It's the best way I can receive money that is from another country, to avoid ridicously high taxes and bank fees.

Yeah that is the nice think about bitcoins just so low taxes if you give money to other country.
The only problem is that the most people don't know how to use it. Maybe the new generation will know it more.

Remember that Bitcoin is still beta software. Don't put all of your money into BTC!

Conclusion: don't use bitcoin for everyday stuffs and use it very carefully in investments which can grow the amount of those in your wallet. Bitcoin is precious. There are justified hopes that its value will greater in the times to come.

Wouldn't it make sense that people who want to promote bitcoin use bitcoins for everyday stuff whenever possible? What will make it grow in value is more people using it. The more retailers that accept bitcoin because more people are willing to use it as a method of payment will grow.  So if there was something that I wanted for $500, I would first find out if someone was selling it for bitcoin and buy it with that, or if I wanted to go out to eat somewhere, a place that accepts bitcoin will be a considering factor. As more retailers accept them so will others because their competitors will have an advantage.  Since retailers have many benefits from using them, they could also offer a discount which would encourage more consumer use. This seems like one way we can help make it a more commonly used currency and grow it's value.  People who just have some in cold storage or use them sparingly could help facilitate its acceptance by using them whenever they can. Of course, everytime I used bitcoin for everyday stuff, I would immediately replenish that amount in bitcoins from cash.

Only the last your sentence make me to not begin another argumentation about the point of view of you an me. I forget to add this your phrase to my post. So, my post would be fully meaning if I would wrote at the end: Or if you want to use it find the way to buy at least the same amount to replace it immediately.

Your consideration are more than right. It must be so because the use of bitcoin help in its spread and this spread make more possible the achieve of our hopes. Anyway if after the use of it, everyone don't buy at least the same used amount, my previous post (even can be considered as very selfish) it is the best answer that can be given about the use or not of bitcoin.  Wink I repeat: Something rare cannot be used for everyday stuff. Cannot be used at all every day. It is like you sell every day diamonds or perls or gold to buy bread. Make no sense.

Bitcoin has a chance of becoming the future currency, in the very distant future. It is not developed enough and not enough people know about it. It is fast, cheap and anonymous. 3 things people love.

People should use bitcoin because it has more potential to grow rather than other any currency out there. It's easy to use as well.

It reduces the middleman in online purchases like paypal or credit card. It also protects sellers from invalid chargebacks.

No, I think that for more people, they do not understand Bitcoin, it is more difficult to use

Every new thing normally is unknown thing and as such, difficult to be understand and maybe even to use. But after a few time everyone who want to learn about that or have need to use that is able to use it without problem. Let make as example the computer. At the beginning the use of it was only from the scientists and academic people who belonged e restricted area or fields of knowledge. Today is not strange to find even very old man and women who passe their time in front of an computer. In other words being difficult for something new doesn't mean that cannot be adopted. Maybe needed more time to be adopted but everything can be learn. If not so the humanity wasn't arrived here where it is. Without the new (and difficult) things we all had been at the Iron age.

People need to start getting paid in bitcoin--and I mean by corporations like McDonalds and Walmart, not solely by tech folks on these forums.  If that starts happening, then there won't be any question bitcoin will be widely adopted and this question will answer itself.

In the US and other countries I'm sure, it's very useful to send money across borders to family cheaply.

The only way this has even the slightest chance of happening, is if people can pay their bills/loans/mortgages/etc. with Bitcoin. Since a large majority of those companies that we all need to pay every month is highly regulated by government and needs to be able to tax this kind of thing (not to mention income taxes) then we can't proceed with this type of mainstream adoption.

Yes international money transfer are made easy and more convenient with bitcoin. I have been into online earning since 2010 and paid more than $1500 in transaction, withdrawal and in money conversion charges. With bitcoin it would be just $200 fees only. This may be one simple example why I should have used bitcoin.
