Bitcoin in everyday life

[Labumi]

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.

I think this will even turn from what you think. because supermarkets are definitely also will seek a greater advantage in using bitcoin as payment. I think they will give you a much lower price than they were, because they certainly know about the unstable price bitcoin

What is your opinion: will btc become a currency with which you can pay in supermarkets, subways etc?
Or will it remain a crypto-currency used mostly in the Internet?

I think Bitcoin use will first spread in the Internet. With online shopping, the advantages of Bitcoin over established payment systems become most apparent. For brick-and-mortar stores, Bitcoin has to compete with physical cash payments. Equipping these stores with payment terminals (or at least smartphones) and training the staff to handle Bitcoin payments are additional hurdles.

However in the end, I'm pretty sure, that Bitcoin will be highly successful on all fronts - even if traditional payment system might not entirely disappear anytime soon. After all, there are already physical locations that accept Bitcoin. The trend on coinmap is really encouraging.

ya.ya.yo!

Well supermarkets and subways accept POS payments, I do not see any reason why bitcoins cannot be integrated into POS terminals and you can just swipe your bitcoin debit card and pay for stuff.

The debit card will be best for POS payments since lots of people can't memorize their private keys...

I think it will happen in the future.. because brazil have 150 stores are accepting bitcoin as payment.. and also we can use master card and debit card that associated with bitcoin like coinbank of bit-x.. So i think we are already using bitcoin in our daily life not everywhere but in some countries..

Due to large block times it will not be used for daily payments, but it can be used as an investment option.
For daily payments, i think ethereum will be a better cryptocurrency.

I think in present time it may be only the crypto currency and mostly be use in internet. although there may be some are like Brazil where people will be using it in real life. but in most of the area there is no such facilities. but I am hopeful that in coming days the use of bitcoin in real life is increasing  and people start buying and selling in bitcoin currency.

it's growing, we are getting closer to this. We already have services that make it possible(like bitcoin debitcards) and with more time we might have it online sending directly from our wallet.

Well, it's not gonna happen just "in the future" because technically, it's already happening right now. Although there are only some chosen locations that have stores that accept bitcoins. In my place however, there isn't one near just yet but it's only a matter of time when someone actually starts accepting bitcoins.

people and me will asking the same questions such as you because i do expect that my bitcoin could used for physical stores even though currently my bitcoin only could used for particular online stores but might be someday it would be happened if my country admit bitcoin as the new currency but i don't know when it will happen

[Junko]

Sometime in the future, everyone will be using bitcoin and not even know they are using it. 

[helloeverybody]

I dont think bitcoin will ever become a currency that will be used for everyday life. There may come a time when some cryptocurrency is used in everyday life but not bitcoin. I do think it could become the new gold though and be used as an investers tool. no reason it  couldnt reach moon levels by doing this either.

It will remain n internet and will also supported by ATM cards and still it can be used like a normal currency as people nowadays prefer to shift to digital system with all of their businesses, so with that they will prefer digital currency with digital payment.

[PsursV]

I think in my country not only I but all my other friends must be use bitcoin as a currency using internet. but we cannot use it in our supermarket because the shopkeepers do not know any thing about bitcoin they have no idea about bitcoin. I think it will take such a long time when these shopkeeper may be able to learn about bitcoin and then accept bitocin in their shops.

If you are asking to spend bitcoin in daily life then to be honest that is not possible for me at a moment as there is no place where I can spend my bitcoins, the usage is limited only online.

[eternalgloom]

I really could see Bitcoin being accepted at more brick and mortar stores. It would be pretty easy to just pay for your purchase using a wallet on your phone.
AFAIK it's possible to pay with your phone in McDonalds in my country, through another service called SEQR.

I wouldn't be surprised if they also added Bitcoin, one day..

It's a good idea but for now we don't really what should happen ,I really want to use it at daily like using it in supermarket ,bitcoin  now had many things to use expect more to happen every year.

I think eventually it will be come the currency of the world, and will be worth a fortune .....

i think you are right about it, bitcoins has a lot of potential to becoming the currency of the world and i think that this will happen, i hope it will make me some good money really easily

[Doamader]

I hope bitcoin can be used online and on the everyday life as well, would be amazing go to market and instead get a credit or cash pay with my cellphone scanning the code and making the payment, people would start to think about what is bitcoin.
