As a trader using cryptocurrency as a means of payment is not acceptable in my country alternatively I exchanged my cryptos to fiat via a reputable and trusted exchange for my daily life ie payment for goods and services I hope to see shops accepting cryptos in the nearest future in my country.

I using my bitcoins in terms of paying bills every month and buying some goods and services but there are still issues that I keep experiencing like high transaction fees and traffic in the network. I think some of the people will see it as not inconvenient because of the factors like transaction fees and the confirmations.

Few days ago I read some article about bitcoin usage in cities around the world, `10 cities that are bitcoin hotspots` direct link : https://www.investopedia.com/articles/forex/042415/10-cities-leading-bitcoin-adoption.asp
To make a short list:
City: Merchants ATM's
accepting bitcoin
1. San Francisco 177 29
2. Vancouver 86 48
3. Amsterdam 74 1
4. Ljubljana 51 5
5. Tel Aviv 58 4
6. Zurich 64 8
7. Tampa 93 13
8.Buenos Aries 130 3
9. New York 122 117
10. London 88 74
This is updated list, if you can find some list from 5, or more, years ago you will see that adoption is happening. Maybe we are not making some fast progress for now, but once we get into some higher speeds we can expect price to skyrocket.
We don't have any medium of promotion through advertisements and other media's. This means the progress in adoption won't happen in supersonic speed. It reaches one person, further the next and in a slow phase it continues without getting stopped. The same is what we're experiencing at present, and hope each and every cities around the world has got at least one shop accepting bitcoin by the end of 2020. To make a short list:

No, I do not use cryptocurrencies in real life, because in my country it is impossible, there are no appropriate services and infrastructure. I hope in the future the situation will change and people in my country will use all the advantages of cryptocurrencies.
It is normal for most of the countries in this world to not have enough places that accept cryptocurrency as a mode of payment. They are still skeptical with the cryptocurrencies because they believed that it is more on the side of liability rather than an asset because of the volatility of the market. In the future, as the cryptocurrency will be known worldwide, I believed that it will be accepted as payment option like how people accepted and uses credit cards.Even in the developed nations, stores that accept Bitcoin are few and far between. And unfortunately, there have been hardly any growth during the last two years. Some of the stores and merchants that used to accept Bitcoin have removed the option recently (examples are Stripe and Steem). And in the developed world, in many of the countries making payments with BTC is not even legal.

Here in India, it is very difficult to use cryptocurrencies in daily life, due to legal complexities and lack of options. And in my case, I am residing in a small town and here hardly anyone is knowledgeable about Bitcoin. So in order to spend my coins, I need to convert them to fiat cash first (through various peer-to-peer mediums, as exchanges are not available in India).
That is not the case with India alone. As far as I know, even the biggest countries of the world have not legalized bitcoin and only few companies all over the world give option to purchase stuff in bitcoin. So just give some time before decentralized crypto currencies go mainstream. At present, it is more important to grab these coins instead of utilizing them. After all, it is profit that has brought investors here.

In a daily basis yes, but only for reloading my phone to able to call. I pay my internet bills with crypto in the monthly. It is very useful as for now- I don't know when it will last but I am maximizing it's utilities for now. Another is I send money to my relatives using crypto and it is the best thing that I liked about, less fees and instant transactions.
It's the same thing as mine, I don't usually use cryptocurrency that much since services offering the use of it here is not yet dessiminated and active. Our country is still struggling on accepting cryptocurrencies as a legal currency wherein it could actually help many people in different ways. Convenience and less tax can be observed with your transactions in crypto that's why it is very important that we do all the things possible to convince our fellow countrymen to agree and legalize the use of cryptocurrencies all over the globe.

I must admit that I am not too happy with the way I use cryptocurrency in my daily life.
As a rule, these are exchange operations allowing me to get some fiat means of living, or gambling.
All this is just about financial speculation, not much different from similar speculation with ordinary money.
But this is the essence of technology at the current level.

but cryptos are not banned on your country ? i guess not because you are still here accesing a crypto related forum and you can still use your cryptos for online purchases right ? but its still strange that no one have put a service offline ?
its not that hard at all , i mean if your country already have banks and stores then they can always accept or support crypto payments that way . its not needed to build a seperate building just to use a crypto if budget is thier concern

Right now, it is hard to find a store in my community where I can spend my bitcoin. The high volatility of the bitcoin is the reason why some of businesses are not accepting it as a mode of payment.
And also, because of negative history of bitcoin that's why its too difficult to find any bitcoin stores that accept cryptocurrency especially bitcoin. if government is going to share positive about bitcoin. maybe, there are a lot of business man will going to accept it and everyone will positively use it as currency too. we can do now is to purchase online of a meanwhile.

I really used my earnings in cryptocurrency in my daily life because using crypto helps me to have a better income, that is why it is the reason why i don't need to ask money from my parents because i have my invome to provide the things that i wanted and needed. Thanks to crypto that i could now do things that i have never done before like going in different places and buy the latest gadgets.
Crypto currencies helped a lot of people in getting out of financial problems. You must consider yourself one of the luckiest because still a huge percentage of world population is unaware. Not only this, few people do not even invest into crypto currencies after its discovery. Bitcoin, the most beneficial asset so far, has introduce this world with young millionaires in a short period of time.

I have not used it at all, because in our country there are still appeals about the dangers of using crypto so that almost all fields have not supported crypto transactions and services
I don't think that is the right theory. Governments or politicians don't understand how the crypto market works and just want people to be safe. but inside of that, we can still make a lot of money and that's not fraudulent behavior. Crypto market will soon grow strongly due to blockchain technology and that country will have to regret not using crypto.

To be honest, I really want to use cryptocurrency in my daily life, but since the country where I live does not allow
cryptocurrency as a means of payment. So from this moment I only use it as a digital asset. If one day I need money,
the cryptocurrency that I have, i will convert to fiat. So even though the cryptocurrency that I have can not used directly
in my daily life, still useful in my opinion. Because it can make money by becoming digital asset.
Your country doesn't allow using crypto currencies as a form of payment inside your own country. This does not mean that you won't be able to use it to buy anything online. You can always make purchases indirect using crypto currencies. Like for example, you can buy gift cards using crypto currencies and then use those gift cards to make your purchases. This way you won't fall into any kind of legal problems. Bitrefill is one of the most trusted site for buying gift cards. Those have a whole lot of collections of different gift cards! cryptocurrency as a means of payment. So from this moment I only use it as a digital asset. If one day I need money,
the cryptocurrency that I have, i will convert to fiat. So even though the cryptocurrency that I have can not used directly
in my daily life, still useful in my opinion. Because it can make money by becoming digital asset.
