I just noticed some questions about this topic so I listed some seven reasons why people want to have a cryptocurrency transaction rather than fiat.
1. INCOGNITO. this is the main reason why people use it. You cannot trace crypto transaction and its perfect from hiding.
2. CONVINIENCE. people nowadays are so lazy that they want to have transaction while seated comfortably on their home. With just one click , crypto can be transferred as payment to whatever they want. Well, who doesnt want that anyway.
3. TREND. basically, people want to try something new, something not ordinary , something innovative and if it was used by all their friends, they want to use it also.
4. ILLEGAL. yes, i dont want to include this but i saw many topics about this also. If you want to buy on black market or an illegal item, your transaction should not be traced as i said on our first reason so Crypto will help you hide on cops but not forever.
5. MODE OF PAYMENT. this is where some people buy an item usually using the profit they had on investing bitcoin even just holding. Ex. If you have 1btc and after a month it becomes 1.5 btc and you want to buy an item that cost 0.005btc and crypto is accepted as a mode of payment, you will use it ofcourse rather than fiat.
6. TECHY. it seems that techy people using cryptocurrency as a mode of payment see themselves as going with the flow of technology considering that bitcoin is the new technology of currency for the new generation.
7. SHOW OFF. whether we admit it or not, some people use cryptocurrency just to make their status up. Telling their friends about how wealthy they are and keep boasting for their ego.
This is what i noticed. So which one are you?
I believe I fall under 1 , 2, 4, 5 and 6, I want all my transactions to be anonymous and not be noticed by anyone except me and the person I am in transaction with, since this is not the case with fiat, since the government always want to tax you as well as the banks, they both want to get your money once you earn something, and then will not give you anyhting in return, since both are businesses, then it is also legal, since there nothing in any constitution that says that crypto currency is illegal, though some will point out that creating money is illegal, but if you take a look at it everything could be used as payment, not only paper notes. Lastly I chose #6, since therr is really a technical side from all of it, unlike fiat, people will take your money, if you want your money to increase in value, but in crypto, you will need to use your technology and understand how everything will work, especially the codes.
