Most people spend bitcoins at some stores or at online gambling sites. I do not do that. I just buy my bitcoins and save them for when the price goes up. If I am going to spend my coins I may regret the fact that I could make money with it.

I'm already paying for a number of services exclusively with Bitcoin, such as for my mobile plan (Mobile Vikings) and when ordering food online (pizza.de)
The biggest problem is that there is still a lot to be done in terms of adoption.

I would like to see Steam support Bitcoin for example or other really big stores and services.

The main reason is that bitcoin is still limited mainly to online purchases, and I can't really find a local store that accepts bitcoins. Another reason is that bitcoin needs the internet to work and most of the shops here don't even bother to learn how to interface bitcoin into their businesses...

To grow the adoption of bitcoin we need people spending it as a daily currency.
In my country there is not much I cant buy with bitcoins.
Granted not a lot of retailers accept BTC yet but with all the services available now they dont need to.
A bitcoin debit card can be very handy.

Nowadays if I need to pay a bill then I can pay any bill via a site called livingroomofsatoshi

Please list any reasons why you could not use bitcoin for day to day expenses and maybe we can find a way.


I think it's okay to use bitcoin for daily things and in my country it's also rare to find a shop that accept bitcoin, so the solution is sell your bitcoin into fiat and buy with it.



Eventually bitcoin will have more shop in your country you just need to wait for that to happen maybe it will happen this year or the next year.

The problem is that you are using a proxy to buy your good/service. You basically pay in bitcoin and the company sells your bitcoin for cash straightaway. This is bad.

You want adoption, not high trade amount. Just imagine you buying a house with your bitcoin debit card. That's like... 2400 BTC! Imagine someone dumping that much BTC on the market. The bitcoin price is bound to crash. To be honest, you aren't helping the market.

I believe so that not all country does exercise the system of bitcoin. In my country we do not do so because most of the establishment here are accepting bills or currency, those business are also not accepting bitcoin but maybe if your are going to have it by person it depends upon if the person have bitcoin..

There are people who spend bitcoins at stores or at gambling sites but I never do that. I only use Bitcoin to save my money and to make some extra money at the same time.

people mostly spend their bitcoins on digital goods. i think we have to see a wider variety of merchants accepting bitcoin payments. for example when i need to buy a new sofa, or maybe some furniture. would be great to use bitcoin as form of paymenr there.
Why not just use a bitcoin debit card?

To me there is no difference to using my Coinjar bitcoin card or my bank card.
After being locked out of my internet banking last week for 2 days I've given up on them as much as I can.

I can transfer my fiat paycheck to bitcoin for only a $1 fee.

Bitcoin is not widely used in my country nor even known. There is really not much option rather using bitcoin for online payments. I do use bitcoin daily for buying my Mobile load. Other than that, I have to convert bitcoin to fiat to be able to make use of it for my daily expenses.
Can you use a bank card for eftpos transactions daily/weekly?

What country are you in?

It needs not only a plastic card. Need the terminal to read it. At this time that read right now probably will not work?
