I've been using bitcoin as a source o income online. I accept both USD an BTC online. I use tem to support my living so bitcoin is important for me in every way since I don't hae yet a real job to support my expenses. Smiley

That's cool and highly appreciated because many don't even try to earn when they are online also try to learn as much as possible about the future currency"Bitcoin". Knowledge is money and also spread awareness about bitcoin to your family and friends let's help BTC to become mainstream.

Well, I normally make use of bitcoin in receiving payments when I offer services online, because it is more secure than other payment processors. It is very important to me, when I have nothing doing, I simply go online to claim more free bitcoins, I also use it to buy things online wherever it is accepted.

as important as my Mother, almost

With bitcoin you exercise freedom and liberty, being independent of the government. Such a freedom provider must be equivalent to Mother. No doubts.
I store my bitcoins waiting for it to have more value, like Mother cares for us always. I do not have any plan to sell of my bitcoin, because in future it will be more important to me than today.

I would say its tied between store of value and using it as a payment to friends and family. It's so much easier to pay someone I owe or have someone pay me back instead of using cash or traditional banks with transfers. Also great that it isn't reversible compared to PayPal.

"Store of value independent of the government similar to gold"

There needs to be alot of work done with regard to block size, fees, and general applications, but bitcoin is doing very well.  The only thing that is a concern / big concern is the event that SHA256 is broken.

I am not using bitcoins as of right now. I am holding for the moment like most people are at this point. I might sell when I think that I can benefit of the profits I will make.
Until then I will be holding and earning as much bitcoin as I can, I would have to rethink about buying bitcoin for now.

Some estimates suggest that upto 40% of Bitcoins are sitting in an exchange, where users wait for it's price to go up.
This is the reason why many governments do not consider Bitcoin to be currency, because a currency is not a speculative asset.

Doing something like that would completely kill Bitcoin.

I use bitcoins to buy stuff at a discount price as well, like steam games as stuff. Because people don't trust Paypal these days.

I personally say 2. Not totally, but cost enough. It's an asset that had the potential to become a global currency, as it is borderless, peer-to-peer, decentralised, and has a super fast transaction speed if you get the mining fee right.

Besides that, I just love the magic of the blockchain. How an open ledger can keep users anonymous.

Voted for Speculation, because right now the price is too volatile for BTC to be considered as a store of value in the long term.

My thoughts exactly. A store of value for the long term would be savings. Bitcoins are definitely not savings at this point. I don't go looking on a stock exchange for the most volatile start-ups and invest my down payment for a house in it!

I voted speculation. When Bitcoins are more mature and stable they'll be a long term store of value for me.

Speculation. I like the btc as an optional way to make money. I have been forex trader for several years and I have learned to avoid excessive love for any currency or commodity: buy it low, sell it high.

Exactly and earning bitcoins is something passive income for me and it is taking care of my basic expenses as whenever I need fiat, I convert my btc to fiat and enjoy everything whether it is food, online shopping or my mobile recharge, bitcoin is taking care of my basic stuff and I am enjoying it.
