I spend bitcoins only during currency exchange , other than that I keep it stored and safe. Not an issue for me.

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?

They also have the option to hold certain % of btc with services like coinbase, at some point they will be able to purchase from suppliers etc in BTC. 

I spend little bits nothing major.

Every chance I get. I used expedia to get my hotel reservations. purchased a few items from the net. If you are worried about spending your coin and your a hodler, just use coinbase to replenish the coins you spend, it only costs you 1 percent and then you make sure that you dont go down in your holdings. I believe they have new feature that does this automatically. but itss not hard to do it manually..

if we dont use bitcoin, then merchants wont take it and that wont help bitcoin one bit.. we all need to spend it when we can. Just rebuy it if you want. or don't...

I'm not really spending much BTC. At the moment I am holding bitcoins but I would not ever rule out the chance of spending bitcoins and keeping some in storage when the time came. So far I have not felt the need to want to use bitcoin but sooner or later that time will come when more companies start accepting. I am adding more here and there. I did just spend some recently on a new Trezor, but I immediately put that amount of BTC back into one of my wallets. I would have bought it with credit card or debit card if they would have accepted it. It was actually the first time that I have actually spent BTC. I was pleasantly surprised with how easy it was.

I spend it when I need to, but I try to hodl as much as I can. It's a much better payment method than other things, but if I need to pay in fiat, I have to wait around for a few days while I have it sent to my bank account to transact in less efficient ways.

Only spending bitcoin when the merchant is offering a discount compare to credit card or check on goods and services where I would have bought anyway.

There's a proverb "A penny saved is a penny earned" so I don't want to spend it now buying stuffs! just want to hold it for future..

Every time I buy stuff from Overstock.com, I spend bitcoin. (Although I only shopped there once.)
Every time I eat at Ocean Blue Sushi, I spend bitcoin. (Although I've only eaten there twice - Sushi is very high-carb.)

Summary: I'll spend more bitcoin when more places take it.

SUSHI IS HIGH CARB?  maybe you eat too much rice.. stick with sashimi.. all fish is protein.  very healthy and delicious.  stay away from california rolls.. fake crab and rice is not sushi.

idiots wth very bad math skills.  ignoring inflation, everytime you make money with btc, someone loses it and vice versa.  same applies to buying/mining and selling with btc

So? if no one trades at all no one is losing or gaining? What are you talking about?

i was referring to all the people who claim that because merchants convert bitcoin received to fiat right away, the more merchants accepting bitcoin, the lower the price will be driven down, due to all the immediate sales of coin on transaction..  total bs.
