Yes why not, we have to support a store like this that accepts cryptocurrency, cryptocurrency is intended to be used as a peer to peer or an online payment processor, by supporting them, it will attract more online store to use cryptocurrency, it's like a domino effect.
We really have to support them or else they will cancelled that. Cryptocurrency is not meant for holding, it should be used for this kind of transaction and hopefully for this to happen. Amazon and eBay is the top companies, it can bring huge greend candles in the market if ever.

Yes of course, because it will add a positive side of Bitcoin. And on one side this is very beneficial to the bitcoin holder.

First, they better have a good customer service so that many people will be willing to try it. It does not have to be very huge like Amazon but they should be able to last whenever there are dumps because of volatility. If they have all those standards then I will be one of their loyal customer that use btc to use buy their products.

of course I would use it , without a doubt
I'm a staunch supporter of bitcoin and cryptocurrencies in general , so the more stores that allow direct purchases with btc the better
I would not buy just because it accepts btc if it doesn't have competitive prices or offer no goods I'm interested in , though
as for treating crypto as an asset , yes it is an asset to me currently simply because there is no infrastructure ready to use it as money at the moment
maybe soon , when there are more stores like you've described appear and there is more competition and the adoption is huge - this is the goal in mind
Different peoples have different mindsets. Cryptocurrencies are not actually that bad option to spend for shopping but originally cryptocurrencies were not been established as a mean of payment on online shopping sites but it was been developed for the community to earn great profits into.

There are a number of opportunities including mining, trading, gambling, etc which gives us the chance to multiply or coins or simply we can HODL those coins until the ATH price is reached. Considering all these benefits, there hardly might be the need to develop a marketplace where only cryptocurrnecies would be used as a mean of payment.

If it was my decision to make, I definitely would buy everything with crypto!
If it was possible to use a store like amazon or ebay using only BTC I would use it and I think this would help a lot regarding general adoption as it would make a lot of people aware...
Fiat only exists until digital takes over

There are some of store like amazon accept bitcoin but i do not really know their reputation whether bad or good so i think all of it depend on how good their reputation but rather than if then why not just hoping Amazon and ebay really accept bitcoin as part of their service and i'm sure most of use are willing to use them

It usually depends on what stuff you want to get, usually only big deals are purchased with btc / crypto so it's not really easy to get smth ordinal with crypto

To spend or to hoard? The age-old question. Smiley

I have some bitcoin-denominated income and some unspent profits from altcoin trading, so I don't mind spending some bitcoins here and there. But first and foremost, I'm a hoarder. As a general rule, if I don't think I'll be able to get the coins back, I don't spend them in the first place.

Due to Bitcoin's scarcity, the writing is on the wall regarding how valuable they'll be in the future. I'm trying to hold onto as much as I can.

We already have two. takealot and bidorbuy both accept bitcoin and both are massive markets. I live in a third world country so what is your countries excuse? You act like such htings don't exist lol. I have been buying things with bitcoin for years now.

Right now I would not use it if BTC (or cryptos) would be the only payment method but if you ask me again in a couple years my answer will probably change

Right now, none of them (amazon and ebay) accepts bitcoin as a payment. I have been hearing that Amazon might be accepting crypto currencies soon through the Lightning Network. Lets just wait and see.
I would use stores that accept crypto currencies. I do buy amazon gift cards with crypto currencies, so I am actually indirectly using crypto on stores like amazon  Wink.

I would love to use these stores to pay for goods.  I do not see anything wrong or criminal.  It seems to me that over time all the stores, especially on the Internet, will have such a function.

I would definitely be interested in selling goods for cryptocurrency, but one problem is that bitcoin transactions are not reversible, when we know people like refunds in commerce. There are certain sticking points that I am confident will be resolved in time.

Once I reach the desired amount of bitcoin in my account, I will definitely buy something for it. So far, I'm using his investment vehicle. I want to accumulate a certain amount of coins.

Well since i have my own Bitcoins in my wallet and if it was indeed possible to just use Bitcoins for those specific stores then why wouldn't we?
If you liked to buy some product from that specific store and the only you was Bitcoin of course i would use it Wink

Hmm, weird, I also on the beginning of my career wanted to accumulate and set a goal. But when I was able to reach my goal, I don't want to stop and I wanted to accumulate more.  Grin.

So I think when you reach your desired amount, you don't want to stop and will continue to do so, just saying.

Of course, we wanted to see some stores accept bitcoin as mode of payment, but sadly as bitcoin is very volatile, fluctuating price will be the main concern of merchants for now.

yes, I will definitely use it. because it's much easier and safer, than using credit cards or paypal. using crypto is good, but it is very risky due to high fluctuations. so if this becomes a reality, I have to be careful and choose the right time, if I want to use it later.

I'm sure many people will use it. even people who don't understand crypto will start using it. because I think crypto is safe and easy to use. and I personally might be one who uses bitcoin to payment online shop.

at the moment I might see it only as an investment asset. but if there really is a shop that accepts crypto payments, I will definitely use it. if there is indeed a store like this in the future, surely mass adoption has occurred. and crypto is fully legal throughout the world. I'm really looking forward to this, I heard the rumor that eBay will be the first. hope it's true.
