I spend my bitcoin when I need something to buy for myself or I need to pay my bills.
As a student, it is really important for me to have an income to sustain my studies.
When I already finish my studies then it is time for me to collect a bitcoin.

Actually I spend my btc only in gambling and telephone charge. Until to 2 months ago, I spent my btc also for an holiday of 3 days with my girlfriend, that was fantastic ! Smiley

At the end, Bitcoin is like every value, why don't spend? Cheesy

I've never spent a single satoshi (except to buy some altcoins of course). I know that it is bad and that it don't promote nor help Bitcoin at all, but I know that the price will rise a lot in a few years, so I don't want to repeat the 10 000BTC pizza.

Sure, whenever convenient, but not "out of principle" anymore (did that in the beginning, I guess).

Which means, paying for something online whenever I would otherwise have to get my CC, or even better, in case there's a rebate for using BTC (a large food delivery service here charges a small fee for all payment methods other than cash or BTC Cheesy)

With the friday bitcoin thing I might, if I see a really good deal, otherwise no, it's like spending money with gold, I don't really need to use BTC when I can use filthy cash. If I got paid in BTC tho, I would be more inclined to use it to buy things, because I dont have to convert.

for the few places that do accept bitcoin, do you currently spend the coins you hold at any of them?

I know places like www.takeaway.com accept bitcoin and i even heard CEX.co.uk accept bitcoin in stores now too, but does anyone spend the bitcoins they have or do most just onto hold them? (Or gamble them lol)

I wonder if there will ever be any retailers that only accept bitcoin.

well i use bitcoin to pay my electricity my water my internet, almost of my house bill i use my
bit coin to pay them. but sometimes i convert my bitcoin to cash to buy raw and orgnic food.

I spend them as soon as I get them. I never have enough available at one time, so to answer the question, yes I do actively spend them. But I try and spend them on profitable things that will make money and not decrease what I still have, small amount that it is. It is always a battle to keep my regular balance on the positive side.

I only spend if I see an investment opportunity to get more of them juicy math problems. I've gambled some of them, but I'm in profit with that as well. I hope to see that trend continue in the coming years. However spending my bitcoins on worthless junk that I could buy with fiat. Not my thing, just because I could just buy that stuff with fiat.

Yes. I spend them in an instant.
I don't have enough money that's why there is no choice.

If my investment in IOTA will work out, probably yes, but at the moment I just have too less of them. I'm even thinking of converting FIAT to Bitcoin to have more.

I don't spend them instead keep and hold them long term. We never know what fortune it may bring in the future.

I just started a YouTube channel trying to make Bitcoin based on voluntary donations.
So I am hoping on day I can pay my bills and buy groceries with them.

For now I am just going to keep making my videos...
But I am ready to start using Bitcoin and leave Fiat ASAP
as I hope Bitcoin can help bring down big government and the military industrial complex

Until then
/Stay vigilant friends

Actively as in day to day basis?

I don't really, I like to save it up for investments that I most likely will be making in the future

I like to watch it all grow

i spend bitcoins around twice a month as i am more in a saving mode right now. but what exactly do you consider "actively spending"? each day a few times or just a few times per week.

Maybe not necessarily daily, but i mean like every so often, like for me its feeling like once or twice every 2 weeks maybe.

I still think saving them is important, but im part of the spending team so hopefully a few more merchants are encouraged to accept it.

Im actually quite surprised at how even the opinions have been throughout this topic (and reflected in the poll) i think this is good.
