so I often transact with my friend using bitcoin.
while this perfectly work out for you, I seldomly make make payment in bitcoin else i want to exchange it using p2p and i see the reason to that because maybe in my own locality there are not much businesses that i found accepting bitcoin except for some online purchase, while i may not as well have a number of friends that accept bitcoin as well, i only make use of the investment opportunity in it and perform a p2p exchange when need arises, but in your case OP i think that will help increase more adoption within your locations because if the influence you and your friends have created about using bitcoin for your payment and i hope some to as well develop such within my reach.
