It depends upon your needs, I know you can't go to buy vegetables or fruits with Bitcoin that will be quite difficult but if you need to send money to different country where Bitcoin is acceptable then I can't find any better option than Bitcoin. Bitcoin has helped to improve long distance payment methods removing bank from interfering and making payments across international borders very quick.
this is true i still remember when paypal disabled my account with out any reason with 2k inside and got it back after 90 days. This freedom of complete control is what make me interested in bitcoin first place
