Well to do this, we will need a list of merchants who pledged they convert it directly. Most payment providers do convert the bitcons instantly when makeing a purchase for example.
So yeah how can we trust merchants to say they won't convert it? They can do it, without anyone finding it out?

For now it can rely on good hearted businessmen and entrepreneurs who care about the bitcoin economy.  Later we may need to look at how businesses are structured.   

I suggest that all businesses could have their accounts public on the blockchain.  This way the whole economy will be transparent.

Merchants must to preserve their liquidity and pay for expenses so they will mostly convert coins for fiat and i dont see anything wrong with that. If ppl buy same amount of coins they spent, Bitcoin value is not touched by merchants dump. Expecting from merchants to hold all coins is bit to much.

actually it is wrong because it prevent bitcoin to grow, or it slow down it greatly, if no one will dump bitcoin anymore, but they keep using them directly for the enxt thing

we would enter in a circle, where there will be no more the need for fiat, there muats be services out there that can work together with those merchants for paying their expenses

like utility bills and stuff like that, that are for us already, https://www.cashila.com/ for example is one of them

There needs to be more encouragement for shops to keep bitcoin.  There are a few businesses that keep their BTC as BTC and we should be encouraging that.  Not using companies that are just using the bitcoin for buzz and cashing in on all of us bitcoin consumers. 

There should be a list online of all the businesses that dont convert their bitcoins into fiat. Then we could as consumers make that choice.
