Bitcoin is just a virtual currency, but it is used as real money to buy many things. There are many people who accept Bitcoin payments for items, including online stores and regular stores. Popular online stores accept Bitcoins including Newegg, Overstock, Microsoft, Dell and more.

In the United States, there are Reeds Jewelers, One Shot Hotels, Holiday Inn, and even pizza locations, restaurants and more. You can even use Bitcoin to buy addictive drugs, gambling, bullion, or even donate to charity. This is the reason why I like BTC.

it seems very nice if all online and offline stores receive payment with bitcoin, so it will be easier to make a sale and purchase transactions. In my country there are no stores that accept payments with bitcoin, so I have to make bitcoin as cash first if I want to shop and take a long time to make it cash so it makes me difficult.

Yes of course specially with its value right now so many things to buy for. But if you don’t need much that things better not to use bitcoin and just hold on it. In my place I can easily use bitcoin to pay for my bills, deposit it direct on my bank accounts, easy cash out and so on.

It's just a matter of time, bitcoin will be so if the legality problem can be solved.

I know the list of what bitcoin can or will be able to purchase is still increasing. By the time Amazon and eBay accepts bitcoin fully, there won't be a barrier as to what bitcoin can get compared with the fiats. We are migrating into the adaptation stage very soon.

yes it is good to hear that btc now more and more is finding acceptance to even in pizza stores, but now the fees are very high so it may not last very long if nothing will be updated.

In fact, Bitcoin becomes a public currency and allows us to buy the stuff in many stores. Futhermore gaming platforms as steam are considering putting Bitcoin as a payment type. Shopping would be even more convenient nowadays and it could bring many positive effects for the economy.I am of the opinion that Bitcoin should become a form of payment in all stores.

yes i can buy anything that i want .. Grin

Actually, there are some store on online and offline started to accept bitcoin and I think it is a good news to all bitcoin users. On the other hand, as of now you can't used your bitcoin to buy all things that you want because there few store that already accept bitcoin as payment of their costumer.

bitcoin is not just as a digital currency and an asset commodity, but one of the goals of bitcoin is as a means of payment, Satoshi thinks that the goal will be easy to realize, but after the world is known, many countries are resisting bitcoin, even against.
but I do not agree if bitcoin is used as a means of payment to buy drugs, crime, and also gambling. it is the state's duty to manage and regulate bitcoin.

Yes, you can actually buy a lot of things in the country where i come from with your bitcoin, especially in shops and big organisations that accepts bitcoin, almost all accepts bitcoin.A lot of people still spend their bitcoin in acquiring valuables, i recently witness a member use his bitcoin to buy some thing very precious that is worth over $500 and that is very important to note. Accepting bitcoin for on line transactions by many countries is still a proof that bitcoin can be use to buy and transact business on line, many people are on daily basis transacting online using bitcoin that is generally accepted for that, so also it be use to buy things as well.

Is it really worth using BTC to buy things when the fees are increasing so much? I wish alts like LTC or DASH would get more adoption!

It may come as a surprise but the world isn't revolving around the USA. I mean it's all fine that there are so many merchants accepting it in your country but here in Europe it's almost impossible to buy something directly with Bitcoin. Even gift cards that you can buy in the US for sites like Amazon.com don't work for Amazon.uk, or Amazon.de. It's a shame Europe is so far behind.

Out of curiosity, how are countries like Switzerland when it comes to accepting Bitcoin? I remember about a year ago there was a ton of hype around some initiatives that the Swiss were taking in order to make their country more accessible to people who were using digital currencies. But I'm personally not surprised that the rest of Europe is so far behind, considering that they're not as interested in cryptos and more interested in trying to maintain the EU, or that's at least the last thing I remember EU countries caring about. I don't know the politics in Europe but it doesn't seem like they're doing anything but trying to salvage their economies.

That's absolutely righ. Fact is that, you can now buy more thing unlike before because the market value of Bitcoin at this moment is way higher than its market price 5 years before. But since its value is expected to be more expensive in the future, you may obviously buy more things from it when its value starts to rise again. And in a line with that, transactions are decentralized so I am hoping that it won't be involved on illegal things.

The beauty of using bitcoin as a payment, is the ability to send it around the world. Everyone is being connected without any middle man.you have your own bank account and you can own your bank account for fee. It was great and cool, using bitcoin as a payment. Just one swipe and there you go.

yes of course you can buy anything with bitcoin
like in this news, you can buy Commercial Japanese Building in Tokyo with bitcoin
https://www.ccn.com/japanese-building-in-tokyo-will-be-sold-at-547-bitcoin/
because purchasing properties through banks will cause a very large fee
so now many realtors have started to accept bitcoin for large-scale payments as well

Valve which offers Steam as their platform to buy games for PC used to accept Bitcoin but due to high fees they removed this option. While you can buy many things with bitcoin you cannot buy PC games anymore with it and that is a minus. There is a whole big international market of gamers which Valve wants to stay out of bitcoin. If bitcoin remains as a payment there even people who don't know bitcoin would see this option when buying games and they would be at least curious to read what it is. This is like closing a door to a wider youthful audience for bitcoin.
