There are many reasons why people would want to use Bitcoin instead of fiat money. Here are a few reasons:
The simplicity of transferring money, even internationally.
The transfers are almost instantaneous, with very small transaction fees, and no documents are needed.
The fees are also low when exchanging with fiat money.
Buyers and sellers can directly pay each other.
There isn't any central bank that can "print" more Bitcoins and devalue it.
It's much more convenient than storing gold.

Lots of places to spend your bitcoins on. You don't have to spend it on those subjects you mentioned
It depends. Maybe in your place there are lot of places but not in mine. It is hard to see a stall with a sign that accepts bitcoin. It is always changing it to hard cash first before you can even spend it. Now, I have just been doing online buying instead of going to the mall. The same thing with me either there are only few places here in my country where I can use bitcoins and there is no physical store that accepts it. Good thing that the exchange here is capable for accepting bitcoins by using their service that we are able to buy prepaid load cards. And as well as paying our monthly dues. Here in my country also i cannot use bitcoin on any physical store , only thing i can do is convert to fiat currency and use it or i can only recharge my mobile phone, data card and some online services because that is carried on by individual person who wants btc Maybe one day other shopping websites would want to take in bitcoin as a real currency. |

Yeah you are correct. This is putting a bad reputation of Bitcoin to the public. These are all disgraceful activities, but unfortunately we cannot do much about it. Everyone has access to Bitcoin, whether it be for a good or bad use.

More easy for transactions is my considering to use bitcoin over fiat money. Besides that, bitcoin also can use for long term investment, and I like gambling so, when gambling with bitcoin is more secure.
why bitcoin is more secure in gambling? How security issue works in any gambling ? Gambling is a pure luck. Nothing can secure any luck or gambling thing. BUt yes BTC as faster than fiat if you consider to withdraw in cash form. But fiat money transfer is also fast. If you want to transact only from one account to another, even fiat is somehow fast but in case of withdraw you have to depend on some centralized authority. Bitcoin can be more secure than using fiat to gamble if you are in a country where gambling is illegal, that way you avoid linking your identity to your gambling and that could be a way to avoid prosecution in your country. |

Exactly, and even if it's not illegal, bitcoin is still more convenient than fiat. With bitcoin, there's no need to pay bigger transaction fee using a online banking fund transfer or the service of popular payment processor. It's pretty simple, you just have to obtain BTC and you are good to go.The security by hiding our personal information is something that attract big bettors, it's the freedom that we are looking for and any problem may arise in the future will not help us accountable as there is no trace or trail at all. |

As many say "BITCOIN is FREEDOM" and the reason many wants to use bitcoin is to get away from banks and governments eyes therefore, many uses it for whatever they want to use it, regardless of it being used in bad or good. We can't change that thing, it is part of the growth, there are no rules in using bitcoin and there are no government law is governing the use of it, therefore it can be used in any way we want it. It could probably damage the reputation of bitcoin but it won't be that big, just like how fiat is being damaged by its everyday dealings. |

Bitcoin itself is a currency and currencies are credits one gets as a reward or as a payment which is his/hers alone and he/she alone can spend it in a way suitable to him/her. Isn't that currency all about? Whether it be Fiat or Bitcoin. |

Yes. That is cool right? That is my introduction for those who are asking me why I do it. The easy way to send money and the fastest way. The very low transaction fees. Then I will compare it with what they are using to send money. That is how they will start bitcoin also and maybe further after the good experience. |

Mostly people use bitcoin because those thing that you texted. Bitcoin network protect the user from scam such as chargeback and unwanted charge, also bitcoin is can not be counterfeited. Some people prefer bitcoin over fiat because bitcoin is better than fiat. |

That is what good about Bitcoin Well tax evasion is what most people want to just lessen other item that has tax, sometimes people just want a transaction that are free of the fee that other instant far transaction offer and you can do it with bitcoin, but you will need to change your fiat with bitcoin first to do this, and many users of bitcoin wants to save bitcoin so they could wait for the value to go up, and bitcoin users trades with bitcoin some gamblers can play anonymously, and yes no age restriction that is why I want to put up an online store so I could save up bitcoins! |

Exactly the part of it that we can transact anywhere ,it doesn't matter when or where we will transact or whom we will transact with as long as we did research if sites or those were reliable, life with bitcoin is lot easier plus that It can increase its value by itself. |

The part where you state that we can use bitcoin for whatever we want is not completely true, if buying a particular drug is illegal in a country then it does not matter if you used fiat, bitcoin, altcoins, gold or something else, it is still illegal. |
