Not all want to spend their crypro when market is down and I am also sure that many people would also be happy enough to buy all the crypto that you spend when the market is down.
You are right most people prefer to buy more coins during the bearish market. They mostly spend coins or sell coins in the bullish market. But I think spending a small number of crypto coins is okay, it isn't a big matter. We should be proud to support crypto adoption as a payment tool for online stores. We don't only think about our investment, we also need to think how our contribution to support the development of crypto coins. Since we expect crypto can be digital currencies that we can use globally, it should be not a problem to spend our crypto coins in online or offline stores.
Indeed, ideally we buy as much crypto as possible during a bear market and sell it during a bull market. But sometimes everyone's economic
situation is different, sometimes when the bear market I have an urgent need and I am forced to sell the crypto I have, because my fiat savings
run out. Unexpected things like that are bound to happen to some people, so it's fine in my opinion spending crypto on something important.
Regarding your suggestion to use crypto for payments it may only be possible in countries where it is legal for crypto to be used for payments.
Meanwhile, based on my knowledge, most countries only legalize crypto as a digital asset. So if we want to spend crypto, we have to exchange
crypto for fiat on exchanges. But I believe in the future when crypto is very popular and used by the majority of people in the world, slowly
many countries will legalize crypto entirely. So we can spend crypto to buy something or pay bills without having to fear breaking the law.
