Bitcoins are easier to pay than a debit or credit card, which can be accepted without a merchant account. In your wallet application on your computer or smartphone, enter the recipient's bitcoin address and payment amount, and you can complete the payment by pressing the send button. To make it easier to enter the payee's address, many wallets can be accessed via qr code scanning or NFC technology.

I think it's more practical to use bitcoin, because we can pay easily and do not need a long time. but bitcoin payments are hindered by regulations from each country that still have not granted permission for transactions with bitcoins.

I agree. Although it's generally easier and more practice to transact with bitcoin because it's faster, I think that the challenge comes in the fact that many business entities still doesn't accept payments through bitcoins, therefore, there wouldn't be that many companies where you can actually use it. I think as it becomes more and more popular, which adds up to it being accepted by people, more and more companies will follow suit and accept it as a means of payment for products and services.

This is one benefit of bitcoin. Payment is very easy, even better than debit or credit card payment. For card payment, you need to be physical and machine is needed but bitcoin is instant from either your smart phone or computer .
Main focus of the developing team is to make sure that things will become easy. There wouldn’t be any difficulty for the users to operate bitcoins. As you know, bitcoins users are from different corners of world where they have defend backgrounds and learning levels. So the system have been made so easy and user friendly that even a lay man can get into this field by simple learning and earn money.

but you still have to consider the circumstances that can make the use of crypto currency impossible. At least one can cite the example of old people and children who can not exactly use Bitcoin every day.

Its easy to pay bitcoin as others say for its easy like when paying buying online using a credit card BUT bitcoin is much better you just need simple transactions and when it comes to credit card (because I compared credit card easy as paying to bitcoin). There is a big trill in this way of paying bitcoin because think of it your paying bitcoin and we all know the value of bitcoin can change for example you have .02 bitcoin and the thing or clothes (just think of a thing that you like) that your going to buy in the worth of .01 BTC

Try to canvas imagine that I found a bag that I bought in an online shop and the bag I found in the mall is worth 10 USD so here, now that .01 BTC IS WORTH OF 30 UDS. Imagine are now rich with that instead using it(bitcoin) as payment hold it bacause you might earn more (for the value of bitcoin can grow to sky rocket) or just exchange it for your foreign money

No doubt about that, paying with bitcoin much easier and faster than paying with credit cards and in fact it has cheaper fees, but the biggest problem that bitcoin had and we all witnessed in last year is scaling, last year when bitcoin got so popular that a lot of people were using it the network was flooded and transactions were stuck for days and fees were at crazy values, and that made making any micro transaction made by bitcoin nearly impossible, in fact steam which was accepting bitcoin removed it from the payment method because of how high the fees were, bitcoin is great for micro transactions so if this problem gets fixed which should be with the LN, i am sure a lot of companies will accept it.

no it is not hard to pay with bitcoin but the issue is scaling , The scaling of bitcoin is not as much as visa or paypal and can cause long delays to have the transaction confirmed , ripple has solved that issue somehow but it is not a decentralized crypto.
People have different experience and in different places different people have their difference experience, In some people there are some online shops where they accepting bitcoin for shopping, but in some places there there are shops who are accepting bitcoin so in such places people have the facilities to use bitcoin eve in such a small bitcoin.

Yes actually bitcoin is quite easy to use and fast. We can do direct transactions in online for payment transactions. In bitcoin we can do payment and investment inside. Now many shop use bitcoin as a transactions, just do scanning for payment. It is very easy and fast. In wallet we can do withdrawal to get a cash.

Paying with Bitcoin is quite easy as you just need to have a Bitcoin wallet on your smart phone, add some Bitcoins to your wallet, then to make payment, enter the amount to be paid, address of the receiver, and then press the send button. So you see, it’s so easy, except that it takes a long time to get the transactions confirmed. So you have to wait a little!

Not really if you compare it with e- wallets in operation these days. Money transferring has been made really quick and these wallets too generally use mobile numbers or account numbers to send money. Even the IMPS is good enought to manage these transactions. You cant really see btc is convenient in this case but yes money actually moves in case of btc while in case of fiat its just numbers moving from here and there.

Bitcoin doesn't have scaling problems, but just obstacles to overcome that are being dealt with already. SegWit activation was the first important step moving forward, which opens the door for off-chain scaling layers to be built on top of Bitcoin making scaling no longer an issue. Technically, off-chain scaling solutions offer almost unlimited capabilities that on-chain scaling would never be able to allow without losing a major part of its decentralized nature. Ripple is completely centralized already, where they can scale up as much as they want, which isn't possible with Bitcoin without losing a part of its decentralized nature. Ripple isn't anything special in my opinion, and will become completely redundant when governmental cryptos are being pumped into the economy.

I do not find Nfc technology enough, but in general, not enough infrastructure has been provided for Bitcoin to be a payment method. As a matter of fact, nobody has the courage to spend a high volatility currency. I believe that; payment technology will increase if it is desired.

using bitcoin is simple and useful, but it is necessary to overcome the problems due to "commissions" and variable transfer times so that all people and businesses can use them.

Not all merchants are allowed to use bitcoin as payment method.
For example, in my country they are not allowed to take bitcoin as a money so they have to use payment processors such as bitpay or coingate.
It is not hard, but there are laws and regulations making it hard.

I never used bitcoin in shopping nor pay for insurance. Honestly, i hope in my country, this thing can be running. Because yeah i think, it really helpful and easy. Yet the opposite and only in one city that usually do the transaction using bitcoin. For example, pay for the hotel in bali.
That is not too much difficult to use bitcoin for shopping online. In fact most of the online shops are now accepting bitcoin for shopping in their shops and they even make the process very easy, to even ignorant who have some education about computer can also use bitcoin for shopping, on other side it is a little difficult to use bitcoin for shopping in local shops, because most of the local shops still do not accept bitcoin as payment for shopping.

There is some process to make it faster just like when you use coins.ph app. If 2 user are using same coins.ph and transfer BTC to each other. There will be no transaction applied and the transfer is instant. I think is using some kind of self miner to process all the transaction happened on their own wallet address.

yes that's right 'cause coins.ph (wallet)  is now accepting 3 different types of currecy  which is "php,btc,eth" and you can send to anyone  whithout transaction applied after.. It's so fast and reliable to use , no hassle within a second or minute you will receive it instant.
