Hi since many people here are new to Bitcoin, I think it would be interesting to know about what people plan to do in the Bitcoin world. Some questions I think might be interesting to know: - How long have you owned bitcoins?
About a week for me. - How much have you been spending your bitcoins?
I payed for a vpn the day i got my first coins , nothing since. - Are you saving bitcoins in the hope they go up?
Yes I plan to put in about $7000 and hold it. - Do you currently, or plan to, start bitcoin related businesses or accept them in your existing businesses in the near future?
Yes, but nothing concrete yet, thinking about what I could do. - What industry/background are you from?
Engineering/Development

I've taking the profits off my website, and buying giftcards for my girlfriend.... It was nice to be able to do, especially after she said she didn't understand this bitcoin thing, and I should stop spending so much time with my website.. My website is in my signature if your curious...

How long have you owned bitcoins? Couple of weeks.
How much and for what have you been using bitcoins in transactions/payments? Holding at the moment, not really using them for much at the moment.
Are you saving bitcoins in the hope they go up? Yes, in the *hopes* the market for it seems shoddy, up and down like a yo-yo.
Do you currently, or plan to, start bitcoin related businesses or accept them in your existing businesses in the near future? I was hoping to start a new business soon for web-hosting, already had success with an old business and sold it, so hoping to create something a little yet more spectacular.
What industry/background are you from? IT Specialist.

I've had some bitcoins since 2010. I don't transact often outside of occasion mid-term trading. Although, during times like the past few days, I do a bit of day trading, too. I play bitcoin poker on Seals with Clubs. Indeed, I am saving coins for the future. I don't plan to sell most of my coins until several years from now.

Possibly, but I believe for bitcoin too truly take off, people have to use it to pay for stuff.

Possibly, but I believe for bitcoin too truly take off people have to use to pay for suff and services. naw, not if it is mainly a store of value like gold. people don't generally use gold / PMs to pay for things like they to with currency.

I purchased my first 0.5 BTC a little over a day ago.
Because I technically don't possess them yet (the transaction will hopefully clear come Monday), I haven't spent any yet. That, and I want to purchase and have a decent amount of BTC simply to hold before I spend a whole lot.
I'm neither a business owner nor a provider of a paid service, but if I were ever to be in that position I would certainly consider accepting Bitcoin.
I have a background in software engineering (go figure!).
EDIT: Apparently my coins are coming through from Coinbase on Monday, as in November 18th. This isn't exactly a quick process, is it?

Check out Localbitcoins.com to trade cash for btc locally. Much faster and usually the price is pretty comparable depending on where you live.
