I think that was Geneva

I get my wages in Fiat which is a major thing as to why I and we all are still
to a very large degree tied into fiat, imagine getting paid in BTC .....

also trying to figure out the amount of satoshi's it cost for a product is also
a bit daunting.

I would like to use my bitcoin for shopping. And also many other places where i can use it .It will be more exiting.and i am desperately waiting for this.
would be very nice if very many online stores that accept bitcoin. well, although not all accept it, but will it be very good. Well, maybe, when you buy something expensive, suddenly, bitcoin prices down, it might be a trading tool, and it's bound to benefit.

Firstly, I have not seen any shop in my country to buy something with bitcoin. But just for example, if i have choice to use both fiat and bitcoin. Than i will prefer to use bitcoin, because now i have no experience to use bitcoin in open market. But only i want to use bitcoin in first time, may be in second time, i don't want to use bitcoin, i will prefer to save bitcoin instead of use.

there are a lot of us demand shop that accepting bitcoin as payment, but from this forum i found out that there are some people unwilling to spend their bitcoin

I think it's okay to spend bitcoin as long as you will replace it quickly Wink. Some merchants also offer Bitcoin discounts. One strategy some people use is to always buy when the price drops. That way there is always a supply of bitcoin coming in.
Yes there is no doubt about this that it will be very much excited to use bitcoin as currency in our local shops, for me i never do so, because here is not a single shop who can accept bitcoin here but i am still hopeful that a time will come when i will be able to use bitcoin as currency in our local shops for shopping.

Actually there is a certain place in Europe that almost all shops in the town are accepting bitcoins in exchange for goods and services. As I can remember there was a post in this forum talking about how it all started and how other local shops joined the group. But hoping that it will also happen to other countries. The only thing we need to do is just wait.

I've long been using bitcoin as a currency, it is simplest for paying things online. I've spent them whether it's price was really cheap or even high. However i feel little bit regret, if i hadn't spent those amounts i would hold much money right now, to be honest i can not deny that bitcoin is best as an investment, so for this reason i would pay that thing with fiat not with bitcoin, i would rather holding than spending them, i would spend them only if i couldn't use fiat, people also predict that bitcoin's price might be hit 2k dollars or even more so it's good for hold them.

Regrets indeed very many experienced by users of the bitcoin earlier, because they now have to accept the fact that the price of the bitcoin is much higher and also very beneficial if they could buy a lot of bitcoin. But it all is not the end of all the struggle and also a desire to achieve, for the future of the bitcoin is very long. It made us have to benefit from related actions and think about bitcoin

In a shop if bitcoin and fiat is accepted, then surely I'll go for fiat. The reason is that fiat has a common value, but bitcoin is not like that. Periodically bitcoin increases in value, so it's been saved as an investment to profit for a long time plan execution.

really good point, until Bitcoin is accepted and used more
it will be difficult to use. Where I am in Ireland in my town
the only place I know that may accept bitcoin is Starbucks
but I dont go to Starbucks!

so my only option at present is to save and maybe purchase goods online!

there are a lot of us demand shop that accepting bitcoin as payment, but from this forum i found out that there are some people unwilling to spend their bitcoin, so I want to asked If you found a shop that accepted bitcoin and fiat as payment, which one will you used?

if you are using bitcoin then maybe today 1 apple is 0.0008 btc , but tomorrow with 0.0008 btc you can buy 2 apples, but if no one used bitcoin for shopping then there won't be any shop that will adopting bitcoin anymore

so what will be you choice?

I preffered to use fiat because for me it is easy to spend. In my country, bitcoin is not totally legalise.If i want to shop using bitcoin,I will transfer it to fiat. If our government allow to use bitcoin for shopping in the future or they create a website that bitcoin directly accepted,i will go for it.

First one can't be atm. These are micropayment, and how we trade with this network delay and fee problem. Bitcoin is no more for micropayment. Meanwhile other blockchain take 10s and fee is cheap.

When it comes to online shopping nowadays, I think Paypal was still the one who is more usable than bitcoin, though there shopping online who accepted bitcoin as mode of payment like amazon, allexpress, and others.

it depends. if I can buy something with fiat, I'll use fiat. however, if the shop selling the thing I want to buy is far, let's say it's abroad, then I will use bitcoin as long as the shop accept bitcoin. because bitcoin is more profitable as investment.

Why do you say that it is more profitable as an investment but you use it to buy things for it. Then you should just use fiat always than spending you bitcoins because as you said it is a more profitable as an investment. This is what I believe too. There is little point in using it, then regret using it because you realize the prices are high by the time you already paid for something using bitcoins.

I mainly use PayPal. Not because I wouldn't want to spend my bitcoins sometimes but I like to shop online and in many shops that I like I can't spend bitcoin. Hope this will change soon and more popular web shops will decide to accept bitcoins as a payment.

Indeed steps that we have to do now is use the bitcoin as a place of investment, because not many bitcoin known by a lot of people but it has been very beneficial in comparison with the existing currency and also compared with other investments. Where the investment is in addition to the bitcoin takes a longer time and have a great risk. But it should be noted, that paypal has a level of security and the policy is pretty strict. So you should be able to do so or does not violate it, if not then your money will be forfeited

if i can have the possibility to use bitcoin i always prefer bitcoin over fiat, transaction are more anonymous, no record on my bank account activity, more privacy

i know that until the value is very high it's better to hold, but it more satisfying to use bitcoin than fiat for me, the fee are also lower than paypal for big bpurchase

paypal eat you 3.5% in fee which is huge if you buy a thing for $400 for example...

In the situation if it would be any shop here that accpet bitcoin I would gladly pay with bitcoin and no matter how I would pay for an apple.
Do you know about psychology of easy money and hard money? (Easy money spended fast and hard money - it's hard for you to spend it so easily) Bitcoin is easy money to me, so in the option that would be shops that accept bitcoin I would pay there with bitcoin. I think that method only would stimulate all bitcoin's economy and would help bitcoin to develop and rise it's price.

Interesting question even I had met a guy who had similar questions regarding using Bitcoins over Fiat. His query was if he accepts the coins and it rises fair and good but what if the value drops, here he shall be a sure shot loos. While if he sticks to Fiat he won't suffer a loss atleast. After having forth and on arguments, I finally convinced him to give it a try, as the price always shoots up and even if it comes down it will shoot up. I wouldnt mind using Bitcoins in the shops saves my Fiat, I am totally in for Bitcoins being used instead of Fiat in shops. I would take two apples for 0.0008 op.

For me more depends to my needs. If today did I need apple albeit with 0.0008 BTC only get 1 apple because I really need it now, though with 0.0008 BTC tomorrow I can get 2 apple. Plus bitcoin also unpredictable dude, it could be if you delay to buy the next day the apple prices can  more expensive and you have to pay more for one apple. thank you
the more you make transaction the more transaction fee is traded. At a point you will consider not purchasing in trickles but large amount to prevent regular delay of payment confirmation and transaction fee

What are the choices?  Huh
Will = future : used = past
If you are trying to make us pick between fiat and bitcoin then I would pick fiat for buying the damn apple.
Merchants can make bitcoin as an option for payment. There will be not much of a buyer if you would only use bitcoin as a means of payment. If you are a businessman you would know this, you would not risk just having one option.
