it is good to know that apart the regular option of just buying and keeping of bitcoin, we can use it for other things like the list you have mentioned. they all shows what the inventor of bitcoin had in mind at the time bitcoin came into being.

imagine there is no bitcoin and then you can access an important site that requires the use of BVN but you cant subscribe to it because you dint have the access of paying for the service of a bvn just because of currency difference and then bitcoin comes to bridge that gap ensuring that international transaction of all kind can successfully go on smoothly without hesitation. bitcoin is a blessing to the world and even if attention is now more focused on the profit that comes with owning it, the function it performs is making purchase of these kind still makes it an a valuable asset and more.

Good to share this type of knowledge, honestly using Bitcoin is amongst the reasons why many people hasn't still yet adopted Bitcoin and this information is throwing light on how that can be achieved.
I have not verified how secure your source is and even if it's verified I will advise everyone to still thread with caution. Holding Bitcoin means you are your own bank and using Bitcoin requires you to up your security level, you never can tell how or when you may be vulnerable so be watchful.

From the early beginning of Bitcoin what we all know was decentralization, ease of payments. It was after a few years we get to see the price of Bitcoin increased significantly that those who were able to buy it and held till 2013/2-14 people began to know that it can be an asset of true value.
.
Without serving its purpose new and old investors would know the true value of Bitcoin. In years to come people will start understanding that Bitcoin is beyond an asset for storing value but the future.

I could tell that OP did good research as it relates to this topic and the content or message it passes across to the wider community. Bitcoin could be for several purposes as it relates to executing transactions, I wish many people in the world could know this, they would have opted for the use of Bitcoin but the truth is that so many people in the world are already used to the traditional money aka fiat so they prefer using that which they are familiar with than that which they have no much knowledge about and this is the reason why it seems bitcoin is in a slow pace to adoption coupled with the government restrictions and policies hovering around bitcoin adoption in their various countries.

I believe in the near future there will be lots of changes that will usher in the usage of Bitcoin and this would cut across all divides and the economic sectors of all governments in the world by then policies that could allow for Interglobal transactions must have been enacted by an international committee to foster global trade amongst countries and governments of the world.

That's right, we can see the use of Bitcoin growing exponentially over time. Bitcoin is being paid after shopping in various shopping malls, it is not just stopped at the investment center but is being used to buy all the products of our daily use. Expect to see the use of Bitcoin in every field of the future. Bitcoin is gaining people's trust and confidence over time.

No think say as bitcoin adoption is slow, it might only appear that here in this part of the world. In advance countries, bitcoin adoption very high as you go see say many businesses dey accept bitcoin. Currently people are using bitcoins for interborder transaction. No be say until government adopt am before we go see these things dey happen. I know people wey be say if them dey send money from Yankee come home like this to their relatives, na bitcoin dem dey use as me and you dey talk my brother. The only challenge wey we dey get like this because say plenty people for this side dey use bitcoin as a store of value. Dem no dey too see am as something wey dem supposed use for payment. Watin just dey worry our people na illiteracy, that's e con be say majority of naija people never too dey use bitcoin as payment purposes. Wey con still dey make dem dey rely on banks and fiat. Me as I don dey expose like this, you think say if I dey send money or receive money from Yankee say I go use bank? Never I no fit try am.

Bitcoin na one commodity way get different values on how to make good use of am like;
1: Trading and investment where be say the users go dey get projected frame of earnings whether na so short or long time.
2: E dey usable to take buy and sell products for our daily life (markets) as other means way we fit make payments. This one dey very interesting unto say bitcoin na one currency anywhere dem dey accept am. No need to come dey change am to the region currency like if a Nigerian person travel to Abroad like USA or Europe and Dem dey accept bitcoin for payments there just like El Salvador, na to just pay once and for all not need exchanging to their traditional currency.
3:  Bitcoin dey good to store your funds as e fit preserve am for with good values and even keep an for good security order in case of casala for town.

Padi, I understand say Bitcoin Na boarderless transaction wey be say anybody fit from any part of the world send money through Bitcoin to their loved ones for payment or as gift. Although the reasons for Bitcoin transactions varies wey I go also reason with you. E good say you talk am based on exposure, you get exposure while some people still no dey exposed so how you take expect them to begin use wetin dem no sabi or get knowledge about?

All these things dey take time for people wey no sabi am to learn about am and when dem don Sabi Na that time you go see say the adoption go begin increase drastically everywhere but for now, Na gradual process wey e go take dey go round. Besides Na the one wey dem sabi use them go always go for regardless. So I believe say anything new innovation dey take time and I believe say Bitcoin go also take time too but at the end e go reach every where.

[Cryptohygenic]

You try to make some sense Op but you for make the writeup very compatible instead of that long.
But anyways, to me I go divert from your opinion small and just say how I utilize by bitcoin instead of spending because people way dey around me no dey accept bitcoin for payments or service exchange so I dey only invest and also try some trades if I fit make some passive income because trading dey hard for me, so in all, for now, na just of the interest of making profits na em I dey take utilize my bitcoin but though I also know say some other people from well advanced countries like the US, El Salvador and others dey accept am for payment options for both online and offline payment services.
