[Amph]

[lister storm]

i buy bitcoins very rarely, but when i buy my bitcoins i usually buy a lot of them as i believe that bitcoin price is going to grow significantly

[richardsNY]

At this moment I am buying Bitcoins mainly for investment purposes. Once the price reaches a certain high level, then I will sell some of my Bitcoins or spend it on something useful.

[TheButterZone]

So those BTC I buy can't be used to tank the market.

That's the right thing to do, as the price is not skyrocket yet, we can afford to buy some bitcoins at a moment and hold it for future, and sell when the price climbs up.

i think bitcoin have a great future so that is why i'm buying bitcoins

Yeah bitcoin holds a great future and it will be more powerful currency in future, as more and more users would start bitcoin as a currency, the value would be too high in future, and that is the reason I am buying bitcoins.

There is more than one reason to buy bitcoins, i like to buy them as investment (you can say speculation) i think that bitcoin price could double its value in few years. You can transfer your money (bitcoins) from one country to another with very small fees. And because i don't like banks, and bitcoin can fight against the bank system.

[xymor]

I think the technology is revolutionary but I'm not an speculator.

I have 1 btc which I use in btcjam and btclending.

[Slark]

I think for now bitcoin is still treated by most people as speculative and investment tool. Some still believe that bitcoin price will reach 'the moon' value someday.
As there is not really much incentive to use bitcoin as payment method over PayPal of credit/debit cards.

I've bought BTC because I don't trust much banks or the financial regulators and politicians which should guarantee that national fiat currencies will not loose their value over time. Can you trust the Federal Reserve? The European Central Bank? The blockchain is probably better than them, even with the block size issue unresolved.

Most common purpose would be as an investment. Personally I am buying bitcoins as an investment; trade it , gamble it, or just simply hold it for a long time then wait for the price to pump out. I rarely buy though since I can earn them nowadays but right now seems the right time to buy some

[Moneyburner]

95% just to hold and profit. 5% was wanted to gamble at home because I was bored

you ca actually have free bitcoin on purse.io, if you think about it, and if you're lucky with big discount

I have never heard of this site? What this site. similar to the wallet as blockchain?
I looked on google. 25% discount for shopping at amazon with purse.io. is that true ? are you using it ?

[Hugroll]

everytime i have this feeling that in 10years from now bitcoin is going to be worth about 5000 bucks each, and i feel ill regret not buying as much bitcoin. and that makes me buy more today 

[SFR10]

Well mostly to send money and do business that I have better control of but there are other reasons as well like buying to let it seat on my wallet and waiting for the price to reach the sky before I start selling them and earn good amount of profits.

[mrhelpful]

To control my money

I would like to add on security and yes for profit lol.

Like most of us all are..  just hope that this next halving pumps up the price a bit to keep my faith up.

[bearex]

Mostly as an investment, or for further trading. But when i am able to pay with them, i would also buy them for that purpouse.

[sishendaoye]

I buy bitcoins because the future of the bitcoin is very good so that's one of the main points I buy the bitcoin.
The bitcoin is the future of the global currency's so that is another reason, its the future.
