I convert about 80% of my paycheck into BTC. I leave enough in my bank account to pay bills (though will soon be testing the bitcoinbillpay system).

I have about $100 in cash left from about $400 I had back in February that I use for little things like getting my hair cut or needing to pay for something.

I only spend bitcoins for everything else.

I'd say I hoard, but having less than 0.01BTC to my name isn't quite hoarding. I'm attemptimg to collect enough little by little to be able to use them.

Personally, I mine my bitcoins and then I go buy items online as the price of Bitcoin goes higher; When the price is low I hoard them until they are worth something, for me this is like getting things for free, like those reward points at stores.

Everything I buy is in BTC, I never exchange it to fiat.

Gambling, mostly playing poker, and selling when I need some money.  I don't buy, although I probably will buy some on Coinbase at some point just to up my sell limits.  I'm in no real hurry, though, because I have yet to exceed or even get near exceeding them.

I know most of you long timers here will hate how I use bitcoins. I mine to fund all of my random online purchases (steam, ebay, humble bundle sales, etc) I just look at it like its free money, power is dirt cheap in BC, Canada so my power bill only went up a few dollars a month

I use Bitmit, to trade the BTC's for cash into my paypal account.

There are way too many options that apply to just choose one.

I am completely open to spending BTC but until it becomes easier to do so, I will have to stick with just buying and hoarding.  Hopefully the day will come where we can easily spend. Smiley

I run a paintball business that accepts Bitcoin. I also do a little day trading and am working on getting some Bitcoins at a good price to hold long term. I also do small ($10 or so) loans on BTCJam just for fun.

I have mined a few, bought a few, I hold most, but I have a few sell and buy orders in place for dips and peaks, but I also want to buy a Subaru WRX with my BTC. So quite a few.

There are indeed many ways to use Bitcoin. I simply wanted to open a poll to get a snapshot of how people tend to be involved with this revolutionary currency.

My apologies if a similar poll has been done in the past.

Thanks for participating.
