I have seen people using Bitcoin in Steam to avoid the problems of credit cards in certain countries, and i have also seen people buying amazon stuff on purse.io due the cheaper prices, other than that, I dont know any other cases of usage.

That's the good thing about in bitcoin, We can use it 24/7, compare to some other currencies. I do believe also that someday the government of each country in the entire world will realize that system of bitcoins could be a better key to their economy if they adopt the system of bitcoins.

What do you mean by compare to other currencies? You mean fiat currencies?

I can use my fiat 24/7. Even holidays I can able to make some withdrawals. Online transfer is instant too.
no matter whether you compare it to fiat or to other cryptos bitcoins will always be the best and it can be used all the time

Can you please stay on topic? Im not talking to you either. It's not the matter of comparison. Im just trying to know what currency he is talking about? There's a lot of thread where you can increase your post count so don't make a shit here.

In my perception or assessment there are many reason why some of the customer using it such as: They can use it for shopping who accepted bitcoin, they can use it for money transfer, they can also use it for billings, they use it for savings, and most of the time for investment and other businesses who adopted bitcoin system.

If we have to take the concern for purely for customers under some merchants, they must consider bitcoin because of the less hassle transaction it can give.

We all want a convenient transaction in any forms of payment we are doing in an online transaction so using bitcoin is really fit for this.
It's not really the case as of yet, considering the issues with transaction confirmation times. Unless that one problem is resolved, then we can take a step further into actually having shops directly accept bitcoin as payment. But by considering a lot of ongoing projects for solving this issue, I am very much sure this is going to be solved very soon either within blockchain enhancement or with third party applications.

Transaction time can be solved by adding some fees. In that case it can be include by alongside with the product retail price so I see that as a case?

Actually 1 confirmation is enough and merchants can already gave the customer needs.

Yes 1 confirmation is more then enough for merchants to deliver the goods to the customers as looking at transaction in their wallet they will be ensure that their payment is not going anywhere.
Especially if they have a shipping address, even if there is some fraud involved with the transaction, they could still sue the buyer.
And yeah, I'm aware that they could also use fake addresses, but that's pretty difficult to do, I think.

One of the great advantages is that BTCs can be transacted within minutes, with very low transaction fees.

Actually bitcoins are much worse than fiat. As long as they are so unstable it will be problematic to use them normally.


I got completely ignored so I try to quote myself:

Maybe this question has already been answered but I can't find it (and honestly I find hard even to follow my own questions).

If I have an ecommerce of computers and I sell "X" at 1000$ everything is fine.
But if I decide that you can buy it with bitcoins, 1.71 bitcoin (todays 1000$), how can I adapt this price to TODAY bitcoin value? Maybe tomorrow it would cost 1.80 and, a week 2.5 bitcoins and months after 0.5 bitcoins.
I would go mad!

If I block the bitcoin alternative if the price goes crazy, wouldn't my business make angry customers?

i see two ways.
1. you could write the price in $ and add "or bitcoin equivalent". then at the check out you show the customer both prices and they can decide.
2. you could use a program that checks the bitcoin price every 5 min and adopts the price then.

I was thinking that too. Using mainly fiat and btc as a substitute.

If one buy a computer at 1000$ and choose to pay with 1.71 btc it's fine. if after 1 week he want his money back because BTC increased his value and, lets say, 1 BTC is 1000$, his refund will be 1 BTC and not 1.71.
If 1000$ is worth 2 BTC, he will have 2 btc instead of 1.71... not good, but I guess this is as far as we can go with this unstability.
Maybe I should convert BTC in fiat daily using some service... need to make some tests.

I agree with you especially for those countries that has a lot of stores that are accepting bitcoins then they are enjoying the use of bitcoin. But for those countries that still has few stores to accept bitcoins, still they can enjoy to use the fast transactions with bitcoin. And I feel sorry for those countries that doesn't have store that accepts bitcoin. I don't know how you are going to say to the person that why would they use bitcoin.
Every problem has its solution and we cannot expect that what a certain country has enjoyed can also be enjoyed by other countries. In the level of adoption bigger countries is more advance than the middle or lower class country so we just have to accept the reality. What matters is we were able to cash out our money and spend it.
thats true and it is impossible to avoid all the problems but it is definitely possible to solve them, people should use bitcoins because it is a perfect currency

If people are aware about the benefits and features attached with bitcoin then they will start using it but the fact in not many are aware about it but in future we will see more people getting into it.

The events often occur in the bitcoin is security. I am sure that all this happened because the user is not too versed in securing their wallets, because I always see that everyone who experienced a hacked always has the security is not good. Just like the case of a company that some past happening, I think that they do not perform the update of security so that they are experiencing such events. Other than that I think there is no problem about bitcoin

I think because it is safier, and maybe faster to pay for something. and of course it is very, very easy to pay with bitcoins, so these are reasons why they should pay with bitcoins
These are some of the main reasons, and the low fee has the potential to attract even more customers.

I came to figure out, why would a consumer/customer use Bitcoins?
You have to pay the 3 cent fee, while you dont have to pay anything when paying with a credit card.

So what is really a benefit for using Bitcoins, customer wise?
i as an consumer would DEFINITELY use bitcoin, its just so much easier to use and pay with bitcoin. only reason i would use credit is if i didnt currently have the money but needed to buy something quick.

And also worth it of your trust..

We know that its easy to use but what about those people who have not even heard about it? Do you expect the same thing from them? The users of bitcoins are too low in compare to fiat currency.
