Maybe it is a very good decision to use it as an investment but for me, I don't mind about the investment for now it is important for me to use it as a currency because I really need a money for some of my expenses and I am almost dying just to get a solution for it good thing that I have discovered bitcoin .

Yes and I think that bitcoin is a currency and it should be used as a currency then only it will take price of bitcoin to a higher level in future.
and currency is used for buying and selling good. but what can we do if we have no such facilities in the local market. therefore we are only holding it and can wait for the price increase.

If you are not able to spend it directly then you should sell it and convert it to your local currency and then spend, as the circulation of bitcoin is very important.

No, it is not the real circulation of bitcoin, the real circulation is that where you use your bitcoin for buying services and goods and use bitcoin for all of your transactions, it is actually good for the success of bitcoin, and selling it is not its circulation, but it is its rejection and its dumping.

I am also doing the same, when I am unable to spend it directly for any purchase i convert that bitcoins to fiat and buy that thing. I hope in the future i buy every thing with bitcoin.

For me Bitcoin right now is a combination of an investment and a currency.

I have been started to spend my coins more on certain digital goods as it's easy and convenient and in some cases even cheaper!
yeah I also use bitcoin as a currency or an investment because you are free to use for anything with bitcoin. so it's up to you want to use bitcoin for what. I myself use bitcoin to buy goods and often I use bitcoin to invest. there is many you can do with bitcoin not only currency and investment

Its good to use it for both purposes but as an user of bitcoin I think our primary concern should be to use it as an currency as it is an currency and it should be treated in same way.

If each and every user will start using and spending it like an currency then we can expect bitcoin to be much stronger currency in future.

I'm 100% investment so far - when my trading profit hits a certain level (not sure what that will be yet) I'll start taking some BTC out. Until then I'm trying to build up a nice amount of trading capital.

Investment.  If the price ever reaches a certain point I'll start spending it, but for the foreseeable future I will be stacking.

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?

It would be both for me. I use it as currency when I received my payments online and use it also for buying something and then for sending money to my family in our country. I use it as investment because I trade with it and then store some also in my wallet so that when the price goes up I would be able to sell it.

that is true but users need some place to spend their coins, and that place is nowhere to be found in many cases! for example you can't find anywhere (offline) to spend your bitcoin in my country and in other countries there are so few places that do accept bitcoin.

so i think it is better to say, we should start requesting businesses to add bitcoin payment. for example gamers requested valve to add bitcoin payment and they finally did after a long time. so i would expect the same thing in any other business out there.

It's Both for me. I'm earning bitcoins as a extra income so I will definitely use it as a currency but I'm considering earning bitcoins for a long time so I'm keeping some for investments

i use bitcoin for both.
we can all use bitcoin as investment and i think anybody who has ever bought bitcoin or even has ever received bitcoin as a payment and kept it is using it as an investment.
but since using bitcoin as currency is harder because of the rarity of merchants accepting bitcoin, fewer people are using it as currency.

If I would say both of them because I do not really invested in bitcoin , I would say that I have been saving bitcoin to invest
in the future. and I also use bitcoin almost every day to buy airtime or electricity bill so for me it is
currency .
