I largely view BTC as a safe, store of value that can never be taken away from me so long as I retain custody of my private keys. I do occasionally use BTC to buy digital goods online

In comparison with traditional investment it is perhaps one of the most interesting aspects of digital currency - the chance to stay in the end to win here are higher. Perhaps for me at the momet Bitcoin is an investment tool.
You are right soon bitcoins will be very high valued asset. that being said I am a active spender of bitcoins and often use it for gambling so for me it is a currency and I never tried to invest too much with bitcoins, because for investing I have fiat and local people.

I will use Bitcoin as a currency. I don't have trust in investment. So whenever the Bitcoin price increases and it is worthful for me, iThanI will sell my Bitcoin and make some money. In my country no shoppes and no online sites can accept this Bitcoin as a legal currency, So I will sell my coins and make some profit.

Yes, I also voted for "Both of them" although it's still pretty hard to buy things with Bitcoin where I live. So Bitcoin is mostly an investment to me, and it's a pretty good one I must add.

Well, I also sometimes use it to buy something. so many people who see bitcoin as a currency and as an investment tool. I also saw bitcoin as both. I guess because bitcoin really has that potential. but the best thing you can do bitcoin is as an investment tool, because with that advantage, so many people using bitcoin as their livelihood

In my mind, I am thinking that I use bitcoin as an investment but what I actually doing is using it as currency - I usually exchange only 2 cryptocurrency: bitcoin and doge. I sell doge for btc when doge is high and I buy doge with btc when the doge price is low - my profit is the difference of high and low price of doge.

Yes it is both for me too. Since it's price fluctuate every now and then, and most of the time it increases,  it is good to hold btc as investment to use as currency later. But if everyone does that and doesn't use bitcoins then it's price won't increase, I am scared.

Well investing to gambling is not really recommended. Anyway, I primarily treat bitcoin as an investment due to the fact that I'm not able to sell it until it didn't reach the $750-$780 again. I'm not worrying about it because I know the price would increase since the halving has already started.
We can't call put the money in gambling is an investment because it can be lost at any time. the investment means savings some money or assets with expectations will get some profits someday... but let's see about the price of bitcoin after halving.. you're true the price would increase but by slowly.

The primary purpose of users should be to use it as a currency, if people will not spend it and use it as a currency then the price of bitcoin will not go higher in future.

yes indeed we should keep using it and invite more investors to attract the more we use it as a currency the more the price will increase and the more attention will be gathered i think both is okay because whenever we use bitcoin as a currency we are also investing for it to be more popular and be used and chain reaction will come price will increase after.

I see it as a currency not like what you use them for.  I actually get myself some bitcoin to buy altcoins and trade it to produce more BTC and buy it again.  Once I gathered enough to buy something online, i never hessitate to use it to buy stuff.  Or if I need money, I encash it to use in my everyday life.

Yeah its hard to find many shops accepting bitcoin as a payment method, so majority of coins are saved in wallet and I sell some of them if I am in urgent need of money.

Only countable number of stores accept bitcoin as a currency for the products and services provided. For this reason most of the time will convert to fiat and do buying. Most likely I consider it as a big investment and earning source than using it as a currency.

It is much better to choose both currency and investment , we will never prevent ourselves of using and spending bitcoin because of our needs and theres nothing wrong with it . Making an investment with bitcoin would be very much great and it would be exciting if you would have a profit from it . I suggest not to choose only one either it is a currency or it is a investment , bitcoin is actually a currency but a decentralized digital currency and also it is very suitable for investment .
