There are certainly a lot of casino users that actively use bitcoin at the moment.

I guess This and the blackmarkets are currently the biggest users of bitcoin.

The typical user probably has a General interest in New technology or economics.

and for you Who is the typical bitcoin user?
All sorts of different folks, including: tech savvy people, geeks and nerds, anarchists, entrepreneurs, anyone interested in revolution and technological advancements, freelancers in foreign countries with poor banking facilities (there's billions of people with no access to international banking), investors, daytraders, speculators, and people valuing their privacy and independency.
you forgot to mention the deepnet markets ? typical druggists and illegal weapon suppliers are also into it ...
Oh, well, since 99.9+% of all drug and weapon business takes place in US Dollars and Euros, I didn't consider that area to be really significant. But sure, I guess it works pretty well for that sort of activity too.

I do use Bitcoin everyday. My Bitcoin usage at the moment looks like :

# Buying stuff.
# Receiving payments.
# Storing value.
# Paying people for some coding work, etc.


Yes. Medium of exchange and investment opportunity.
Bitcoin now a days mostly used for online transactions for the alternative to Paypal. Where ever Paypal has played a role or not at all available, there would be a big chances for using bitcoin more effectively.

Who uses it: I do on a regular basis. I earn in bitcoin and pay what I can for in bitcoin. Since getting a debit card that now means that I pay for almost everything in bitcoin.

The typical user: At present people like us but the numbers are growing and its no longer just tech savvy people.

Who doesn't: Way to many still and this does matter as we need more users to drive adoption even further.

All kind of people on all kind of area , however we can't deny the fact that Silk road and deepweb played a big role on Bitcoin growth so bitcoin is actually used in a lot of illegal stuff (less then before with silk road shutdown but still ... )
I myself use it but not that much , I see bitcoin more as an investment for now so I prefer to hold then buy stuff using it & Hopefully that will change in the future .
for what comes to people who don't use it then those would be definitely the banks , even though some banks has shown real interest on Bitcoin like Société General & BNP PARIBAS .

Who doesn't use it?
Old people, bankers, the big audience and general sheeple. The latter mostly due to being ignorant of what Bitcoin is, how it works or why it's important, and equally ignorant of how they're being royally fucked over by their current money system, believing "it just works".

Quote
And why does it matter?
Because it's about time the complete and total power and control over the creation of our money and financial infrastructure is being taken away from a handful of banks, and given back to society.
