Bitcoin is a decentralized network which provides the user with censorship-proof value transfer and seize-proof store of value.

This is what gives Bitcoin it's value.

Not the imagined capability of providing micro transactions for the unbanked living in the undeveloped parts of Africa.

Scaling will be solved very, very soon. Regardless of the high fees at the moment, Bitcoin has a useful store of value. This is of a profound significance in places such as Venezuela where economic uncertainty may mean starving or living to these people who are choosing to adopt Bitcoin right now.

May be you have not come across the best things which bitcoin can provide. There are lots of project which are being undertaken to use bitcoin directly from the blockchain to USD. They provide bitcoin debut cards to be used directly at the shopping center or any services which supports debit and credit cards. There you can find answer to your questions. Moreover lots of option to buy house and even properties with bitcoin. You can go and ask people to exchange bitcoins for other goods and services as there are many more people using bitcoin as currency.

Have you heard of debit cards in which you load to buy something using your useless coins? They exist. Thing is, you'll need to use your coins to load up something to buy instead of using them directly. Bitcoins is not the shit. It's just that merchants aren't ready to take the risks yet due to the price fluctuations. Not even thinking of integrating bitpay so no bitcoin purchases.
Yes I agree it is not like the bitcoin is useless but the truth is that currently no one is ready to accept it because of its price fluctuation. Which doesn’t really mean that the bitcoin is going towards the devastation, but it will take the merchants to accept it as a payment. There are many alts which are offering the debit cards through which you can purchase and one I know which is not even on the exchange now. This will help people to accept the bitcoin as a mode of payment for purchases as well.


So far the function of bitcoin as a means of online payment transactions and maybe in some countries that have adopted bitcoin, is definitely available and has facilities transactions bitcoin via offline.

What use is Bitcoin if in 9 years you cant even buy groceries with this shit

You cant build a business on bitcoin because of the volatility and even if you try to runa business on bitcoin you have to wait forever for a transaction to be sent

whats the point of bitcoin, if you cant do anything with this shit?
Painting the outlook of bitcoin in 9years time by the OP will discourage newbies,  your speculation is totally wrong, people who had the same mind view about bitcoin like the OP few years back  are now regretting while those that worked hard are now millionaires thanks to bitcoin.

I know that you can't buy groceries with bitcoin directly but there are some way that you can do, using bitcoin debit card for example or convert your bitcoin to the cash, simple as that.

For now, seems like bitcoin transaction is annoying but the community are trying to fix it. If you're in a hurry then use alternative, that's why they created.

There are so many advantage of the bitcoin, but only one thing that i'd like to say bitcoin has changed our lives.

Aren't exchanges, gambling sites, services accepting bitcoin, bitcoin atm are all good example of businesses? You can't buy groceries  for now but maybe in the future it can happen. Bitcoin is continuously developed. Those limitations will be bridged someday.

True Bitcoin enthusiast or bitcoin believer would not say like yours. I think your not supposed to be here in this forum,

How much bitcoin do you have? How come you mindset is like that where the fact is you can convert your bitcoin into cash. If you are thinking of buying groceries through bitcoin directly, maybe you wont be able to do that. It's a matter of how you handle it. I am earning bitcoin and because of it I was able to buy small stuffs.

If you really have nothing to say about bitcoin, do not use it.

I don't need to buy groceries, but I might need a fast and cheap way to move my money out of the country Wink How about that, OP?
Bitcoin is for many a safe store of value, one that is easier to carry around than gold, jewelry, paintings, or cash.

Perhaps we should kill and destroy Bitcoin in order for it to rise from the dead stronger than before? Gotham must fall so Batman could rise

To save it, wait ..... .... ... . . what? if you want your enemy to become your friend, first create a problem for him and then provide a solution.

I will not continue any further.
Never a good idea to reference fiction as a source of inspiration for fixing events within reality. Despite what you may hear people say when they compare politics to fictional stories that they read or watched at some point.

No need to kill anything since life will be carrying on as normal until the community gets the blocks and fees to change from where they are. If that never happens, there are a lot of issues that will make themselves prevalent, such as a declining userbase, and that will have financial impacts for those making the decisions right now.

First,Bitcoin is not created to buy groceries.Bitcoin is volatile since it is not controlled by any central authority and it exactly reflects the price in accordance with the increase and decrease in demand for bitcoin.Its the wonderful technology which has made possible for even a normal person to transact without involving banks.At last,if you really don't like bitcoin,you better leave this forum forever.

Don't rant here just because you can't buy groceries with bitcoin. Have you ever tried to buy groceries with all of those alt coins in the market? That's why there are exchange websites that is providing service USD/BTC. And there are some local exchanges that allows you to convert your bitcoins to local money so that you can buy your groceries.

If after 9 years you still don't know what bitcoins are for, you're doing it wrong. Enough said.

Could you please explain then? I personally am curious as to what makes BTC so attractive outside of investment opportunities. If you think it actually makes you harder to track than other forms of tender you're mistaken. Cash is pretty anonymous, BTC leaves a trail no matter how hard you try to fight it. Can that trail be obfuscated? Yea sure, but a motivated-enough adversary could absolutely figure out who you are. IMO the only use of BTC is as an investment which is a shame because its a cool idea.

Bitcoin still on development, I'm sure one day all country will accept bitcoin so you can pay your parking ticket with bitcoin.
Yes, they are investment as far as I know so in order to turn into currency ( 100% ) it need process
I agree with you there Bitcoin is still on development stage and one day all the countries adopt and accept the bitcoin in any local shops for direct shopping and we can easy pay our daily expenditure with Bitcoin and I hope one day we will be use our bitcoin is our regular currency for direct translation because a lot of people in the favour of Bitcoin.

Well, if you don't like bitcoin just hand over yours to me, I'm willing to accept it Cheesy.
The fact is you can buy some goods and daily needs depends on the country that you live. But still there are limited options to spend bitcoin directly, so that mostly people convert their bitcoin into fiat currency if they need money. The problem is to wait for days to get a confirmed transaction, that is a main problem right now. What we can do about it? just deal with it and wait until this problem be solved.
