I personally don’t want using Bitcoin for payment because I feel like it is main to be saved for future purposes not to be used just for transactions like the currencies. If everyone who own Bitcoin can just hold Bitcoin or exchange if one want, it will maintain its value even though some people will think that it’s adoption might be slow, but with how people already known Bitcoin, using it to pay bills or to purchase goods can make you pay taxes, it is better to hold on to your Bitcoin and use your fiat for your daily needs.

Using bitcoin for payment is actually nice, especially when you have accumulated enough bitcoin.
Some people actually use bitcoin only for investment purposes they accumulate and hold for a very long time and they don’t use it for any kind of payment, that does not mean that those who are using it for payments are doing the wrong thing.

What makes bitcoin interesting and what will give bitcoin more popularity is if people use it for transaction.
People are being paid through bitcoin in this forum and that is how people use it for other payments also and it has not stopped bitcoin from growing bigger and better.

Bitcoin was not created for a single purpose. The reason why Bitcoin is successful is that people are trying to use it differently than for the purpose for which it was intended. In fact, the governments' opposition to Bitcoin is actually influencing Bitcoin to be used differently. If governments had allowed transactions through Bitcoin, people could have used it to complete daily transactions, but when users are deprived of this opportunity, they consider Bitcoin only as a store of value, which is why people now consider accumulating Bitcoin as the main purpose.

Users can accumulate Bitcoin for a long time and can also sell it when they need it. In the future, Bitcoin can also be allowed to be traded subject to government permission. I think the purpose for which Bitcoin was created has been successful. People have started to trust Bitcoin. freely transactions in the global financial arena are possible only through Bitcoin. Among the main objectives of Bitcoin, peer-to-peer transactions are of great importance. However, people can also use other features for their needs. Above all, the more people gain financial freedom by using Bitcoin and get real benefits from using it, the more Bitcoin's real success will continue to grow.

I am not sure what you mean by this, but if you didn't know, BTC is censorship resistant and permissionless. And as long as you are spending BTC on-chain and not through a custodial or centralized service, e.g an exchange, you do not need the permission of the authorities or any entity to move your coins, you simply use it as you will!

The government also can't be completely discredited because Bitcoin isn't widely used for payments. It's true that government regulations play a role in how people use their Bitcoin. But it also comes down to each holder because they have their own reasons for holding Bitcoin, whether as a long-term investment or for storing value.
Most holders tend to see Bitcoin as an opportunity to make a profit, rather than spending it like a digital currency. It's their right, whether they want to spend it or not; we can't say they're wrong if they prefer to keep their Bitcoin.

So, in the end, whether someone wants to treat it like a digital currency or prefers to hold it is their business. What's important is that Bitcoin continues to function as a decentralized digital currency, and that won't change regardless of government regulations or more people choosing to hold it.

What point you raised, no doubt this is true. But you should also know that this is the beginning of this game.
Government and political leaders around the globe now really know the potential of the crypto space. Which is why they are trying their best to design rules under which they can impose taxes on crypto space users. But the rules are not very advanced yet, and there are still many ways to escape the traditional system, to the best of my knowledge. (DYOR!)

In some countries, governments are ordering exchanges to share users' data with them so that they can also know how much earnings their country residents are making on a monthly or annual basis. Their main intention is what I already told you above, which is the collection of tax from every individual crypto space user. And in this case, exchanges have no other way to say no, because they don't want to face any legal problems or close their service in any country, and this is why, in such cases, they have to compromise with what the government of that country is asking for or ordering them to do.

I agree with you on the part about why people are more into holding their bitcoins instead of spending them, because regardless of the taxes or fees, people nowadays want to make money, and if Bitcoin can allow them to do that since it has a volatile value, then they are not going to miss that opportunity. Bitcoin is not the only asset that has become a store of value or an investment asset, Gold was also once used as a exchange of value or a payment method in ancient times, but nowadays, it is only used either as a store of value or an investment asset apart from it being used for jewelry and such.

When it comes to Satoshi and his purpose behind creating Bitcoin, I think he didn't create Bitcoin to actually become a payment method which people can use to make purchases or pay for their goods and services they are purchasing, but he wanted to give them a system where they can send money to one another without any involvement of a third-party monitoring or controlling everything, which means that if you and I have a deal, we can use Bitcoin for the payment and there will be no risk of us getting inquired for our spendings, etc.

That's exactly the total opposite of their promises they make every time there is election. That is why the government is often called two-faced, because in the end they only stick to their personal goals and interest, not for the people's progress. And using bitcoin as a payment is never an exception, they will do everything to block the adoption of bitcoin, so that people will only focus on traditional fiat, so that the government's corruption will not be stopped.

Totally agree, regulation is becoming a thorn in people's **** and if anyone has tried getting a crypto card.. you will agree with me that it's not as easy as it was back in the day because we now have anti money laundering laws guiding these businesses such that they want source of funds, proof of income and a whole list of requirements which you don't get with fiat and for this reason crypto won't get to it's full potential!
