Yes I spend it whenever I need money in case of emergencies, I sell it and convert it to fiat currency, and sometimes I also spend it on gambling and for mobile top ups using bitrefill.com

Never needed to convert my bitcoins to fiat or never got such emergencies that could compel me to do that, but i also use bitrefill.com to top up my mobile and run my 4g internet with that, and that is a really big help for me as i'm a student and all i have are just bitcoins.
That is good for you that you never encounter any emergency cases, but me if i have good value of bitcoin i prefer to exchange it to fiat because every month i need extra money for my utility bills.
You have no choice man because you need to pay your utility bills, investment will only come when you can afford to do it as if not and you will enter in it, you might have a big problem in the future if bitcoin will not succeed.

Bitcoin is already successful, don't you see the growth of bitcoin in past few years? And it will be more higher in value in future so I don't think there is anything to worry about it.
yeah, bitcoin is really successful to be honest, in my opinion the price of the bitcoin is going to be growing really fast in the future and make me money
In the virtual world, that is. We are all still waiting for bitcoin's successful physical integration in the majority of stores, just as how paypal is integrated in most. After that spending bitcoin will have no difference from fiats virtually.

I think it will long time for that to happen, we cannot say that bitcoin is too popular at a moment and that is the reason we are unable to spend our coins directly.

since i am indian and in india there is no practical way to spent btc . but i am using btc to spent at purse.io to purchase some gift card and purchase items .
I think we can not always rely on the online shop to buy things every day and we could not buy food and drinks online because of course
it will take a long time and besides that we will lose to pay a fee for shipping costs and so on. it would be quite expensive

yes that is a fact and i am agree with you that btcoin still need some more time to become so much popular that people start it using in their local market, and when every thing will be easily available in for trading in bitcoin.

there are few cafes shops in the uk thats accepts coin and i somehow spend some  have you your experience ? and how did you feel? when i was  sending coin  peoplein the cafe was looking at me and asked me about it truly i feelt like im .... hurraaaaaaaa
I wish I could, I find btc very convenient, unfortunately my country is not yet developed enough for using btc in public places.

There are some online stores which are providing goods for almost all of the world, you can go there and can buy any thing you want with bitcoin, I think with that you will be able to to use your coins for your real life.

Can you tell the name of those stores? As even I found many but the fact is their shipping cost is too high and that is not affordable for me so I avoid buying anything with bitcoins.

i hope it will happen near future and bitcoin really very popular than other currency.
It will be popular but we cannot beat the popularity of the fiat, bitcoin will be widely use in the world but it would always be an alternate currency for online transactions to have comfort in transaction. Just don't expect to much as we are still in the early phase.

I think for online shopping people will prefer to use bitcoin, but for buying physical things people will continue with fiat and credit card as its very convenient to use.

Buying an item online with bitcoins is not really that considered using bitcoin in real life.
I pretty very much believe op is thinking about purchasing physical goods onhand with bitcoins directly. But that is just not for everyone because not all countries have stores that accepts bitcoins just yet.

Yup and I think we should give some more time to bitcoin to really grow and reach to the every corner of the world and in future thing will change for sure and we will find many places to spend our coins.

I try to use it as often as possible, I use overstock.com a good amount of the time to purchase physical goods which I guess would have to count as being used in real life.

Not many places where I live offer it but any place that does I go ahead and take advantage of the opportunity.

Many of this have this issue bitcoin usability is lacking a real choice which makes people not to use bitcoin in shops etc.
This is growing, but at a very very silent speed.

Buy online gift card codes on www.egifter.com  Zero shipping fees. 

Pay with BTC or Altcoins and earn extra bonus points.

We are finding many sites where we can buy things using bitcoin but same scenario is not with spending at physical places and I think it will take long time for it to happen.

I heard starbucks on brazil alrady accepting bitcoin as payment.. and i think they dont need to wait for long time in confirmation while waiting for your coffee. the transaction right now is fast than before.. the hash rate is increased so i think it can help too to increase the transactions.
1 confirmation is enough like other gambling site here they are just waiting only for 1 confirmation unlike before they are waiting for 3 or more confirmation before it will credited in your balance..

Exactly and I don't think that now they will be waiting for even 1 confirmation, if they see incoming transaction in their wallet then its done, no need to wait for confirmation.
