To be honest, it makes sense not to spend right now. In the grand scheme ot things there's not much to spend your coins on, and BTC is at a low at the moment and is essentially half what it was worth at its peak. So if you bought in at $1000-ish, it'd be silly to spend now as you'll be losing money, hold for a couple of months and you'll probably be back in profit.
What a nightmare for the inflation based world economy

How can I buy more crap if I must wait for the value to rise? And how can i afford to buy crap if the value rise to fast? I think the value must settle in order to work.
