I don't spend much of it, at least not in the conventional daily expenses. Instead, I'm saving most part of it in a safe wallet, since there are not too many places to spend it where I live.
We all are facing the same problem that we cannot spend it at offline places, but I don't prefer to save all of them, whenever I see higher price I convert it to fiat and use it for buying things.

I do spend them but mostly at online deals or even sometimes real life exchanges, I never found a shop or store accepting bitcoin and although it would just be simple to use coinbase or any other site but I think the owners either don't know or don't want to spend minor effort to accept BTC.

I think you will have to restructure your question. Never mind, spending bitcoin outside the internet or digital world is not yet possible in my country. I will have to convert it into fiat and then spend it. Never the less, it getting good traction here and I can't wait for some new store to open up. We're going to have an online store based on our country which accepts bitcoin. so yeah that sounds promising in popularizing bitcoin in my country.

No, i don't. I never spend my bitcoins on real life, because in my country, there is no online shops that accept bitcoin, so i can't spend my coins on real life but i usually spend my coins on online.

You have experience in spending your coins online, doesnt it mean you have experience in spending it?  And these item you are buying are use by you in real life?.  So i guess you have spend your coins in real life.  Unless you spend it to  buy item in a game. And use it virtually.  Anyway, most users are not aware that they are already using it and spending it in real life.

Unfortunately there are not many places accepting Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies in the place where I live, but It would be very interesting if there were a better number of alternatives to do it.

Sometimes I have the opportunity to use it paying bills, loading the cellphone or sending money to other people. But it is something I rarely do, and would like to have more alternatives for it.

Same here, never paid bills with it though but used them for recharging my cellphone which is the only option i have recently as there are no places in my place too where i can buy things and pay with bitcoins, hopefully i will be able to do that one day.
Most of us just uses our earnings to pay our prepaid loan in our phones, it is not really that big so that is just the way to do it. On the other hand it is a good benefit if we can see in the future a merchants that are willing to accept bitcoin so we will not cash out our money anymore and spend directly.

Spending bicoins directly to buy anything would be much easier as it will not involve any fees, as of now if I have to sell my bitcoins and convert to fiat then I need to pay 2% transaction fees, which is really high if volume of bitcoins is higher.

I have tried to in my daily life but it is difficult to find a place that accepts them where I live.
Maybe in the future more places will be taking them for exchange of goods and services where I reside. One can only hope for this too eventually transpire.

I was laugh read your experience Cheesy, like I can feel what you have experienced felt like...hurraaaaaa Grin lol.
Well, in my country still there are no shops or stores that accepted bitcoin as payment except for online stores. But we can exchange bitcoin to local currency and use it for daily needs.

lol . it looks like they are really amazed because you paid using bitcoin and they don't even know i guess that there was also a another way of payment . i think they getting very curious as they are asking about it , you know that would be very cool .

yes i have spent my coins at real life i have buy some goods with bitcoin
and purchased mobile top up and pay some bills
some shops and restaurants in my country accept bitcoin for payment so i can use bitcoin to buy some goods and foods at that place
Well i never tried buying goods with bitcoins or try to buy some random staff from the internet , because here in my country shops who accept bitcoin is limited well to be honest i only use my bitcoin wallet to pay my online bills like my monthly bills where i can pay thru my bitcoin wallet

Yes even in my country there are no local sites that accepts bitcoin as a mode of payments, so I prefer to convert it to my local currency if I really have to spend it.

Yeah that is the  problem with all of us that we are not able to spend it directly and even there are no local sites that accepts bitcoins as a mode of payment.

I spend my bitcoin for pay my school fee and sometimes for my fun need.
Sometimes my parent ask me , why I never asked them for their money  Grin

That is a really great feeling to be financially independent but not dependent on anyone because if you are independent in terms of money then you can buy or do whatever you want but if you are dependent on your father or brother then you will have to tell them if for what thing you are asking for money.

Today I went to get a coffee with my S/O and then to my surprise they had a blackboard outside saying they accept bitcoin! so ofcourse we rushed in and went for a coffee. Had the americano was pretty good Wink so yeah i spend coins in real too

Which county you belong to? You are lucky that you are able to spend it directly for a cup of coffee, I hope I don't have to wait longer to do the same.
