I am spending my bitcoins I don't have that many and I don't think in the future 0.2 bitcoin will be worth like 10$k. I am buying PC games for majority of my BTC its good that you can buy it that way.

spending or holding?

the crazy thing is : you can do both Grin

I think doing both is both great for the promotion and bitcoin and also a safe investment. I just only wish bitcoin was worth what it was at its peak, though I'm sure it'll be back there eventually, so that why I hodl hehe.

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.

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

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

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.

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

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?

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

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.

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.
