Because bitcoin is much better in ever aspect

I am not totally agree with you dude. Not all of aspect bitcoin win. Let's say about acceptable, think in tjis point fiat win as well, because not many stores or merchant accept bitcoin but fiat is more acceptable if we compared with bitcoin. Many stores accept fiat as payment methods dude.

If you purely look at the currency aspect of fiat and Bitcoin, then it's safe to say that fiat is pretty much unbeatable. Especially when you consider that you can transact offline, where with Bitcoin you always need an internet connection to move value from one place to another. Bitcoin's growth nowadays (for me it has been like this since day one) must come from the store of value and investment aspect. That's where Bitcoin is really shining. And it shows as more traditional investors are finding their way to Bitcoin.

Fiat is the universal currency you can use it anywhere in the world without any fear. But Bitcoin is not like that we can not use it efficiently. Only in few countries, the shoppes are accepting, but in many countries, people don't know what Bitcoin is. So I will also prefer fiat currency is the best way to make any payment. Bitcoin is fast and good, but it's illegal money.

Bitcoin is easy to use and transfer to buy online. it's no fee and no tax and it's anomynous.
Payment online is very fast and safer than fiat.

Well yeah but I don't quite agree with you about fast and safer payment. Because the transaction confirmation time is still a bit problem, it's not true to say this. And also, I don't get what you mean by saying that it's safer than fiat, how safe is it or can we even compare bitcoin and fiat money this way?
In international transaction case, bitcoin is much faster than money. You know, if you send some amount of money to someone in other country through bank, imagine how much time you have to spend and I guess the fee is high imo. I think the reason why he think bitcoin is safer, because you dont need to carry fiat with you everywhere.

Investment.
With the price now it answers everything. There will be more of it than this now. They see a lot of space for income without even doing anything. Some do it because they have courage and some are just too lazy.

For me to this day the best use of Bitcoin, in the sens that no solution in the whole world can compete with it or be at the same level, is gambling. Imagine you're burried in debt, you have money problems, you're bank is closely watching your accounts... The only solution to be able to gamble safely is to use Bitcoin. Moreover you'll keep all the profits, unlike when you bet with cash. That's just an exemple but there's probably many more.

I am preferring bitcoin over fiat because there are a lot of benefits to me from bitcoin. I have found a good job with bitcoin because before bitcoin I was unable to take the offers and services because of not having verified paypal. The other benefits are that I can save my money with me securely and at the same time I earn a good income when the price of bitcoin increases.
Yes, I also feel the benefits from bitcoin just like you, I can have a decent income in bitcoin. In addition I can also get a profit from fluctuations in bitcoin. Because bitcoin is always fluctuating, I can earn a profit by just holding bitcoin until prices rise. I like it because it can be used for investment. Besides I also get full control over bitcoin I keep in my wallet, it gives me the freedom to use my bitcoin. Actually, some people do not prefer bitcoin than fiat, but some people choose bitcoin as an alternative to fiat.

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.
Fiat is used for the very same thing, bitcoin is not going to change human nature, people want those products and services and they are going to use anything in order to obtain it. That is not a misuse of bitcoin or any other currency because currency was created to make easier any kind of trade.

Yea, Bitcoin offers a lot of advantages that fiat cannot have. In bitcoin you can do offers or services that pays you in bitcoin and you can easily convert it into fiat while in fiat it will be hard for you to start earning online because most of the sites requires paypal and you need to be verified to cash out big amounts.

Many people prefer bitcoin over fiat is because we are moving towards a cashless society, and bitcoin provides privacy and tamper-proof over the payment. People don't like banks watch over your shoulder on your spending and money transfers.
i think switch to choose bitcoin than fiat not prefer, yes same like you because bitcoin gives many advantages over fiat

I think they prefer it because it makes them able to pay and recieve payments without disclosing their personal information, as well as the fast and easy to use system, I assume a lot of people do not like to show their identities to the gambling and porn sites which might be hacked someday.

It's because bitcoin is genuinely better than fiat. There is no doubt about it. Fiat is centralised and you are essentially placing your entire wealth into the government's hands. You are allowing them to do whatever they want to, whenever they want to. Drop money from a helicopter, even. Inflation in bitcoin is controlled and therefore quite harmless, but with the endless inflation and deflation cycles, fiat is unstable AF and shouldn't be trusted.

Some people prefer bitcoin over fiat because they know the future of bitcoin and they know that in the future everyone will have bitcoin for their businesses and for their other transactions. So if they remain with bitcoin and learn about it and hold their wealth in bitcoin then they will be more wealthy in future.

I am also one of them who prefer bitcoin over fiat and that is not because it is a ease for gambling and porn subscription but it is because I can transact my money to every part of the world and with bitcoin I am connected to every business who use bitcoin as their payments system.

I personally prefer bitcoins over fiat no matter whether they are used by any wrong identities, because when I know I am loyal on my part, I should not fear.
What should we be afraid of while using bitcoins when we have proof of what we used them for?
I use it because the liquidity in price gives me a chance to get things for cheaper, with discounts that we get just because bitcoin is in adapting phase and not too much spread.

I prefer Bitcoin, gold and silver. They're probably the safest ones to go for, especially gold and silver because they exist physically and an energy or internet blackout won't make them vanish. I'd go for one of the three as soon as I get money, I mean I prefer having something that cannot suddenly turn out into a piece of paper overnight if a crisis happens.
