If Bitcoin is going to take off, you've got to use it. I just talked to a customer service guy at Newegg. He said 'hardly anyone' pays with bitcoin. He said he's only dealt with two orders done in Bitcoin.
If you've got bitcoin, go spend some buying cool shit at Newegg or Overstock. The whole thing will fall apart if Merchants start seeing it as a waste of time.
Don't wait, buy some shit today! What are you - an idiot?
I don't look at bitcoin as a currency.
I compare bitcoin with gold, in that sense it's the digital version of gold. Many people share this view.
You won't see too many people making everyday purchases with gold, just like you aren't seeing massive amounts of people making purchases in bitcoin
Right now cash and credit is still the most user-friendly option for most people
