There are many countries in the world where Bitcoin is legal and various businesses are buying and selling goods with Bitcoin.

Don't know which country you live in. However, if bitcoin is legal in your country then you can easily buy and sell goods using bitcoin. If bitcoin is banned or illegal in your country then I would say obey your country and country laws. Then you wait for Bitcoin to be validated in your country.

No no I don't buy anything goods or services using cryptocurrency online virtual currency because my country don't directly permit bitcoin as trading system.
Lots of people still use Bitcoin to buy Goods and Services even if their countries don't permit to use of Bitcoin. the thing is even if govt don't allow that, it is technically impossible to stop anyone from using Bitcoin in online sources.
yes, you can't use that in real life. but there are still countless ways of spending Bitcoin online. you can even buy physical products with Bitcoin. like Mobile phones, laptops, hardware wallets, collectibles, and much more.
and no one will ask you how you paid for them. unless it's a noticeable thing.

Correction: In no country can you legally buy goods and services except with the national (local) currency. With the exception of those few countries, like El Salvador, that are trying to give bitcoin legal status.
They are not trying, Bitcoin is already a legal tender in El Salvador.  Wink
The Central African Republic also have Bitcoin as a legal tender, so you can use it as legal currency, and I saw several websites in EU, United States and Japan that openly accept Bitcoin payments.
In Turkey you can legally find small Bitcoin exchanges everywhere, you can even purchase stuff with BTC, and in Slovenia you can pay almost anything with Bitcoin and other crypto.

Yeah it is true that in so many countries it is still legally not possible to buy real life products and services using crypto.

but I heard many people doing that under the table.
No need to do this under the table. Ordinary P2P trade directly between people. No one except the two participants in the transaction will know what was purchased and for what amount.

there are communities in such countries and small wonders who accept bitcoin for their services.
besides that you can buy online services and digital products with your bitcoin. 
If only sellers (more) were ready to accept bitcoin as a means of payment, there would be no problems with the purchase.

it is funny that crypto is not legal in those countries
Bitcoin doesn't need to be "legal" for people to use it.

Bitcoin doesn't have legal status in almost all countries, but at the same time it is not prohibited almost anywhere.

but still those countries have huge number of crypto users. that proves that no one can control crypto. govt, banks. none.
This is the whole miraculous power of decentralization.

I have been associated with crypto currency for a long time and some people around me are also aware of crypto currency but I have not seen any such real crypto service in our country because cryptocurrency is not legal in my country. In other countries transactions are done through crypto currency, various products are bought and sold through crypto currency. In my country, I don't get the opportunity to buy and sell any product through this currency.

In this present world, there are many things that will soon happen and part of those things are the acceptance of cr- ypto as a major means of payment. Though some govern- ments are placing a ban on crypto acivi in there countries. Asking the banks in such country to close any account related to crypto. This is a major set back, but with time I know things will get better. I see a world of free and transparent means of transacting. A world where fraud will be impossible. And I believe crypto can make that happen. It's  only a matter of time, the world will know the importance of this Digital currency. Very soon it will happen. And everybody will see it.

Op I clicked on the link you provided and I registered to see if their service is good and when I have finished the registration, I checked the interface and the exchange platform is not really encouraging to use. I don't know if the it is because of the first time which I don't know where to find the appropriate links. At first I was looking for my country currency so I can compare Bitcoin price to my fiat BTC/NGN but I couldn't.

The first stage of p2p then the last stage of Bitcoin government approve. Once government adopt Bitcoin then p2p will be strengthen. Now the peer to peer is not working very effectively because government is still restricting in their countries. And when government adopt Bitcoin and make it as a legal tender then Bitcoin will be the key investment of the country. And at that time we can use it to buy things of our choice.

If the emphasis is on the bear market and if you happended to acquire your asset when it was the bullrun era, chances are, you are in a negative position.

From the above mentioned, I will not advice you to buy anything rather than holding for a return of the bullrun, except if you feel like using it and the narrative above isn't applicable.

Currently, we are perceived to be in a bullrun, I can say for a sure that your assets have appreciated a little. You can use it for purchase if you so wish since it has gained some profit (possibly) and if it hasn't been used already.

Ultimately, the future of cryptocurrencies and their widespread adoption will depend on many factors, including government policies, technological advances, and public acceptance. Today you can make money on cryptocurrency in different ways. One of the areas is crypto exchangers. Many people use the services of crypto exchangers. I chose https://exolix.com/ for myself. Crypto exchanges are the easiest and most reliable way to buy cryptocurrency.
Maybe the OP mentioned here what things you want to buy with crypto currency or what things you have bought with crypto currency so far. Exchange is virtual here you can only buy virtual coins and sell virtual coins but you can never buy a car or a house or anything else through this exchange. Here we talk about buying and selling real things through Bitcoin or other currencies. Many people here commented that he will buy car with crypto currency and some mentioned that he will buy house with crypto currency everyone has a dream to buy house or other things with bitcoin. Hope you also have dreams of buying some real things with crypto currency.

Bitcoin Halving Year 🎗️🎭
October 22, 2023, 09:05:55 AM

The power of buying goods and buying things for cryptocurrency will not be established still now because we are not a trustable person of cryptocurrency this will leads to the changes but in future if the government accept Bitcoin then we can definitely buy and sell goods for bitcoin.
At one time not all products could be purchased with cryptocurrency, but the popularity of Bitcoin over the past few years has led to transactions and payments being made using Bitcoin in most countries around the world. Cryptocurrency is a trusted institution that most people trust to invest in. At one time, many countries of the world did not approve of Bitcoin, but now developing countries of the world have accepted Bitcoin and made it possible to buy various products with Bitcoin. and this cryptocurrency is now so popular with people who are using it as their future asset and trying to hold it for a long time. Bitcoin will become more popular in the future and will continue to grow as the number of people in the world using Bitcoin will double in the future.

