no denying I will definitely be happy if that happens, but I will not make payments with bitcoin if making everyday purchases I will probably use / spend my bitcoins on certain products only, I prefer to keep my bitcoins secret and exchange to fiat if i need money

You can have as many addresses as you wish so why not to have some small amount addresses for everyday purposes and not to show your main addresses? You can use some of mixers if you want to hide the links between your addresses: if you are not hiding from some big organization like government or huge corporation it will be probable enough secure, if bitcoin will be used worldwide to that moment.

I don't take loans, ask for sig if I ever do.
Nothing. I don't think it'd have that much of a big impact on what I'd do, I'm already using it in the first place anyway, and it doesn't exactly change anything in general when it comes to paying for products/services. Heck, I reckon it wouldn't even affect most people that much, even if they were owners of Bitcoin. Might be different for countries that don't allow it though, though tbf, they can't exactly stop you if you really wanted to buy/use it.

For me I will open my Bitcoin mining farm that will be public with a website and registered under the law for clients that will want third-party services that will align with global best practices of cryptography and digital asset management.
You should be able to do that even now though. There are some countries that don't allow it but they're in the minority afaik, all in all, you should still be able to.

WHAT IS THE FIRST THING YOU WILL DO IF BITCOIN BECOMES GLOBALLY ACCEPTED JUST LIKE THE INTERNET?
For me I will open my Bitcoin mining farm that will be public with a website and registered under the law for clients that will want third-party services that will align with global best practices of cryptography and digital asset management.
If bitcoin spreads like internet all over the world what I will do for me is I will set up a beauty parlor soap and a restaurant and residential hotel. There I will launch cryptocurrency transactions. There people will expect to go and pay with crypto currency. I'll invent something weirder out there to attract people. I will introduce huge commission system for those who will trade through cryptocurrency. Every week I will do lottery system. Every week I will announce winners among my customers and distribute prizes to them. This way I will discover everything I need to improve my business model.

I have always dreamed of having a hardware wallet store and also joining the official hardware wallet reseller network but the stance of the government in my country towards cryptocurrency restricted me from the dream.
If it happens that Bitcoin becomes legal tender globally, I will pursue the dream and also create a business network that will accept Bitcoin as payment.
In the country where you live now bitcoin is well received, most likely in a few years later bitcoin will become a legal tender globally, you can do whatever you want and can plan from now on what you will do, you can collect as many bitcoins as you can also accept bitcoin payments in your shop, but I personally don't think that way at all, because in my country the people's mindset has not been upgraded, just investing in stocks is said to be gambling let alone bitcoin, even to currently bitcoin transactions in my country are very small, only one percent of world transactions.

My choice will be accepting bitcoin into the business. I'll also encourage others to add bitcoin acceptance into the business. Even now people around have got good understanding, but the legality issue still prevails. Very few countries have officially revealed the legality status where rest of the countries just stay without making any decision. So, the legality reveal will make more common people start using bitcoin without any fear. To reach such an universal legal status it'll take atleast a generation.

Nothing,

When Bitcoin has been accepted globally become a legal tender, it mean the demand of Bitcoin will be very high and I believe the price already hit at least one million USD. I don't think Bitcoin would suffer bear market since any country already trust and believe in Bitcoin, so the longer you hold your coin, you will make a lot profit in the future. But it's still a dream or imagination, I still hard to believe if Bitcoin can be accepted everywhere, although El Salvador accepting Bitcoin as legal tender seems to become a prove if any dream or imagination is possible to happen.

Wow, that would be HUGE! I guess first thing I'd do is cash out some fraction of my stash because if Bitcoin would be accepted as legal tender globally it would skyrocket well above $100k! That would be fun!  Cool

We all will agree that most countries around the world have had a misconception about bitcoin which has lowered the rate of Bitcoin adoption globally, various countries with their own mode of Bitcoin view the authoritarian states like china will have a total ban on Bitcoin even though it is an impossible thing since bitcoin is decentralized uncontrollable and independent.

Even with all this, Bitcoin has continued to consistently thrive to pursue its true mandate and even though a few numbers of Bitcoin adopters and bitcoin have been perceived as illegal, and public display of Bitcoin can be prosecuted through states laws that ban Bitcoin authoritatively e.g china and other countries in Africa and other part of the world that have one or two regulations.

You know that you can do that right now?

You don't need permission from anyone, and anyone in the world can pay with Bitcoin to anyone right now.

There's no need to wait for making Bitcoin legal tender anywhere, it's already here. You can pay and receive payments with Bitcoin from all around the world.

Bitcoin becoming a globally accepted decentralized digital currency is a dream which I believe will be a reality some day, but the only thing that bothers me is that, it might take a very long time for this to happen, there is no way every country in the world will turn and make bitcoin an accepted means of buying and selling, it's a thing that will happen gradually from country to country and the span between one country saying yes to bitcoin and the other doing to same might stretch up to a year or even more..

But if eventually I am still alive when bitcoin becomes a global currency like the us dollars, I don't think there is anything I will do other than to just enjoy the benefits it brings.

