but only for digital goods.
e.g. my vpn accepts BTC. andi bought some apps with BTC.
I do not spend my Bitcoin that often because I am here to make some money and save money. I think that if you make use of Bitcoin because of that reason that you should not spend Bitcoin.
It is then better to spend your money and hold on to your Bitcoin.

How about an addition to the question on to what you are spending your bitcoin to?
The question can only be answered by yes or no so we might want to add up.
I am using it or spending it with game top ups. It is not really for me but for my friends who are playing online games. I just put a little interest on it for a friendly price.

If its an long term investment for you then better not to spend them and save them for future and you can sell them only when price goes higher allowing you to make higher profits.

Yes if you are earning only from bitcoins then you need to spend them regularly to take care of basic expenses, but if you  have a day job then it will make easier to save your bitcoins for future.

So somehow it's really important to have a day job so that people's salary there will be used for daily and basic expenses.

With the status like that, their bitcoins are just saved and will just come out whenever they really need it.

Thats true,,,, someone without any day job would probably not be able to save all his coins because he will need to spend some of it in between every period of a month or something like that, but if someone has a job he wont need to convert or spend his bitcoins, same goes with me, i don't have any day job so i'm not able to save all my coins every month.

Yes. it is hard to save the online earning for an online employee who do all time work with bitcoin.. but some big developers and programmers can still save their money because they are earning very good salary from bitcoin. I know some altcoin developers and gambling site's mods who are earning 500$ a week.. so if someone get a job like that he will probably be able to spend and save both.

I mostly buy online with Bitcoin, use it for gaming to buy in game currency and from time to time to buy drink at one coffee shop near my place.

That's great to hear that you can buy coffee with your bitcoins and I really wish that I could spend it on a coffee or a glass of beer so that I can go cashless every time when I want to spend my bitcoins.
