Faster and easier. No bank needed no verification and documents to fill. No problems but get the bitcoin. And spend it as you wish. You not tied down to any contracts or any bank. Much less fees as well. You save so much money not owyinf for fees all the time.
Lots of places to spend your bitcoins on. You don't have to spend it on those subjects you mentioned
It depends. Maybe in your place there are lot of places but not in mine. It is hard to see a stall with a sign that accepts bitcoin. It is always changing it to hard cash first before you can even spend it. Now, I have just been doing online buying instead of going to the mall.
The same thing with me either there are only few places here in my country where I can use bitcoins and there is no physical store that accepts it.
Good thing that the exchange here is capable for accepting bitcoins by using their service that we are able to buy prepaid load cards.
And as well as paying our monthly dues.
Here in my country also i cannot use bitcoin on any physical store , only thing i can do is convert to fiat currency and use it or i can only recharge my mobile phone, data card and some online services because that is carried on by individual person who wants btc
Maybe one day other shopping websites would want to take in bitcoin as a real currency.
There are many reasons why people would want to use Bitcoin instead of fiat money. Here are a few reasons:
The simplicity of transferring money, even internationally.
The transfers are almost instantaneous, with very small transaction fees, and no documents are needed.
The fees are also low when exchanging with fiat money.
Buyers and sellers can directly pay each other.
There isn't any central bank that can "print" more Bitcoins and devalue it.
It's much more convenient than storing gold.

Bitcoin price is steadily increasing.So people prefer to keep bitcoins. Bitcoins can be sent to any part of world with very low transaction fees. Bitcoin is digital currency which makes you independent of banks for transactions.
More easy for transactions is my considering to use bitcoin over fiat money. Besides that, bitcoin also can use for long term investment, and I like gambling so, when gambling with bitcoin is more secure.
why bitcoin is more secure in gambling? How security issue works in any gambling ? Gambling is a pure luck. Nothing can secure any luck or gambling thing. BUt yes BTC as faster than fiat if you consider to withdraw in cash form. But fiat money transfer is also fast. If you want to transact only from one account to another, even fiat is somehow fast but in case of withdraw you have to depend on some centralized authority.

I did already introducing bitcoin here in my community and guess what? My old friend who is always my companion with my crazy deeds way back then is already using it.
And the fact that he is already in bitcoins for almost 4 years, the thing is that he didn't introduce it to me and he is even an early comer than me.
I learned from him that those people who are preferring to use bitcoins are just quiet and doesn't want to expose themselves.

Government and condition of global economy is not correlate with bitcoin. So if government do wrong decision, bitcoin will not get any effect. Thats why bitcoin is a safe havens such as gold.

to me i think they are giving preference to bitcoin over fiat because bitcoin is a good way of earning money, if you have some good amount of bitcoin and if you simply hold these bitcoin and not going to sell it then its price can be double because the price of bitcoin is continuously increasing.

to me i think most of the people are using bitcoin for investment, because in most of the area bitcoin is not using as currency as bitcoin facilities as currency are not present everywhere therefore they are using it as investment. 
Bitcoin is being used widely in porn sites, gambling and drug dealing sectors. Is that why the btc made for ? I have seen a lot of members in this forum discussing about buying drugs, gambling and enjoying porn with bitcoin. Is not it a misuse of a currency ? Block chain tech is a awesome tech and btc is getting popular. I hate these misuses of precious btc. It hurts me. This will lead into unhealthy society along with unhealthy future generation.
I don't think bitcoin is only made for porn sites, gambling and drug dealing sectors. Nowdays many people using bitcoin for trading, investment and for buying and selling something online. I think people prefer using bitcoin than fiat because it's easy to use, have low fee for each transaction and you can use it for online transaction.
Yup you are right! Why would anyone think that bitcoin is only made for porn purposes only? Or illegal ways, just because it is anonymous doesn't mean that it would only be use in a negative ways the purpose of bitcoin in my opinion would be changing peoples lives and getting many people to innovate and think out of the box by using bitcoin because all negative usage of bitcoin is only 30% or 40% it doesn't reach half the mark of people using it in a possitive way.

Doing some shady activity will make you want to hide your real identity, with the help of bitcoin I can gamble without compelling myself to submit my real information and this is a great benefits of using bitcoin. It's not that I choose between the two because I believe they are both useful, I use fiat or bitcoin depending on the situation.
With the bitcoin there can be done so much more, its easier and can be used almost everywhere on the freaking planet.
I think the reason is not like that, because fiat far more uses than bitcoin mate #imo. for bitcoin is currently only suitable for investment, because bitcoin is not suitable yet for the method of payment. maybe that's the reason people prefer bitcoin because it is more profitable 
More easy for transactions is my considering to use bitcoin over fiat money.
When you talk about transaction it's not only about its easiness, its more about its freedom.No one controls bitcoin, so more freedom to transact. No one can seize your coins, no one can stop your transaction. You do whatever you want with your coins. You are the real "owner" of your coins.
