I am not using it in daily life, the only thing I am doing is earning them to maximum and extent and if I have some spare money then I buy them in small parts to increase the number of coins.
Spending daily with your bitcoin may not help you to save more bitcoins you could just save money from your future purposes right ? if we gonna spend dialy bitcoins then were like wasting money and we could lose bitcoin ilike what you said there i also buy items when its needed using my coins
certainly not good if you do a massive spending for every day even though you're using bitcoin to shop, but I would be very happy when there are a lot of stores that can be used to shop using bitcoin,

Hi
Is there anything like this which will help me to use Bitcoin in my daily life.Like we have a map on the app or web.It shows people nearby you that are accepting bitcoin and services.Like someone living nearby Mcdonalds, he will add that i will accept bitcoin and let you eat at Mcdonalds(you pay him bitcoins..he gives cash to you).Same as traveling people nearby you add their services that for which things they can accept bitcoin.

Is there anything like this already.
yes , there are some countries in this world where you will also find a coffee shop which accepts bitcoin . but still it will take many time to happen like everyone during travel can accept bitcoin .

There is also some restaurant here in my country that accepts bitcoin but it is just one place.  Aside from this place, i can hardly find any other place that accepts bitcoin except the third party site processor where we can pay our bills and 7/11 store where we can top up our bitcoin credit on that site.
You people are lucky that you have got places in your local market where bitcoin is accepted as payment for the things you want to buy. In my place there is no any shop where bitcoin is accepted but here in my places there are some people who can exchange my bitcoins with fiat so when I need fiat I go to exchange with them.
Yeah is too hard to push a shop to accept bitcoin and i'm sure even in america/europe still not many shop place accept bitcoin so we are on trouble to use bitcoin in daily life at least only online shop has help use for use bitcoin in daily life.

Even online shopping is not supporting me at a moment as if I shop anything using bitcoin then I need to pay higher shipping costs which is not affordable and profitable to me.

Same in my situation even  though there are  merchants online who accepts btc as a payment  but still the  shipping  fee would be the big hindrance for  me  to proceed on such transaction  because   fees are too  big  almost half  on the  items  price which is  bad at all thats why  i normally  exchange my bitcoin to fiat and  would  buy on the things  i want to buy offline and  physically its  much better  but the hassle  on exchanging  is there but  there nor problem at all.

i wanna know about bitcoin mining. can anyone help me through the process

You are way too late for bitcoin mining my friend, but it is possible to mine altcoins, your best bet is to go to the mining sub board in the Alternate cryptocurrencies section and read in order to learn what you need.
I think its still not too late to mine bitcoins if you are in place with low electricity cost it can be profitable but it takes a long time to recover your money for buy a hardware miner..
If you have the money necessary, the knowhow and cheap electricity then of course you can still mine bitcoins, but the person asking was a newbie that probably does not know anything about bitcoin and heard from someone that you can earn some money with it.

I don't use bitcoin in daily life because I see using bitcoin in daily life as a waste of coin cause why would I spend my coin if value is still going up potentially.
I don't use my investment in daily life that's a waste of effort.
If you are talking about your savings then it is right you have to secure yoursaving and do not need to waste them while if you need money to spend then  it is better to spend them on your expenditures than to spend your life in hardship.

Spending your Bitcoin isn't necessarily a bad thing and it does help to somewhat stimulate the economy when you do it. That part varies, but overall it isn't that bad. Saving your Bitcoin is saving what extra you have, and if you have extra, then save it. You don't save all of your fiat and you spend some and save some anyways.
Bitcoin is a good to have saving it for a long time gives you benefits if the price will increase more .. there is no bad yeah in spending them since it can help to motivate more stores will accept bitcoin as payment.

Here in my country I think no market accepts bitcoin so in order to use my bitcoins I have to first convert it to fiat and I don't use it in daily life cause I'm collecting my bitcoin as an investment.

By the way I found an interesting article about how small businesses can accept bitcoin . Check it out guys : https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/How_to_accept_Bitcoin,_for_small_businesses

Spending bitcoin is not wasting money, its a currency and it should be spent like other currency when you need something, you spend fiat for your needs so does that mean you are wasting  your money?

Well you could just go around searching for places that accept Bitcoin around where you live. For me there is practically no shops that accept Bitcoin, so I just use a Bitcoin debit card and that makes life a lot easier.
yeah you can use bitcoin debit card because it uses the same as when you use a visa or mastercard or even use the system,
but if you are in the village shop, of course bitcoin debit card will not work, so I really hope there is a bitcoin ATMs in every major city in the world
No. Bitcoin debit card will not have any different from other bank/ATM cards for village or cities. If a village has the facility to accept master/visa cards, then it will definitely accept bitcoin debit cards too, if that bitcoin debit card provider is offering services to that country. I mean to say bitcoin debit card will not have any difference from other card types.

Yes it will be same as bank cards and it will be accepted everywhere where credit cards are accepted so I don't think there will be any problem in using them for shopping.
Debit card is a better choice to use bitcoin in our real life and in that xapo is a pure way to use bitcoins as in xapo we do not need to load and to convert in card fiat but we use bitcoins directly from our wallet. But some people are claiming some issues with xapo. I hope they will fix all sooner.
Here in my country bitcoin is not accepted in supermarket yet that is why we need to exchange our bitcoin to fiat before we spend it but i think soon it will be adopted since some banks are now accepting bitcoin for deposit and withdraw our money in bitcoin wallet.

If supermarkets accepts credit cards then they will accept bitcoin debit card too and in that case you don't have to convert your bitcoins to fiat,  you can use your btc bebit card directly to buy anything.
i think there is many country they have accept bitcoin credit card and they do not need to convert their bitcoin to fiat and some country or supermarket do not accept bitcoin credit card but i hope bitcoin credit card will be acceptable in all world in the future and then we can use bitcoin credit card everywhere for direct shopping.

Supermarkets don't need different method to accept bitcoin debit card, if they have POS terminal then you can easily use bitcoin debit card for shopping and it is applicable in all countries.

Bitcoin isn't that usable every day at all. I get paid in Bitcoins for the services that I offer to various people but I don't spend Bitcoin as much as I use fiat in my daily life. Maybe one day we will come to the point that every transaction is digital. At that time, there will be transparency to every transaction. We can't hide anything from the people. Everyone can know if you had a transaction with someone if they investigate about you and I think that transparency is actually a good thing.

I'm not using the bitcoin my daily life because of the fact that there are here also no stores in my nearby area and the local stores are also not willing to accept it.
I hope they will change their mind soon or later because it would be better for both.

Me too. I just use my bitcoin as an emergency money or something important in my life that I need money I dont anything except in my bitcoin wallet. Then I use my coin after all I just save my bitcoin then if the bitcoin is rising I would definitely trade by my another wallet so that I get profit. By the way I am using coins.ph

Yeah the usage of bitcoin in daily life is almost zero at a moment especially when it comes to spending it physically so I am using it online for mobile upload and for skype credit.
