i use as both of them because beside i use it to buy something ( on site that sell game cash ) i saving a little amount of my money and wait for bitcoin price rising

that's like im doing with my bitcoin.
i hope in next month i can have paper wallet and start keeping some bitcoin for investment

Having a Paper wallet is best strategy for me too.. Paper wallet is most secured and safest way to store bitcoin. and you can redeem from there any time you want to invest your bitcoin..

but what if you don't have a printer? what would you do then?

i am having thir trouble, i don't have a printer and i can't just go out and ask a print shop to do the most delicate print of my life

I use it as investment and as loading station as for me I don't need to text my friends for reload and then pay later or go outside to purchase load. I would only use coins.ph to reload my sim for internet more of savings because than paying for my load it will only deduct on my bitcoin. So convenient and safer.

You already used both in your bitcoin base on your statement that is what i do in my bitcoin sometimes i use it to pay my bills and shop online but i have portion of bitcoin that i can keep as my investment to have income while i am spending some of my bitcoin.

I also use both. but I prefer to investment, because I worked to grow bitcoin, because as currency is still limited.

Both of as currency and as investment is really profitable. I'd like to treat both of that. Especially invest bitcoin will so profitable, beside the price commonly increase, it is so good to trading with bitcoin.

Actually bitcoin if not to acquire, and produce, it is possible to simultaneously invest some coins, and the other part has to translate into real currency to use for their needs.

The instant processing of bitcoin without requiring a lot of procedural it's the main reason for me to fall into bitcoin, but I think we can't say using bitcoin for a currency because at first bitcoin is made become a currency and not another things but bitcoin having some advantages in them.

sometimes using bitcoin as payment processor for buying something at ebay with Xapo debitcard, but for withdraw at fiat i will waiting price rising, maybe this is can be called investment too ?

Of course it can be called as an investment as you are waiting for the right time to sell to earn profits from it, and we only invest so that we can get higher profits from it.

Certainly, and I believe that most users use for these purposes as well.

well yeah there is a vast amounts of benefits that bitcoin gives and for me investment possibility is the best as it can make me money

there is maximum people use bitcoin as investment , as buy bitcoin with low price and then wait until increase its price to higher and then sell it in higher price and get a good profit from bitcoin.

I use both, I use bitcoin as an investment and currency, I usually pay the electrical bill with bitcoin because that is the easiest way to spend bitcoin in my country. Curently, there are not many stores that accept bitcoin. However some services like phone and electrical billing accept bitcoin.

I have been thinking about this lately, how can you tell the difference between currency and investment?
Because if you have something of value then you can trade it which makes it equal to a currency.
And when you have something that has value of currency only then you can turn it into an investment.
So currency or investment, both are the same.

Currency and investment has different meaning literally but if we will take it "Using bitcoin as currency or investment" this is the appropriate answer in my own view.

Using bitcoin as a currency means like the way you treat fiat. No holding for price increase but rather using it regularly to the things you want to use it like fiat.

Bitcoin as investment means... yes it's already obvious. You will put money in bitcoin and you are expecting good returns out of it.

I use bitcoin for both. I invest to make trades and I also purchase various necessities of life using bitcoin.
bitcoin is so easy and practical to use.

Yes,you're right when you said using bitcoin is so easy and it nice either to use bitcoin as currency or investment but you need to be more careful in other not to loose your bitcoin just like that cos there's a lot of risk involve in using bitcoin as investment.

well if you will invest into bitcoins then you might lose a lot of money because no one knows ho will investments turn out

Its a 70/30 ratio for me, 70% goes into investment and rest 30% is used as a currency for buying online stuffs, and most of the coins are invested in trading.

If we can use direct bitcoin be sure we could use the currency. But in my opinion is very risky because bitcoin is often fluctuate so prices will quickly up and down and inappropriate when used for currency. I better use bitcoin as a short-term investment because it can make a profit is quite good in my opinion.

It's not a problem if the company deals only with bitcoin services.

They don't have to worry the price fluctuations since overall they are using bitcoin as a regular payment to deal with those services.

Bitcoin doesn't simply just go and fluctuate every second. I believe it has atleast a a minute interval?

Besides, they can use bitpay service to automatically translate bitcoin into usd or euro or whatever currency is available. That way, shop owners don't actually risk from immediate fluctuations.
