I had to, I could survive off of bitcoin alone forever.

I would simply trade my coin for gift cards from walmart or target for food.
Trade it for visa gift cards to pay bills.

1. How long could you survice?
2.How long do you think it will take bitcoin to go "mainstream"

I included my top 5 places to buy here.

I don't thinks so

you can defintely figure it out with bitcoin

but until places start accepting BTC you'll have to exchange it for USD or whatever currency of your choice

it will take a while until people start using it daily, and mass adoption might never happen, but we are definitely in a good and the right way towards that - what an exciting time to be alive

No. You should encash bitcoin for you to be able to survive because there are limited stores that accept bitcoins or no stores at all.

No, I don't think I can survive with bitcoin alone. I see bitcoin as an investment like stocks, need to convert them to fiat then diversify to other channels.

It's possible in Arnhem, Netherlands.
The biggest bitcoin commerce city.

You can rent studio, pay gas and get groceries.

No, because you'll need to convert your BTC to real money.
why because most of the stores, malls are not yet accepting BTC payment.
They need some time to accept that btc.

You can survive . Just sell bitcoins that you had and convert them into fiat.
Just this way one can buy all the stuffs that he wanna buy
In the future bitcoins are going to be accept in the shops and malls as a mode of payment.

I do not think it is possible yet, at least for me. Things like healthcare are too expensive and unpredictable. The value of bitcoin is still fluctuating too much fpr me to entirely rely on it as a primary asset or income.

I agree, bitcoin value still unstable,so we still cannot rely in bitcoin right now, I think if this happens immediately some people will not survive, bitcoin needs to transact online and not all the time we have it whenever we go. Especially those who can't afford to. It is hard to rely in bitcoin right now. I don't think its a good idea.

I think it can. As long as there is desire, spirit and dream to move forward. May be now not yet, but I'm sure someday I can definitely survive in bitcoin.

No you cannot live with bitcoin only you'll need a machine that can cashout your money.

Well that depends on your definition of alone forever. If alone means without no fiat currency, I doubt. There are still somethings you mat not be able to purchase with bitcoin. I don't know what happens tomorrow though. If by survival, i.e you have tangible amount of bitcoin in your wallet, then you decide not to do any work and just enjoy your bitcoin forever! Then you may need to rethink.

Why not? We can really survive in bitcoin alone, because we can convert btc in fiat and we can use it as a hard cash so we can really survive with bitcoin alone. For me as of today, if I focus earning in bitcoin it is really has a good amount especially today because it is really increases its value and if I focus earning it, it is better than my decent job today.
