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 will choose my bitcoin payments, so why risk using bitcoin because the price is fluctuating, sometimes for the price it was sometimes a disadvantage but that bitcoin always provide convenience wherever we are

Yeah bitcoin is becoming widespread as it covers worldwide but is not used that much. Maybe some prefer bitcoin in spending their money but the problem there is that there is an insuffiscient number of stores who accepts bitcoin since it is just slowly embraced by different countries. But it will really vary on the person who likes to transact whether to use bitcoin or other means. But it would be more likely to be the same faucet but different label.

I will choose fiat or paypal to buy apple, reasons are
- I need reputable site to use my btc, because once payment has been paid i can not dispute that payment
- I still believe in btc will have higher price, because it's difficulty and massive adoption

Digital goods would be the best. I have never ever spent my Bitcoin in real life except converting it to Fiat. My country does not accept Bitcoin and we still have to use Fiat to buy food and daily needs.  Well, we still have to wait for a long long time for Bitcoin to be accpeted all around the world

If I had the option to buy with bitcoins and fiat, right now I would chose to pay with fiat for now. As prices are currently raising so great that having to use it would mean that my money could double it if I had just kept it. But probably, when the world accepts bitcoins and there are plenty of stores and people using it, then probably the prices will stabilize and using it would be a breeze and there is no regret about using it.

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.

As you said, today 1 apple can cost 0.0008 BTC, but tomorrow I can use the same BTC amount to buy 2 or even more apples... So I think it's better to hold Bitcoins even finding a shop accepting it. The expectative of many members of this forum and of many Bitcoin investors is to have Bitcoin rising a lot this year, and I think it's a very real possibility if we look the price at this moment and the price since the beginning of 2017. In my opinion, using BTC now to shopping is a waste of money.

In my case I prefer to use fiat because I have got fiat plenty in my wallet but less bitcoin . that too bitcoin price is rising like anything . So I dont  want to spend my bitcoins .If it was one year back I would have used bitcoins many be. But now definitely a big no. I will start spending bitcoins when its price reach the saturation level.

I am willing to say merchants are still scared to use bitcoin.
Just look at the price and you will see why.  Embarrassed
Just about $1300 beginning at the beginning of the month and now $1231 a week later.
I don't know about you but that would be cutting into their profits if they accepted a delayed order as you know with shops and their ordering of stock is not intheir hands until the customer places the order. Undecided

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.

Right now we are at an interesting time, because even though the price of Bitcoin has increased, most people are still just mining/ hoarding.
There may be room for the price to go up if there is ever mass adoption.
Thats why I think its still prudent to buy and hold at least a coin or two if you can afford to do it.

If I found a shop that's near to my location and they are accepting bitcoin. I will still think about it but I'll buy and use first my fiat for it instead of spending my bitcoins. Since my priority on my coins is for holding it and for investing it that way. But if there's a need to use my bitcoins for that shop and buy something they got that I badly need then I won't have any second thought on it.

I am trading my bitcoins and I earn from doing it. So if ever I will choose between the two, I will spend fiat and store my bitcoin. There will be chance that bitcoin price will be very high and I do not want to regret if I spend it all today. I will reserve my bitcoin for that day.

I didn't buy a thing with bitcoins directly yet. In my places there are not such places that accept bitcoins and that sites that accept bitcoin haven't anything interesting to me or they base somewhere in America and delivery costs huge and it's more profitable to buy in a local store. But in the case of it would be such place I would gladly pay with bitcoin. Bitcoin to me is easy money. Today I make it mostly with commenting only, so I would better spend bitcoins than fiat that I earn on my work, and it's kinda hard money to me.

I always prefer to pay with Paypal, if Paypal is not available nor free returns is offered I don't shop there.

Omline shopping has come a long away and now we buy a lot more than what we intend to keep, so some stuff will always be returned, easy refunds and free returns are mandatory.

Me too. I use PayPal a lot on my online shopping. What I do is I sell my bitcoins for PayPal balance using the buy/sell feature on my coinbase wallet.

I regularly pay for takeaway with Bitcoin through takeaway.com, I've probably spent around 600 euros last year alone.
In the past I've ordered from http://www.beesbros.com/ and http://bitcoinjerky.com/.

This has always been a little bit of concern for me. A majority of people use bitcoin as an investment venture rather than a currency, now the problem from both ends. People don't use bitcoin as currency as not many merchants accept bitcoin, while on the other hand, many merchants don't accept bitcoin because no one spends it. I personally also sometimes hesitate to pay with bitcoin for this reason itself. If i think about it, I bought a VPN subscription about a year ago for 70$ when BTC was $500, so technically according to today's rate i paid more than double for the subscription.
