One of the help that I get from Bitcoin was purchasing prepaid load without hassle anywhere I am Smiley Now I can purchase prepaid load via bitcoin thru an online wallet app without hassling to go to some stores here to purchase.

I think bitcoin has helped me a lot since I first started, because I gained so many knowledge of this digital world and really got to understand of what our future holds in currency

Helped I guess...

One should NEVER EVER EVER EVER EVER put so much money into BTC that it ruins your life.. EVER. 

I've gotten decimated by the market but BTC has allowed me to donate to many things I believe in and has taught me SO much about cryptology it's crazy.

so far overall a net negative. I can't spend it or hold it really. I can't spend because nobody takes it, I can't hold it because I fear losing my coins.....

I hold more than I am comfortable holding so I have wasted time stressing always expecting that I will be one of those sorry asses that posts "how did this happen" topics about their coins disappearing.

Cost : Lots of stress, wasted time
Benefits: None

No i am not going to sell my coins though.

There is many ways to spend your bitcoins, who said no one want to take it? If you search it in the digital goods tab there are many things that you can buy that I scare enough to there because I will spend it like crazy buying all things
Cost : None
Benefits: Many benefits, the most people agree on is the efficience and the online. You can make it online just need some wifi Grin

Well it has been easier to spend the bitcoin in many stuff in life.
You can check the digital goods as you said and there are many thing there.
Also if you want to buy from amazon you can buy cheaper there that using cash.

Bitcoin has given new meaning to my life and allowed me to live my dreams.

Very true,
Bitcoin has added value to my life, I enjoy shopping more with bitcoin as compared to fiat or credit cards, Online shopping has become very easy with the existence of bitcoin. The person who doesn't have credit card can also shop online by using bitcoins, and that is the best feeling.

I love bitcoin as well but I don't know if I'm living dreams because of it Smiley.  Ask me in 10-20 years and hopefully I say it gave me all my dreams aswell.

and why no one is using all4btc, that can buy you anything everywhere with btc? or buy simple games with it via steambitshop, ecc..., there are plenty of ways to use bitcoin

Overall helped as I enjoy playing with it.  I am in it for the long term, so not selling all the time.  It's not effected be in any bad ways.

I could see how the ones that invested a lot at 1k per could have hurt them financially.  But even then I'm not sure it could have ruined their life.  You should never invest more then you can loose.

It is helping everyone I guess who holds the bitcoin even if it is least amount. I personally feel that It has added value to my earnings. As it is like part time earnings for me where I can take care of my basic stuffs keeping my salary intact. Where I can invest my part of my salary into bitcoins every month.

I pay for electricity out of my BTC.  This keeps it accountable where one day if BTC drops really low.... I didn't lose a ton of money on electricity.  I run a decent amount off miners so that could be a loss that would hurt my life.

Some miners I have paid for with Fiat.  So I could possibly lose that I guess.  But  I try to keep it long term on most of my bitcoin.

It helped me to learn about economics and trading. Before Bitcoin I would hardly pay attention to all those since news. Post Bitcoin I always pay attention since everything is connected. Everything that happens in the fiat world has a side effect in Bitcoin, therefore you better remain informed.

 same here. I never really paid heed to economics and trading and all that stuff.  But since I camee to know bitcoin , it has influenced me for better. I came to learn of so many things I would never think of. Economics is gradually becoming my favorite subject because of that.

Yeah Bitcoin can never ruin anyone's life. It have surely helped me in my life as it has become an alternative source of income for me. As I was not satisfied with the salary that I earn but Bitcoin added value to my income and I am enjoying my life with bitcoins.

It may not ruin their life of knowing bitcoin, but it def can if they got heavily invested at the wrong time.

Imagine buying at the highs of bitcoin like $1k and they put 30k.. im sure the person doesnt enjoy bitcoin as much.

What you are saying is exactly correct, the people who have bought it for the higher prices wouldn't be satisfied at present with the current prices of the bitcoins.

But who entered lately when the prices were low, they still have hope that prices will go high and they can make some profit out of it, and those who have bought for higher prices have only one option left to wait n watch n sell it when the right time comes.

I still remain neutral. My life hasn't changed much. I've made some BTC, but I wasn't there to buy at the right moment and selling at the right time.
Our only chance unless other lucky strikes are meet, is BTC going to 10+K over the course of the next 10 years, and selling some (not all) of it at ther ight time during a mega bubble, then buying back as it recovers again.
Then again, to make interest out of that money one would need to convert to fiat and pay taxes... fml.

It help my life. Bitcoin saves me from goddamn PTC sites that earns you $1 in 2 months which you are not sure if it that PTC site will last for 2 months. I used to click in 10 ptc sites back to the days when I dont know anything about bitcoin.
