There are many people that are wondering about this, but time by time it will be used mostly everywhere if the government does not ban bitcoin, until then you can use bitcoin debit cards.

Yeah bitcoin debit cards is very useful for buying anything and I think it will take long time to use bitcoin in daily life for purchasing anything as still there are many people who are not aware about it.

[Labumi]

That depends on the market situation in the future, but I have confidence that things will be done by the BTC, as btc is a currency that could provide good services compared to other currencies

Bitcoin debit cards are good when you really have no other choice to pay for services, goods. If i have to pay directly in bitcoin then it will cost me less because bitcoin debit cards have (hidden) high fees,

As of now there are already debit card, where you can use for buying stuffs. There are also bitcoin wallet on your phone but I think its much better if our phone can be used as a "beep card" where you can use in MRT and other mass transportation just by tapping it to terminal,tapping it t POS terminal when you shop etc. I think its cool.

Thats called NFC, as far as I know Google Wallet works with NFC by just tapping and go on. I have seen users here that tipped people not in this way but by giving them a paper wallet then funding it with bitcoin, it's hard using bitcoin in real life.

This will happen only if payments become faster if they remain as they are now people will not use BTC and i don't blame them for this.Imagine yourself to wait 30 minutes for your transaction to be completed while you are shopping in the supermarket.

Not easy to answer.
I believe before people will use it on a daily basis in the real world for regular shopping and stuff, it will be used mostly on the internet for some while.
This might differ from in which part of the world you are living.
In 3rd world countries where many people are underbanked or without any bank account and credit card Bitcoin can be really quick solution. In north america and europe for instance things are looking completely different and it would be a much slower transition as long as we don't see any black swan event like the € or EU going down.

I think it will become similar to paypal and credit cards as a form of payment for most merchants. It's going to take a long time for people to begin to realize bitcoin's potential in this way. If the price becomes more stable that will help move us in that direction.

[20kevin20]

It just COULD become a more-known currency.. you never know what the future can bring this world! However, I think the chances of Bitcoin to become a popular currency world-wide are small, because of the anonymity of it. I'd prefer to pay by just tapping a button instead of having to take the cash out of my wallet, but what would we do with the confirmation time?

Paypal is leading at a moment is only because it is widely spread and it exist since long time, but once people are aware about bitcoin then they will never use Paypal for sure.

First thing is government should legalize bitcoin crypto currency , So many countries still bit coin not leglized, once that is done more organisations will allow bitcoin fro transaction. Now already it is popular , but still it requires more popularity , more people shuold use bitcoin wallet , debit cards ,so then slowly it may in to dialy life

[European Central Bank]

nah. if it was big enough for supermarkets and stuff to be considering taking it, that likely means its price is a load higher than it is now. people ain't gonna want to spend it unless its growth has effectively leveled out. greed is universal.

[serjent05]

I think if the market is ready then it can be use in our local stores.  As of now there is no enough merchant and neighborhood campaign to educate vendors on how to take advantage of Bitcoin.  Secondly, there  is no bigger manufacturer / producer that accept bitcoin as mode of payment.  Almost only retailer are accepting Bitcoin then encashing them to resupply their stocks.  So  I think it is possible but not soon.

I think bitcoin will be both, because I am optimistic bitcoin will be more accepted and more widely used in the future. But for my bitcoin just me to trading in other words crypto-currency used mostly in the Internet. Hehe

Bitcoin is a cryptocurruncy and it will always remain so.Even if you spend it in supermarket or subways it will still be cryptocurruncy.Many off line store have already started accepting bitcoin but I think it will be more preferred for online transactions

[vodaljepa]

I use bitcoin to pay for my monthly electricity and water bill, love it

Yeah bitcoin is really good for online purchases and also for money transfers, and to be honest I feel that credit card is still the best for offline purchases.

It seems to only be on the internet for myself. I don't have any physical store around me that accepts bitcoins. I hope at some point they get with the times, but I'm not counting on it anytime soon.
