A lot of us are using it as a currency when paying for stuff.
And almost everyone uses it as an Investement (If not, you souldnt keep your money in bitcoins).

Majority of people are treating it in the both ways as they know if they invest in it at present then it can be the best investment for future.
For now I would say a lot of Bitcoin users fall into one of the two camps, there are some users that both use Bitcoin as a currency and investment, but a majority of them have their Bitcoin either being moved or they're holding their Bitcoin for right now.

I personally am holding a large majority of my Bitcoin now, and chances are I won't be spending it in the near future.

People are holding and not spending only because they think its an best investment for future and that is the reason they are not spending it.

When buying goods and services online - i use it as a currency to pay for. When putting bitcoins in exchange sites, cloudmining - i use it for investment. I actually use bitcoin in both terms. Example, for it is when i bought a domain hosting and domain name in Namecheap while for investment, i put some into hashocean , a cloud mining site.

Actually that is mainly the reason why bitcoin was made and truly not for investment.

It's just that it change the world of market and value was changed since then so others dive into bitcoin investment.

Do you use bitcoin as currency? Or you use bitcoin as investment? Or both?
I use bitcoin as currency and i never sell my bitcoin, but i prefer to use bitcoin when price is rising Grin

So, how about you?
Use bitcoin as currency?Yes.
Use bitcoin as investment?Yes.
I just want to take the advantages of all opportunities, With all usefulness of bitcoin, i can make bitcoin in accordance formed with the wishes.

But for investment in bitcoin have more level risk like scammer,ransome ware and etc.... I think,i liked to use bitcoin as currency....

I have not used bitcoin as a tool for investment. Some people say that investing is something which is beneficial and detrimental. I only use bitcoin as everyday currency. To buy something and play something.

have you simply held bitcoin waiting for the price to change.. similar to having a bank savings account, ?

or have you had the mindset that you need to spend bitcoin as soon as you receive it.
because holding (saving) bitcoin is investing in-and-of-itself, without needing to throw it into a third party's scheme

Right now I use bitcoin almost exclusively as an investment.  I only used it once for a purchase.  I'm trying to accumulate more bitcoin before it really takes off in price and I'm also hoping that more businesses will accept it as payment in the future.

People are holding and not spending only because they think its an best investment for future and that is the reason they are not spending it.

one of the biggest reason why people don't spend their bitcoins is that apart from the investment part and the rising price there is not enough places to spend their bitcoins and in some cases in some countries there is not even one place.

I use them as both but more on being an investment. I seldom buy using bitcoin yet. It is more of earning it as of the moment and sell it later for profit.

You are correct buddy.
When we buy bitcoin first time, it means we bought a seed of plant .
And we water everyday to grow the plant and finally to harvest the fruits.  Tongue

you can't call it an investment in bitcoin because investment what you mean is accept other payments such as paypal, netteler, perfect money, etc and investments that you are referring to is a ponzi or hyip or moeny game.

Why "I think". You mean you are not sure lol?

Currency - Meaning you used it like normal fiat
Investmet - Trading, Holding etc to make profit from it