Unfortunately, the government in my country still prohibits the use of Bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies for buying/selling transactions (payments), even these rules have all been stipulated in law. but here we are still free to trade or invest in bitcoin, our government has not banned it, in the next few decades, I don't know if our government will change its mind and make bitcoin one of the legal tenders, I can't wait to use the asset I have crypto to carry out transactions whatever my needs.

Same situation in my country as yours my country government has banned Bitcoin legally. Payment transaction by bitcoin investment and all cryptos are prohibited, that's why people in my country steal bitcoin transactions. Basically we know that our country will improve if the government recognizes Bitcoin but the government sees it as a negative and therefore bans Bitcoin. Since the government has banned bitcoin in my country but we are not stopping but using bitcoin investing trading and doing transactions freely. Of course, if the government in my country thinks about the positive aspects of Bitcoin, then surely we can legalize Bitcoin transactions in the next few years. Governments in various countries around the world have recognized Bitcoin due to which people are making good profits from it by investing and countries are developing economically. But we are hopeful that the government of my country may recognize Bitcoin as legal tender in the future and then we will be able to trade Bitcoin freely.

I don't believe the challenge we're currently encountering is boardered on trust. It has more to do with global adoption than trust. You see, we understand how crypto works because we gave it attention when it came across our paths and we have resources to guide us through meticulously, not everyone enjoys that privilege.

The local retailer doesn't understand what and how crypto is used, that doesn't mean that she hasn't heard about it but her sufficiency of information as concerning it is still at infancy levels and she can't transact until she is confident enough through sufficient knowledge about its operations. She has to commit her financial life to something she properly understands as its business, profit and looses exists.

It is not only your government but most of the governments of different countries do not allow Bitcoin to be used for buying and selling goods. They prohibited the usage of Bitcoin as a medium of exchange because they do not want that people stop using the fiat currency and start using this Bitcoin and other digital cryptocurrencies.

The government want to have the control over the economic and financial sector of the countries and therefore they do not allow a decentralized currency such as Bitcoin to prevail among the masses.

as we've been in a state of bear-trend for almost a year, i'm trying to find another usage of my eth and btc except hodling. do you know any real working crypto-marketplaces? probably it's not a bad option and i would find something really worthful to buy without any doubts of being scammed. kindly waiting for your feedback

It’s advisable that you keep holding your asset, the bull market will be here soon and you will get to enjoy all you’ve labour for. Though you decide to do flexible savings on exchange like Bitget and get annual profit even while you wait for the bull market.

BTC and ETH were at market highs when we were in a bull market. But in the past two years, the market of various coins including Bitcoin has turned into a bear market. But we think it would be better and better to invest from this situation and wait till ATH. Because when the Bitcoin market will be halving, then the crypto markets will start to grow and once again different coins including Bitcoin will go to good level. If you are looking for good coins to invest in crypto then of course I would suggest BTC, besides there is ETH which is good for investment. If you want to invest in high market cap coins like BTC, BNB, ETH, you will get good profit from it in the future.

Nowadays, most merchants accept bitcoin as a payment option in their businesses. But if Bitcoin holders don't think it's practical to use it as an online payment, especially if you're a long-term holder, of course you'll think about its value when it comes next year, possibly high for sure.

Maybe, even Ethereum seems difficult to use as a mode of payment in online business or traditional. Because these cryptos are really good and have the potential to hold in the long-term.
I don’t know where these merchants are that I am never getting hodl of them. Maybe it’s my country but, am still yet to met a merchant that would accept bitcoin for exchange of his or her much needed services or products. On the forum perhaps but that’s at some risk and a question of reputation but, for some physical representation of the process to exchange of goods and services, I’m yet to future even though am willing for record’s sake at the very least.

I agree with you that, if bitcoin hodlers or investors aren’t willing to transact with bitcoin as a based currency just yet, the whole idea is thwarted. This will continue to be the case in the phase of gradual acceptance and the volatile nature of the currency. You can’t blame anyone on that, it’s still gaining some expansion and users are out for gains.

You can buy from many places using cryptocurrency but in different countries that do not allow the use of cryptocurrency you cannot use it like in my country No. In my opinion you should not buy anything using this currency now, wait until mid 2024, and you will get something better. My little Speaking from the idea.For example, companies like Amazon allow you to purchase everything using cryptocurrency.Finally, I can say that cryptocurrency has not gained credibility with the governments of all countries It is not possible to purchase from so take action according to the situation you can use it alternative way.There are many places in the forum market where you can do a lot of things and use it as Altcoins.
There are still many countries that do not accept crypto payments because the government is afraid that people prefer crypto over the currency they manage and this is contrary to various regulations that have been made regarding currencies that are suitable for use in a country, as is the case in my country. may not use any other currency in any form and from anywhere other than the Rupiah which is legally contained in my country's constitution.
There are several countries that already accept crypto payments, one of which is El Salvador.
But for international transactions, in my opinion it is possible and there are no regulations governing this, this depends on mutual agreement between the seller and the buyer, like I hired a designer from a country, by agreement he accepted payment using crypto for transactions, as well as other items that There are multi-international stores that support payments using crypto.
Within the scope of my country, I can actually do it P2P, but it is quite dangerous because it is against applicable law.
