The miners mine and hold, other mine and sell.

Investors and speculators buy, hold and sell.

You can buy random items in auctions and through the forums.

What are the reasons for the bulk of the bitcoin transfers? I read an article underlying the "dark side" of the internet and TOR network, and they seem to point out that bitcoins are now nearly the exclusive currency for the online "black market" (Note, they are not saying bitcoins are exclusively used for black market transactions)

What have you used bitcoins for?

Miner
Investor
Black Market
Other - explain



if i have a lot of btc i will find an good thing that i can invest. I ask some friends for a business that are legit to become safe and i didn't waste my btc.
Well it's better to do business related to btc or business accepting btc since it can be popular soon. But it's better also to do trading or investing if we have knowledge on both that's the fastest way to earn big now.

I haven't used bitcoins specifically for too many purchases, other than some time cards for MMORPGs a few months ago.  Mostly I just cash them out in mid-sized chunks to supplement my monthly bills.

I use them for everything i can. I have probably spent the most on hardware, but also bought food, candy, games, some clothing, paid for a paper to be written for school, had some graphic design work done, and a significant investment into glbse.  O... and gift cards.

-90lbs of weed
-37lbs of coke
-Two slaves (one died, had to get another)
-Four AKM-74s (full auto)
-plenty of extra mags
-4,000+ 7.62x39 rounds
-Saiga 12G (shitty trigger, oh well...)
-Two Glock 18s with laser, night sights, and osprey suppressors. Plenty of ammo for them as well.
-One Remington 700 with a Leopold scope and collapsible stock


...Just kidding. I was going to post that by itself, then realized I'd probably have the Partyvan outside by tomorrow. Have only bought computer parts to expand my mining. Most of the coins I mine I exchange for USD. I don't have any real need for Bitcoins right now, so I am selling them off.

1. mine some bitcoins.
2. buy some bitcoins.
3. get scammed
4. start at 1.

I seem to be stuck in this loop.
