According to NIST and ECRYPT II, the cryptographic algorithms used in Bitcoin are expected to be strong until at least 2030. (After that, it will not be too difficult to transition to different algorithms.)

...

Here are three who sell gold and other PMs for BTC (with a comment each):

goldsilverbitcoin.com (I bought a 0.25 oz Gold Eagle from here in Dec 2013; look here: http://goo.gl/pJM7UE)

amagimetals.com  (Recommended by a guy who sold me BTC)

agoracommodities.com  (NICE website, apparently offer gold from 0.1 oz to 1 kg, also hard-to-find RHODIUM)

***

Anyone who buys from anyone please let us know how your experience went!

Congratulations, I haven't bought anything with bitcoin other than miners but somehow buying miners doesn't quite have the same feeling as buying something else that is directly or indirectly related to bitcoin i think. I have this personal principle of not spending bitcoins other than on things that can net me back bitcoins, like miners, gambling sites, tradebots etc. But I would love to at least try purchasing a cup of joe as they say from a btc-accepting brick-and-mortar.

Might I recommend a small silver round as your first non-mining related purchase.
There is something about holding a piece of precious metal that makes a person feel good inside. Using your hard earned bitcoin to buy it is fulfilling.
