Make sure you back up your wallet regularly! Unlike a bank account, nobody can help you if you lose access to your BTC.

I was looking to buy a physical bitcoin once, with bitcoins ... actually, merely a worthless representation of one ... sortof as a 'desktop mascot' for my den. But then I woke up.
I'm a small-time miner. I mine bitcoins. Then I sell them to pay my bills. In a sense, that is paying for a service.

Hm, prices aren't bad actually. I was looking through Bitcoin Deals earlier and everything seemed a solid 30 to 40 percent over Amazon, which is what prompted my initial skepticism. But I guess this kind of service is easier to offer at a discount. Thanks for the site link! Yea there prices are good ... my company has similar pricing wondering if i should accept bitcoins also on my site , Also i been toying around mining with some of my spare hardware.

I used to do that. Now that the community is growing though, it's getting easier to buy stuff without having to convert.

Using Bitcoin for currency exchange - I have payments going into an account in one country and rather than paying 5% fees to a bank, am moving it in coins. Going to save me about US100 this month.

I used to have two machines mining, and they doubled as heaters during the winter, not so good now that it's summer though :/

I've used BitcoinTorrentz quite a bit to get around my college's blanket "ban" on Bittorrent no matter if I'm just downloading a Linux ISO or something, and I've also paid someone for some graphics work. Otherwise it's mostly just been playing around with darts and BlackJack and such.

To me, the biggest reason for using bitcoin is that I'm able to buy preloaded Visa debit cards which I can use to buy services anonymously. Hopefully, the market will grow and more services will become available so I don't have to resort to the debit cards anymore.

I see services selling visa giftcards so doesn't that mean it's easy to buy almost anything?
In that case why would it matter as long as a business takes credit cards...
