I've never used Bitcoin for any purchases. I've always thought of Bitcoin as digital gold, and as a form of wealth protection. Since I've been playing on CoinBase, I may use some of the coins there for purchases, and this will mean I don't have to touch my HODL wallets. What is more likely is that I will install a Lightening node, and use that to send and receive payments.

Yes! here in the Philippines we have the coins (name of the app) which can be use as a payment for electricity bill and water bill, so far so good no need to wait for queue to pay bills, it can buy prepaid load I buy prepaid load mostly for my internet connection.
I hope there can be also a restaurant here that supports bitcoin as a payment, I'm waiting for it Smiley

have been using bitcoin and ethereum to pay for my phone bills
I actually do it to support the use of crypto as a currency

I have bought many things with BTC: from coffee to graphics cards but I have never been able to use it to pay a phone or electric bill or my taxes. That day is not close to being here (I'm in the US).

Every once in a while you hear about a state, NH for instance, where it is being debated.

I don't find this a deal breaker. I consider one of the values of crypto is that it is apart from the state.

be constructive or S.T.F.U
I use bitcoin to buy many sort of things in my country, nothing official tho, no bills no shit, but we have a local groups on FB where people would  sell you whatever you need in exchange for your bitcoin, and they usually pay anywhere from 1% to 8% above market price- depending on the supply and demand, simply because our central bank is not a big fan of crypto and they consider it unsafe.

a funny thing too, i went on a vacation last month , and rented a serviced apartment i found online, i out of no where asked the guy if i could pay in bitcoin "was thinking he doesn't even know what that was" and he said yes yes ! most differently accepted , with a big smile.
