Bitcoin was always supposed to be digital cash.  It even says so in the original white paper title.

Where did this myth start that we need to 'let this go'?



No one uses cash at starbucks. It's all phones, credit cards and debit cards. Try and buy a beer on a plane. They don't take cash. So saying it's like digital cash is a little outdated at this point. We're dealing with digital gold.
LOL.  I definitely use cash at Starbucks,  but I realize I'm in the minority here.  I do agree with OP that it is better to use fiat, because I *think* bitcoin is going up.  We're not exactly in the 10,000 btc/pizza era anymore,  but we're still going up.   Why spend digital gold?

Edit: hey, you're a hero member now, congrats!
No, you are wrong! here in my country you can pay to Starbucks using cash, credit card or bitcoin as payment but maybe in your place only digital payment is accepted in the outlet but not here in my place. And moreover, we don't need gold just to use it for spending.
