1. mine some bitcoins.
2. buy some bitcoins.
3. get scammed
4. start at 1.

I seem to be stuck in this loop.

[mufa23]

-90lbs of weed
-37lbs of coke
-Two slaves (one died, had to get another)
-Four AKM-74s (full auto)
-plenty of extra mags
-4,000+ 7.62x39 rounds
-Saiga 12G (shitty trigger, oh well...)
-Two Glock 18s with laser, night sights, and osprey suppressors. Plenty of ammo for them as well.
-One Remington 700 with a Leopold scope and collapsible stock


...Just kidding. I was going to post that by itself, then realized I'd probably have the Partyvan outside by tomorrow. Have only bought computer parts to expand my mining. Most of the coins I mine I exchange for USD. I don't have any real need for Bitcoins right now, so I am selling them off.

[tgmarks]

I use them for everything i can. I have probably spent the most on hardware, but also bought food, candy, games, some clothing, paid for a paper to be written for school, had some graphic design work done, and a significant investment into glbse.  O... and gift cards.

Collecting them for haggling, bigger VGA for example, then they crunch more BTC for me and i buy more bigger VGA. 
Or PSU, MoBo whatever.

[yunk3r]

I am a miner and i usually buy things in the forum.

[eleuthria]

I haven't used bitcoins specifically for too many purchases, other than some time cards for MMORPGs a few months ago.  Mostly I just cash them out in mid-sized chunks to supplement my monthly bills.

[Labay]

The miners mine and hold, other mine and sell.

Investors and speculators buy, hold and sell.

You can buy random items in auctions and through the forums.

What are the reasons for the bulk of the bitcoin transfers? I read an article underlying the "dark side" of the internet and TOR network, and they seem to point out that bitcoins are now nearly the exclusive currency for the online "black market" (Note, they are not saying bitcoins are exclusively used for black market transactions)

What have you used bitcoins for?

Miner
Investor
Black Market
Other - explain

if i have a lot of btc i will find an good thing that i can invest. I ask some friends for a business that are legit to become safe and i didn't waste my btc.

Well it's better to do business related to btc or business accepting btc since it can be popular soon. But it's better also to do trading or investing if we have knowledge on both that's the fastest way to earn big now.

I use to:
Invest, trade, save bitcoin and market.

I think a lot of people are in this loop. And I am one of them

[Proton2233]

All the people living in this loop. Don't you similarly earn Fiat? I make bitcoin mining. For the profit I buy new equipment, and again extract the coins. So can proceed indefinitely. Bitcoin is an opportunity to make money out of money.

[Naughty Princess]

I use to:
Invest, trade, save bitcoin and market.

I also use to invest and trade like what you do to gain more profit from it even for a long time. I use the other amount to exchange into fiat and buy my needs. Some extra amount can be save in the wallet for future use. Bitcoin is also can use in making transactions online payment.
