There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, but full nodes are more resource-heavy, and they must do a lengthy initial syncing process. As a result, lightweight clients with somewhat less security are commonly used.

I;m not currently spending bitcoin as I believe in them as a currency and think their use is only going to grow, so am saving them as an investment. I can't wait to spend them and see what I can get for my money though.

I think that's a wise idea and I'd like to do that too (though I don't have much at the minute) as I'm sure it's only a matter of time before we see quite a hefty price rise again, so holding on to coins for a while could be a good investement.

I just read this:
http://www.finance-guy.net/finblog/how-will-you-spend-your-bitcoin/10/8/2014

It raises an interesting point that if we spend Bitcoin to buy stuff, the companies will most likely sell the BTC pretty quickly.

What do you think?

Will shopping with Bitcoin be good or bad for the price of BTC?

This is a commonly held view, but it's not so simple. We can't so easily gauge off-exchange demand. I suspect processors like Bitpay and Coinbase only sell on the exchanges when it is profitable for them to do so. And I don't think that they usually dump all coins they process on exchanges -- not at all -- so I am not sure how much it depresses price.

Spend Bitcoin at every opportunity you get and replace it immediately. That helps to get it into the system and gives it more value.

Spending bitcoins for altcoins, they may be the biggest BTC merchants.

I hope that in a few years a half of all e-merchants would make a possibility to pay with BTC

That's what we are all hoping for but it's very likely to happen for most companies since Dell have opened their doors they have been making a great profit I think other companies need to jump on it and accept Bitcoin.

I haven't spent any of my coins yet, but I'm itching to. I just can't bring myself to spend any at the moment when the coins were worth double what they are at the moment.

I sure hope you're right. The benefits to them as merchants are many compared to credit cards and paypal etc.

I've spent a little amount. I gambled a little, topped up my phone and bought a few takeaways, but I'm more inclined to join the hoddlers now and see where bitcoin goes.
