The most benefit that I'm feel is I can send money to my family on Australia with the most cheap fee compare when I'm using western union
Also when my sister send money to another country, bitcoin provide faster payment speed

bitcoin is best payment procesor to send and receive money from other country, the fee is very cheap if we compare it with other payment processor like paypal, western union etc.

Bitcoin transactions don't count how far you sent your bitcoin, because of that we can send our money to many countries with cheap fee transaction. Around some days ago i make a transactions and the fee of transactions only take 0.0002 bitcoin. Even one month ago the transaction only take 0.0001 btc.

I don't see why "cheapest, fastest, most secure" is not enough? I have saved hundreds of dollars in fees.

Say i buy an Oz. of gold from Amagi (or whoever). It is $1350.58 if I used a credit card. If I instead use bitcoin I pay only $1311.37.

Just checked the website. No discount for BTC, I call shenanigans Sad

And Amagi Metals is known for shady business practices (quick bitcointalk search shows this https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/is-amagi-metals-a-scam-1456781 as second result), so you buy with $1311.37 worth of BTC & get a brick in the mail 3 months later, SFYL. With CC? No prob, get your money back

Nowadays customers can buy almost anything using bitcoin. For example they can buy Ads for their site and pay for it in bitcoin.

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?

Since when you dont pay fee's with credit/debit card?

Since I started using them.

Quote

First, the store pay taxes to use this service(to get a credit/debit card terminal).

Since when did the store become a customer? Since when did I start caring about the store's expenses?

Quote

second, The customer pay a lot of taxes to use all bank services, this include the card(visa/master card dont taxe you, but they taxe the bank and the bank taxe you).

What third world shithole are you from? Here in US, I pay exactly no taxes for the bank services. Last time I got a bill from my bank for using their services was never.

Quote

third, a few bitcoin wallets dont taxe you when send/receiving bitcoins... the only problem would be the time to confirm a transaction... maybe some day the solve that.

None of the bitcoin wallets "taxe you." Ir, rather, none tax me. You sure we're using the same bitcoin?

Quote

There are a lot other reasons to prefer bitcoin.. but most of it are personal. I prefer, maybe you dont.

Buying CP or paying too much for drugs is about all I can think of Undecided

It would be nice if there will be more costumers that is going to use Bitcoin and that is to make Bitcoin also more popular and that would be perfect.
But you never know of course what is going to happen with Bitcoin and that would be a problem.

If I pay with a credit card the seller has to wait for verification to send with confidence. If I pay with bitcoin the money is theirs within an hour and they know it can't be clawed back.

If I pay with credit card I must expose all the information needed to steal from me. If I pay with BTC the seller does not even know who paid. Which is no big deal for them.

The problem is still why it should be better for the merchant, not the seller. I imagine most of the merchants would need to convert the bitcoins back to fiat, and that would have a fee, which could be higher than visa's or mastercard's fee. On the other hand it would be profitable if the merchant is able to buy the products he sells directly in bitcoins.

cheap? I pay ZERO fees when I am using my card, it's instant and "secure" enough (nothing is secure on internet).

the seller doesn't have to wait. if it's a merchant, he can get the money from bank same day or next day.
yes, you "expose" the information BUT you can make chargeback while with bitcoin you can say "bye bye" to your funds.

BTC wasn't made as a payment system. first, it's limited as volume of coins and second, it's hard to be understood by the normal people.

OP said nice thing, but he have credit card accepted everywhere I for example can't use mine. So for me things are much easier with btc.
And there is other benefits from btc, for example gambling. You can't find that kind promotions in other currencies. Long live btc.

The main reason why costumers uses bitcoins are for things they can buy on the internet
especially things from web shops who uses the bitcoin paying method. Further i don´t know where to use
them in any normal store in my country.

Costumer using it when he/she want to transact anonymously they dont want to know that who he/she is. Because they protecting their own identity , thats the thing that i knew why would customer use bitcoin.

Yeah customer can improve the technology and usage of digital currencies. Only this can be effective when they get interest into it after start using it.

The anonymity of it is now a bonus to me. The gain and small transaction fees are what I care now. Including controlling it as my own and can take it out whenever I profited from it.

Most of the ways of bitcoin is very better for customer, the using of bitcoin is better than credit cards, you have a wallet so save your money, free transactions, easy way of earning and also you can use bitcoin in trading, most the benefit are here in bitcoin for the customer.

It would be nice if there will be more people that is going to use Bitcoin because if people are going to use it more you see also that it becomes more acceptable.
But the only thing that have to chance is the value and that is the problem because we cant control it and that is the problem.

With every opportunity there also comes a threat with it, and people likes bitcon mainly because of the price volatility as they can make some quick profits from it.

Customers should use it because its secure and safe to pay with and its also that no one can see you did the payments, its untraceable and very fast.
