We can't really spend bitcoin here in our country that easy since there are a lot of people that still don't know what it is. If we really wanted to use it though, we can buy some shoppee or lazada points out of a local exchange using that bitcoin. It might not be the same as you people using bitcoin directly but, well, I am also using it.

Never knew that was possible. Might be worth to try next time I want to use those e-commerce apps.

I personally spend bitcoin regularly for my cloud and some gaming stuff. I can use fiat too but the fees difference are really high. It also helps if my CC or debit card was not accepted by the merchants, so I can still use their services.

Endless debate as to whether we should spend our bitcoin. Really up to the individuals preference and I'm sure that those who are using it should not regret their decision.

A currency will die if it was not used for its purposes. As mentioned above, if no one use bitcoin, merchants won't care about accepting them. Adoption will stagnate or even worse, slowly die.
