Topic: What can you buy with bitcoin? - page 11. (Read 1942 times)

The beginning of the bitcoin transaction to buy something real hasn't just begun, but it's been a long time since May 22, 2010 where Laszlo Hanyecz bought pizza for 10BTC. Until now, buying goods with bitcoin is growing, it's just that people buy more in the marketplace because of the times

As you all said before, bitcoin has become an impactful currency and it’s still growing more and more. Perhaps, in the future it would be treated like a normal currency not only crypto.  Maybe even all cryptocurrencies will displace physical ones. In my country there are not so many places where you can pay by bitcoin, it seems like it’s still a newness. Of course I wish it wasn’t. I think that legalizing bitcoin in many countries would be a huge step to global digital money.

You can buy anything but it would be depends on the seller if they would accept cryptocurrency or bitcoin so far the things that can be bought by bitcoins that I know are listed below:

- Services (different services that offered by freelancers)
- Collectibles
- Digital goods
- New investment / New Assets
- Sometimes Physical goods

so far here are things I know that can be bought by bitcoin plus the things that was listed on the articles you've given on your post.

I think bitcoin is already stretch his market power buying. Now it can buy real state? That's great news. Investment are going to buy another investment. Here in our country we have a local wallet that can buy loads,money remittance and paying bills. I hope it can develop in buying real state or gold jewelry to make our investment more wide.

Bitcoin grows a lot now and this is the proof that bitcoin is widely accepted on some places and mostly on the online sites. Before is the devoloping years of bitcoin and right now, its the start of the adoption level. We should be more happy now and of course we should spend our bitcoin on the good things that worth the amount of bitcoin.

Yes, it might not be a direct bitcoin-to-bitcoin transaction, but least we can used our bitcoin to buy, purchase goods and pay our bills and for me that is the closest we can get to the mass adoption we all have been longing for.

There are websites that accepts bitcoin as payment though, haven't tried it because I know the custom fees will be exorbitant.

I can't buy anything in my country with bitcoin, the government prohibits the usage of bitcoin as a purchase and sell transaction tool here, I can only do trading with bitcoin

Despite the increase acceptability of bitcoin by stores and services the fact still remains that bitcoin can not be use to buy each and everything as you have said. It clear there are more adoption of bitcoin but it usage in the real life is still restricted to a very few things which are most time not accessible to the common user of bitcoin.

With bitcoin we can buy each and everything, and this depends upon the effort that we take. As in the op we've got increased number of services and stores accepting bitcoin compared to the past. There are people who are meeting their life needs with the direct usage of bitcoin.

Obviously you could buy anything with Bitcoin, it was a currencies right? In Japan Market the big ones, or even on the small market bitcoin already accepted as Legal Payment method. so you can buy anything with it except if the regulation of the County bitcoin was prohibited for transaction purpose than Bitcoin was worthless, yet time by time Nations/countrys/regions starting to legalize bitcoin. Hopefully in the future we can use bitcoin in all over nation.  

Thank you for the very good and useful question for all of us. Bitcoin is gradually showing people its value as big over time. I think when you have Bitcoin you almost buy everything from on the other hand it brings wealth and changes people's lives. Our increasing confidence in Bitcoin and the future that I believe Bitcoin will be even more popular.

If regulations can bring about the betterment in Bitcoin, so be it. Thought of regulation in cryptocurrency to be more positive than negative to Bitcoiners if the government will not purposely create what we can't bear.
Bitcoin is be used and still be use to purchase many products and service online outside what OP has pointed out. Buy Iphones with Bitcoin   and also, 15.4″ – MacBook Pro® – 16 GB Memory – 1TB SSD

Bitcoin has not yet impacted the real life of people by I think that mass adoption is coming slowly and steadily.
In my country the government is thinking to allow the citizens to pay taxes in cryptocurrencies (Bitcoin/Ether/Ripple) and this is going to be a huge step forward. The sad thing that if this happen then the environment will be somehow regulated.

That's what I experienced too, I live in a country that has services that can pay various bills. I feel happy because now I have the ease and speed in every financial transaction that I do. Bitcoin and digital currencies have changed my life, I now have income from investments that I have and I also get the opportunity to be able to do various financial transactions so safely and comfortably.

I've seen a plenty of listings with places that accept BTC and in almost all cases that was a some kind of PR move where either BTC prices were much higher than the market prices to that stuff or it is simply  far not the cheapest shop and you may find another one with everything 50% cheaper. So it may be much easier and cheaper to sell your BTC on exchange and buy whatever you need in any store with your fiat.

No, in my country you can't buy anything with bitcoin directly. Also we can't trade legally due restriction from government. But indirectly possible trade and use bitcoin. Just we need convert into local money. However few international organisations allowing bitcoin as a payment method, and hope slowly it will be accept all over world but need time. Who know perhaps after few years even we can use on our native country. Nothing is impossible, just need a revulsion.

We can buy cellphone load primarily and those essential for gamings. But aside from that, there are merchandise that can be bought with bitcoin as payment such as cakes. The shop which is behind this idea is 'The Bunny Baker'. They actually made a bitcoin cake for the Bitcoin Philippines meetup last January. There's also a cupcake shop which makes a made-to-order cupcakes, of course. Aside from pastries, one can also buy sundries or smoked meats. Photography services and imported items can also be bought with the help of bitcoin.

The only thing that I have bought using bitcoin is a gift card, but now I need to be so careful if I want to use bitcoin to buy something as it is illegal in my country to use bitcoin as a payment method. Lucky for those who live in countries where bitcoin are accepted as alternative payment method.

Through crypto debit cards I can buy anything I want with Bitcoin as visa or mastercard is accepted everywhere. Besides that, there are many shops accepting Bitcoin but I don't think I would pay with btc.
