I do actively spend my Bitcoin, I even made some purchases earlier today with some of my funds I had.

If I had more Bitcoin I'd probably be more actively spending it, but I don't, so I just have to roll with what I have an remain frugal with my purchases.

The last couple of weeks i've spent a lot. Not only on black friday/cybermonday but also buying stuff for myself just because I can.

For christmas my bitcoin spending was limited to 2 purchases. Problem is that the shipping time is a 'uncertain factor'

Nearly One month I didn't Utilzed through bitcoin. I am saving all my bitcoins. Because price increasing very fast I am expecting this will reach to 500 and more USD. I will exchange or spend on that time for purchase. Now I am fiat currency for the purchase
Do you have any price threshold for bitcoin that if price increases from that price then you spend money, for example 500$ or so?

I have a threshold once the value of Bitcoin crosses $500 mark I will spend it or exchange it for currency just to be on a safer side rather than selling it when the value slips down.
It is difficult to judge, if it goes to 500$ so it is possible that it increases to prices more than 500$ too and you may change your mind about selling it in that price

At the moment there is nothing i want that can be paid for in bitcoin so no i dont use it to buy anything. i do hope that will change soon enough and then i can and will actually be able to buy things i need with bitcoin. so my vote is no i dont actively spend only trade.

Mostly I'm hold bitcoin as investment. As we can see , bitcoin's value still lower than earlier year.
Once bitcoin has reach my goal value, I try to sold them a bit and keep the rest.

One day bitcoin will reach another $1000 bubble  Cheesy

I can't spend it daily where I live, what I mean in real life, because they are not that much store who accept bitcoin.
In the holidays I will just spend there maybe I can buy some thing good.

I spend some every now and then if I see something that's for sale on the internet. But never bought anything in real life though.
It's just not possible yet. So for now I am not actively spending my bitcoins just yet.

I do the exact same thing. It's merely the merchants holding us back from spending bitcoin as much as possible. Not many people know about it, I really want this to change.

I don't spend that much with my bitcoin, I know the price is going up.
I know that in 2016 the price will increase even more so I will just trade in there so that  I can make profit.
And not just spending it, is nice maybe 2 times a month to spend, but not daily.

Spend bitcoin when they are some discounts.
But I don't have that much so I don't spend it.

No for now I am just spending my fiat money to other things.
Bitcoin for me is just to hold and wait for the future.

The last couple of weeks i've spent a lot. Not only on black friday/cybermonday but also buying stuff for myself just because I can.

For christmas my bitcoin spending was limited to 2 purchases. Problem is that the shipping time is a 'uncertain factor'

Nearly One month I didn't Utilzed through bitcoin. I am saving all my bitcoins. Because price increasing very fast I am expecting this will reach to 500 and more USD. I will exchange or spend on that time for purchase. Now I am fiat currency for the purchase
Do you have any price threshold for bitcoin that if price increases from that price then you spend money, for example 500$ or so?

I have a threshold once the value of Bitcoin crosses $500 mark I will spend it or exchange it for currency just to be on a safer side rather than selling it when the value slips down.

this is what everyone think now because it seems that 500 is hard to broke, but if we will break it and then go ahead and reach some other good value like 600-700

you will surely change your mind about your threshold

If it goes to 500 dollar just sell some of your bitcoin not all. Just have 1 bitcoin for 2016 I think you will make profit in there.
Than now, for now is the price is increasing, but is not that high as in 2013.
So yeah just wait or sell it, if I was you wait in 2016.
