Both currency and investment really. I do most of my online transactions using bitcoins now. As for investments, I'm just holding on to a percentage of my bitcoins and just waiting for the value increase to make profit from it.

I use Bitcoin for both, ocasionaly buying stuffs over the internet but mainly I use it as an investment

Right now I use bitcoin as an investment and a added income to make life more comfortable. As their very limited access to use for shopping, its been rarely used as a currency.

I also use them both. Bitcoin is a good investment for everybody. I use it as a currency when buying something online but just for digital goods only and to top up my mobile. Maybe if there are already many merchant accepts bitcoin here i can use it.

I used them as my currency and investment. Well, once I use it as my investment then it will follow that it is my currency use. I use them both because they are very convenient to use.

Basically, I do use 'em as a currency. I do shop online using btc but to be honest, I didn't do any investment with bitcoins. However, I do gamble with 'em (for fun).

Use bitcoin in a blend between investment and dabbling in use. Would like to establish enough that I can trade and make some decent passive income to put towards retirement.

I use it only for investment. I fear to spend btc for some unimportant stuff cause it may rise suddenly at any time. I do not want to tear off the hair from my bum after it happens  Grin

Bitcoin for me, as of the moment, is mainly for investment purposes. I've only got a few and still on the process of accumulating. From where I live, merchants accepting BTC are somewhat small in number right now, so the its function as currency still has very limited use. If more people adopts BTC, I'm sure there will be more merchants accepting it as payment.

I use bitcoin as  a currency, cause using bitcoin in paying my bills,shopping online. I never tried using my bitcoin on investment. Cause i will probably loose them on those investment scheme

I'm also paying some bills with it, for the most part hosting bills to be honest, I use the bitcoin for both investing and as a currency.
I think using them both is good because I'm holding but also spending some.

Nowadays, bitcoin in my place cannot be paid in establishments. I can't use it a currency like a variant for fiat. Cry

I'm pretty sure some country allows their people to pay their bills in bitcoin but in my country they do not allow that. I once exchanged some of my bitcoins to Paypal funds, and then bought myself a USB Flash Drive and a bluetooth earphones.

But that doesn't mean I'm using bitcoin as a currency. People in my country aren't using bitcoin so I bet I won't be using bitcoin too as a currency in the near future.

I'm using bitcoin as an investment as I am waiting for the bitcoin's price to sky rocket. They believe it will happen in June. While I'm still earning some money from Signature Ad campaign, I will not spend it to buy anything from the internet (grocery, gadgets, top-up my phone). I will simply save it to stand as an investment for me.

I use the bitcoin as a investment because its profitable and its the future of the currency's for sure.
It has so many advantages and I sometimes use it as a currency to pay things but this happens not often.

At this moment I am still using my bitcoins as an investment because I have not found a suitable way to spend or exchange my bitcoins, but I am trying to increase my amount of bitcoin to store just a part on them, and actively spend the other part.

I personally think that Bitcoin is a combination of both currency and investment, but the value is primarily given to it because of speculation.

I think using Bitcoin as an investment isn't a bad idea, but at the same time it is quite volatile and only useful for the most confident of investors.
