SOME of it as a currency as I have a bit-X debit card. Some is saved as a long term wealth. I do what I can not to spend

all of what I get, but divide it in 2 and allow myself some and save the other half. I would save half and add a new payment

to the half that is there in the wallet already, then split the new balance in two and spend HALF in the btc debit card the latter

half. This way, the coin seems to accumulate.

Well this poll is turning out just like I thought it would.  I understand that the results are somewhat shocking for some people.
The majority of us are using Bitcoin as a savings account primarily.

Avoid the XT shills, they only want to destroy bitcoin, their hubris and greed will destroy us.

I think i mainly use it as a store of wealth, but i do experiment with bitcoin as a speculative investment which will hopefully increase massively.

What do you currently use Bitcoin for the most?

I intentionally left out an 'other' or 'both' option. I want people to chose from the given options.
I only want to know what your currently using bitcoin for not what you intended to use it as or one day hope to use it as. Only what your currently using it for the most!

I`m usin coins for gambling and just for gambling, for me that is perfect thing. I dont spend money I earn from job, I just can spend what I earn here and on some other places. Its great for me, I cant say I`m lucky for now, but I`m playin having fun. For me its great when im free to make a cigar and coffe, sit in my chair with some nice music and play poker, dices, roulette. I think I will never storage bitcoins, I like to earn it and spend it, my goal is to find some income that will be monthly so I can count on that. I plan to buy cs go but I cant find where to buy it with btc.

Bitcoin related purchases here that are small since I don't want to spend to much and gambling. I see it as a store of wealth more than a currency ATM but that could quickly change over the next few years.

I am using bitcoin as a currency... I need it...I buy some things from it...but I could say that I am also using it as an investment because I put it in an echange site rather than my bitcoincore wallet...  Smiley

Voted for a currency! Because I did not hold so many bitcoin.
Also I usually spend bitcoin for buying stuff online like a giftcard, pay internet bill etc.
So I think I have used bitcoin as a digital currency.

I'm using it for the 1st and 3rd option at the moment (mostly for remittance purposes). It's a lot easier to convert it from something that it isn't used over the net (or vice versa) and also as a currency because I give it to someone when I do purchases (mostly online).

Yeah, generally I use it for remittance purposes as it is very convenient, fast and cheap as compared to banks or WU so for me its a currency as I can transfer it to my bank account and can withdraw any mode of time, and I also used it for gambling sometimes as it allows me to gamble even with a very small amount.

I think  that you should add gambling/betting. That's one of the use Bitcoin have for me and probably for a lot of people Smiley.

But the price far low from yesterday. I use bitcoin normally for buying accessories in online stores and I use to save some as well. But according to current situation. I think better I could buy some bitcoins and keep with me for long term to make profit after block halving.