The way I. Looking at it, I don't think Bitcoin would ever be generally excepted looking at the way way many countries had been antagonizing the adoption of Bitcoin. There are some countries who had already bam Bitcoin activities including mining and investing in Bitcoin. It is just too bad for now that the government are planning to regulate Bitcoin which is against the original goal why it was invented.

the BIS GHOS (bank of international settlements governors/supervisors) set the main rules of central banks reserves, collateral and settlements
they have a draft to allow central banks to invest upto 2% in decentralised cryptos like bitcoin. (the banks first petitioned the BIS for 5% but the BIS conceded to allow 2%). this wont become their policy until 2025. but is a sign that central banks(nations government banks) want bitcoin
(they have separate %/categories for other cryptos like stable coins)

I hope soon the government would see good reasons of investing and going for the adoption of Bitcoin which is going to be a huge success to all endeavours to ensure that people are good reasons why to invest in Bitcoin.

Realistically speaking.  I would probably not change my behavior.

I can use Bitcoin today as if it was legal tender.  I can take care of most of my monthly expenses with it.  Only thing changing is I would not need to purchase Gift Cards to pay for stuff.  I would not need to access Third Parties to pay for some expenses.  And I would not need a Cryptocurrency Debit Card.  So what changes is I would save a few dozen dollars monthly.

Do you really think everyone would go crazy if Bitcoin became legal tender.  Realistically most of them will not care.  Skeptics will go on with their skepticism.  Haters will keep on hating.  Bitcoin will continue living.  That is it.

The way the all mighty and powerful nations view bitcoin is no different in China than it is in The EU or the USA. Don't make the mistake to think that. They all see BTC as a threat to their own economy and the never-satisfied hunger they have for control. A nation with the freedom to choose their own money isn't their agenda. Expect more and more centralized and government-owned national currencies to pop up in the future. Especially in the civilized western democracies.

It already is globally accepted, but this question of yours doesn't fit in with the subject. No currency is global tender and bitcoin won't be either. I don't know where you live, but is there a government agency there that can prevent me from sending BTC to an address you give me? Is there one in China, Afghanistan, Cuba, Nigeria...? No one needs to give you permission to accept bitcoin. The code and software gives you the needed access rights.

^Becomes worldwide currency like fiat, all stores, and online merchants are free to use BTC and must accept BTC.
Probably Satoshi Nakamoto is happy to see that his/their creation was successfully accepted worldwide as their goal because you can purchase BTC anywhere by increasing the number of BTC ATM machines everywhere in your place since it is fully legal.
I will do nothing with my BTC, hold some spend some because that is the reason why BTC was created to become an alternate to fiat that no one entities that control.

But have you looked with the possibility that even if Bitcoin would be accepted to more countries, the demand won't be as big as with iur expectations?

But I am sure that the demand would be way bigger than the demand right now.  After all, we are talking about global acceptance.


Like at the present to counteies wherein it is already accepted; many people are still not engaging because they are simply worried with their welath in relation to market price volatility.
 

But isn't the price volatility one of the reasons why Bitcoin become a sensational topic for investors and traders?  If the hindrance as country's restriction is lifted, I am sure more and more people will come to trade Bitcoin.

And I somehow agree, in terms of businesses and payments. As long as the prices of your products are fiat based, there won't be an aquity between price and capital because profit would be conditional. Think of buying a $5 pants in btc. If your capital is $3 in fiat (assuming that you bought it thru fiat), and you are planning to sell it in btc for $5. If there is a bullish trend market value won't be stationary, it could either be loss or profit. And same thing goes with the ideology of doubt towards using this technology in businesses.

The volatility of the price in relation to business establishment had long been solved.  Converting Bitcoin real-time will remove the worry you are stating.  And in the given scenario of this thread, I believe fiat currency and Bitcoin will work for hand in hand here.

I believe I will open my own business and accept Bitcoin as payment method since people will surely excited to use Bitcoin for their purchase. There will be a demand for business that accepts Bitcoin that time which is very good to earn more profits from the Bitcoin craze.

Also buying goods on our super market using Bitcoin as direct payment is cool. Imagine you are going on the wet market to buy fresh fish while local sellers accepts Bitcoin payment for small purchase. I just hope that transaction fee that time will be cheaper through the use of more developed lightning network because there will be a problem on huge fee if this kind of mass adoption really happened.

but lets play scenarios..

in a world where bitcoin is common and allowed
countries with higher electric will not be mining centres of industry.
these countries will try to accumulate coin via investment spot market and also through retail acceptants via merchants/supermarkets/businesses

counties with low electric will become mining centres where majority of accumulating coin will be via mining and less so from market investment and merchant acceptance

this is becasue if they can mine in say norway at $17k/btc and hawaii at $90k/btc

norway wont want to local-domestically use btc at supermarkets at $17k local value rate . because retailers will want to  sell goods at the $17k area as thats its local value... so you wont see many miners want to spend btc locally if they can sell their coin for higher on international exchange speculative spot markets

hawaii cant mine so they will buy cheaper on speculative spot markets and then happily use as currency domestically in supermarkets knowing their mining market sees bitcoin worth upto $90k but able to buy products for less than this and supermarkets happy to accept less than this

I am very pessimistic about this, but I will be happy if this really happens globally.

The first thing of course in my business it will be used in bitcoin payments and everyone will be happy if all the shops also accept this, but the important thing for me is to accumulate as many bitcoins as possible because this is part of my goal, but with various products on sale/ buying with bitcoin will make it easier for us to do it, then what about fiat money? It is difficult for people to leave because of their physical form because of their comfort so far.

We will see in the future how the new system will operate.
