What have you bought with Bitcoin? Is it easy? And how can I do it right?

What do you mean how can you do it right? There are several things i can do directly with bitcoin straight from my wallet like paying bills and buying phone credits. I've also converted btcs to fiat for offline purchases.

I have bought a lot of things, Especially, in the morning usually, i buy my breakfast through Bitcoin. Not only that But also I have bought a web domain from Namecheap. I also know that Godaddy also accepts Bitcoin nowadays.
In recent times, My cousin has bought a large amount of cloth by Bitcoin. so You can buy anything from Bitcoin.


No one will believe it that you can access the bitcoin in the hotel and restaurants.
You can buy the online services and some sites provides the way to purchase the products in the e-commerce store as well. So having bitcoin will be work in online site only not with the real stores as of now.
Please wait for some years to access bitcoin in all the places.

I buy a lot of things using bitcoin, I was able to buy bags, shoes and even clothes this stuff were all from my bitcoin earnings, I am so glad that since the first day I rank up as Junior member I joined signature campaign and never did I get an idle time here in forum because I was always accepted in all campaign I've joined. Now, I am planning to buy some appliances but I need to save a lot from my earnings here good thing the value of bitcoin keeps increasing.

I'm only 4 months old in bitcointalk, and until now there's nothing I can buy, because I have not gotten bitcoin yet. it is not easy, it takes the sacrifice of time, energy, and mind.
you have to be patient and spirit to get it.

What have you bought with Bitcoin? Is it easy? And how can I do it right?

Digital stuff, mostly. Like domain names, hosting, Steam wallet and items, mobile top-up, etc. Yes, it's so convenient and easy. But right now I would think twice before using Bitcoin to buy those things. The fee for each transaction is quite expensive currently, reaching as high as $7-$10 for normal/low size transaction. It's silly to spend $10 in fee when your item price is around the same level. These high fee issue has existed sometime before but now it's getting serious and annoying. Combination of the number of tx stuck in the mempool + Bitcoin crazy high price caused this.  Lets hope that future implementation could scale Bitcoin up and fixes this issue.

I remember that I used regularly buy mobile top-up ($0.5 and $1 increment usually) using Bitcoin back in the days. The tx fee was only BTC0.0001 and at that time it was only worth around 5 cents. Right now it's just not logical anymore to do small top-up using Bitcoin.

How to do it right? Get some BTC, order something, send BTC. Done. As simple as that. You should try it to understand how it works on customer level.

What have you bought with Bitcoin?

As to material things, I exchange my bitcoin into fiat first, as Bitcoin is still not accepted in stores here at our country. In my 4 months in the crypto world, I already bought many things such as phone, air conditioner and more, I am also able to build a mini store and pay my school tuition fee because of my earnings here at the forum. I also used my BTC to buy ETH, as it is one of the worth to buy with bitcoin, and also prepaid load.

Is it easy? And how can I do it right?

Just sell when the market value is high. And invest again the spare.

Directly with bitcoins I bought some games from steam, few tines Netflix, my try to buy iPhone here was disaster and I was scammed for some bitcoin, many different altcoins, icos, I gamble with my bitcoins.
With money I got from selling bitcoins I bought so many things, in past year list is endless. Bitcoins helped me a lot, and with luck from gambling and some good investments I managed to buy many things for myself, for the house, once I fixed my car with money from bitcoins, I didn't have money it was or to sell bitcoins I have and fox it or to wait almost a month for my next salary.

I used to purchase a lot with Bitcoin until 2015 both from normal markets and from dark markets (not any drugs or other contraband). I have purchased gold bullion coins, US Dollar bank notes, prescription medicines, premium subscription to some websites, hacking services.etc using Bitcoin. But ever since the prices started rising, I stopped spending by BTCs.

I did not buy anything with bitcoin because I'm optimistic about the future of bitcoin, so I do not want to use my bitcoin right now, and I'm going to invest bitcoin for a long time. Smiley

Here in the Philippines we have a wallet that we can use to pay Bills, Tuition fee and Buy prepaid load etc. and it has a mini exchange "Philippine Peso to Bitcoin". It does have some advantages and disadvantages when it comes to getting your Bitcoin to fiat. My First Bitcoin purchase is a Full dinner at a local restaurant here in the philippines.

there is a small online shop (gardening stuffs) here that accept BTC as payment, transaction went smooth and without any issue.
Was surprisingly amazed when i've found they added BTC as for of payment, it was easy and fast, i would really like more and more shops to accept BTC, it would speed up everything!
On the other hand, when i can't pay directly with BTC i just convert some into fiat and pay with paypal, easy peasy!

None so far, but I convert it to fiat to by some stuff. So ideally, I'm still buying stuff with bitcoin indirectly. This kind of adoption would be rocking hard when lightning is already implemented. I'd recommend people to talk to your wallet provider to adopt segwit as a start.

Never bought anything using Bitcoin itself, but bought a lot of things after converting it to fiat. The biggest thing i bought with bitcoins was a bike before a year or so. That was the first time when i cashed out my bitcoins for the only reason, to buy a bike for myself and i was so happy to do so. It feels so nice when you buy something for yourself for the first time, with your own money. It was the first time for me to earn money as well, and that was because of bitcoin. I can never forget those life changing moments.

Here in my country, there is an exchange that offers a lot of services like paying bills, buying stuff in selected merchants and prepaid loads. I only tried buying prepaid load with my Bitcoins for my internet connection and so far so good. The transaction is so fast because I got the load right after the said transaction. Other than that I bought kitchen appliances for my brother and father but the difference is I sent my Bitcoins to local exchanges then to remittance. In other words I converted my Bitcoins to fiat money there is no local and physical stores in my area to accept Bitcoin payment yet but still that money was from my Bitcoin income most especially payments from signature campaigns. All in all Bitcoin transaction is super fast and easy.
