I typically just use it to buy some digital items that are relatively cheap.
Nothing too expensive or extravagant. Grin
I only claim my bitcoins from faucets nothing too much earned doing those.

there are many ways to use bitcoin whether online or offline but the most noticeable use of bitcoin is thru online like buying digital goods and if your into porn they are opening there payment thru bitcoin now but not mostly because they are profiting from it usually to those underage people who want to subscribe to their site now knowing they are underage. Offline forms of spending bitcoin are too small at the moment and its hard to find one who accepting it depending of country of origin.
i think online shopping is the best way of spending bitcoin , in fact in our area there is not such a shop where we can use bitcoin. therefore we mostly change our bitcoin first into  fiat and then use it for completing our daily needs.

there's not much options to use bitcoin in my country as there's almost no local merchant who accept bitcoin. So the only way is to use the bitcoin either convert it into cash and buy the goods or buy digital goods from online merchant who accept bitcoin, in my case for buying steam games.

I've yet to find a local shop that directly accepts Bitcoin as payment. So, I haven't paid with bitcoin in person yet.

But, we do have a local exchange that lets us pay utility bills, tuition, phone credits, etc. We pay bitcoins and the exchange probably converts it to fiat then they pay the service. It's convenient and conversion to fiat is easy as well.

I've also used bitcoin to pay for some online stuff like membership, e-books, and some game credits.
Plus, there's also the investments and the occasional deposits for gambling.

In some countries bitcoin cannot be use to buy Real stuffs like food clothes and other goods and services but even though bitcoin can be used in plenty of ways mostly in the cyberworld it is used in online markets like Game Credits, Gadgets some use it in the dark webs to purchase weeds,drugs. Others are trading it to a different crypto-currency or exchanging to dollars, so how to you use it ? Smiley

not much different as you express, on my most frequently used to exchange bitcoin bitcoin currency into my country, about my online shopping is still rarely use bitcoin as a means of payment, because bitcoin my country can not be accepted by the government as currency.

Luckily, here in my place, we have two bitcoin ATMs and a few coffee shops that accept bitcoin as payment  Grin But still there are some problems while using these machines. One ATM belongs to a restaurant, so every time I want to use my bitcoin as fiat money, I have to order something to wait for the transaction to be confirmed and it's long like a century. It's quite inconvenient Cry The coffee shops are good, though, except for a few times they don't accept bitcoin for no reason.
You are very fortunate to have such a facility. a lot of people out there who can not feel it. it is true that one of the things that is still a shortage of bitcoin is a confirmation of receipt late.

I use it just how it could be used now. We have limited options in our country and most of it is just to exchange it to fiat.
Prepaid load is a good business here in our country considering people want something cheaper as always. Not much use the postpaid so my loading business is blooming. Add up the people who want to buy something online. They just go to me and ask a favor to buy it through bitcoin for they have no money online and cash on delivery is not available in the item that they are buying. I just add up some percentage whenever they want it as soon as possible.

We don't really spend bitcoin in the Philippines but we exchange it to our local fiat. And used it to buy some stuff, we hope that some store here will offer bitcoin as a payment method so that it will be easy for us to buy stuff using bitcoin.

It will not be easy for any country to adopt bitcoin so easily and even merchants should know that there is a payment system something like bitcoin and for that to happen I think we should tell them that they can also accept payments via bitcoin and that will draw their attention to know more about bitcoin but I think it will take long time for that to happen.
Yes it's true many people or shop owners didn't know about bitcoins because of being busy in their business and the government or media didn't tell it to people and lack of knowledge but we have one convenient store that you can buy bitcoins using philippine currency.

i am agree with this, maybe they don't follow in technology news or maybe they know about bitcoin but they don't think that bitcoin is a good for them. maybe they don't want to get involve with bitcoin because they are busy with their store and don't thinking that bitcoin can be applied to with their business.

beside that, i think the news about bitcoin itself in real life is not much depend on internet and i think it is our duty to introduce bitcoin in to public and spread the news about bitcoin.

There are still inconvenience in a transaction regarding bitcoin it needs to eat up a lot of time and patients, you can never really say that bitcoin is pure inconvenience in just one point of view because there are a lot of people usually taking such problems, like in my case I will withdraw my bitcoin on the ATM the transaction in my wallet has been approve that is why I am fairly confident that I can get my money but the ATM has a problem and doesn't know any transaction that I am inputting on it, well there is no 100% real convenient regarding bitcoin but I am still showing my support with it because of the earnings.

I do not think that there is even one shop in my whole country that accepts Bitcoins. There are some sites from my coutry that accept Bitcoin and promote it,  ut you can not really use it for physical good. But there is ONE bitcoin ATM at the capital cuty and that is pretty much everything we have got.
I am wander about this bitcoin ATM in your capital. We haven't one here or even in the capital and I wander how it works. How big fees the ATM takes or does it take fees at all?
Thanks.

Where I live, it is tough to purchase real life items using bitcoins. So I mostly use it for Steam games. However, there is a great service called Gyft, https://www.gyft.com/ , which allows you to purchase gift cards for

almost any online site, and one of the payment options allows for Bitcoins. So I've recently been purchasing Amazon gift cards using my bitcoins through Gyft. It is a nice feeling purchasing something online using

bitcoin and having it show up to your house in the next day or two (Amazon Prime). However, I wish everyday items that I purchase in stores like malls were able to be bought with bitcoin. Hopefully the day will come.

This time, I just spent bitcoin by way of exchanging it with fiat on reliable exchanger. Well, I prefer to spend bitcoin that way, because I can share it with other people. apart from that I can spend it freely. for the moment I do not intend to spend a bitcoin with how to use the online store, or something on the internet.
