It was one on the issue Satoshi saw the world needed it. But as far now it mainly use is trading for speculation by the newbie and holding by one who bought it years ago.
Of course it needs to be legalised FIRST somewhere. But after that a, will you buy something online and pay in BTC ? Or it’s just a form of investment like gold was a decade ago ?
I used Bitcoin for online paying before today.. Bought items, paid for service.. I keep bitcoin now because price is very high..

I haven't used it as a payment method yet. I haven't seen it yet where i buy online, but even if i there was the option of BTC i wouldn't do it. I think that right now BTC has more value as an asset in trading or just investing rather than using it as a transaction coin.
I agree and also haven't used bitcoin as a payment method on buying/paying online, But you can use bitcoin as a digital currency for paying online. In my country, there is no online shops or place that i usually go to buy things or buy services because i am more on like a simple lifestyle where i just spend money in clothes, gadget and things what I need in my everyday life. I use bitcoin also as an investment for future.

i never buy stuff on internet with bitcoin. if i have one i will exchange to regular money. in my country you can make transaction use bitcoin just with people that accept bitcoin itself.
Well bitcoin is a digital currency but most of sites and people do not accept bitcoin. They do not believe in bitcoin due to lack of knowledge and proper guidance. It is used for investments but it is not accepted for online shopping. But the speed with which it is progressing one day each shop and site will accept payment in bitcoin

Yes I will start buying something with the use of bitcoin when is fully legalise in my country. This is because, at the moments there is no online shops or virtual shops that accept bitcoin as a mode of payment here in my country and that makes me to always convert it to dollar before I can make use of it to purchase things. I see the problem buddy. That's what makes it only a conventional form of asset as now is. I mean if you have to convert it everytime in fiat, it does not make any sense because it first was concept as digital currency as that is the way we must use it. The problem is the Governments and its control.

I've tried person to person purchase with btc already and it's a lot more convenient than other options. Though i don't think there are a lot of retailers or businesses that would transact with you this way yet You are right. As for now, there isn't such a big opportunity for us to spend it online. As Giant Ecommerce would start accept it, you'll see how much we use it For now just HODL Anyway we cannot think any governments take first step to make it legal currency 'cause they think they can only lose taxes money

You know, the gateway options for Cryptocurrencies already exist, but their poor knowledge does make they cannot integrate that option in their local e-shops. I think personally, that buying something immaterial such as games is much easier for them, because there is no good to deliver and also for anonymous thing. We'll see something big happen in the near future.. Stay tuned

Few times, I used BTC directly to pay for things Most of the time; I am using it 'indirectly' through my Debit Cryto Card (that I load with BTC or other ALT and then be able to use it as any other card)

Using at shops for years. Right now it's not feasible at current transaction fees.

Well bitcoin is supposed to be a currency but it's really not being used as such, and I don't blame people. Essentially you would have to pay a 5$ fee for a 2$ coffee, for example, which is stupid. You can't really use bitcoin right now for small purchases, it just doesn't work, there are solutions to this, of course but they take time. My prediction is that when cryptos are actually used as currency, we will not see bitcoin as the top one, there will probably be a lot of new cryptos with new technology that will take over bitcoin. BTC was designed to be used, not to be held as an asset, unfortunately we have gone past that point, it will most likely remain as an investment until it finally dies overthrown by a better coin. https://medium.com/@rusty_lightning/dear-bitcoin-im-sorry-fees-will-rise-b002b1449054

Definately. It was okish before friday though. You could pay 30-180 sat/byte and get thru in an hour or so. Hope they clear the backlog soon.

for this to develop it must be removed.

Yes its some way like when i play faucet so i need to do deposit in their site or i will exchanger bitcoin to our own money because in my country we have that kind of wallet.I think the main purpose why this bitcoin create is really for paying online and to have a bank that you can only access or open the account

This is a temporary phenomenon (I hope). Whenever there is a lot of activity, blocks tend to become full and transaction fees shoot up. Hopefully, the dust will settle down and things will go back to normal. people usually won't have a problem paying 0.1mbtc as fees.
