Slowly, but steadily, cryptocurrencies are making their entrance into the world of "real" economy. Like in, you know, being used to buy stuff with it, not only speculate about it.
So now, when somebody asks you: "what can you actually buy with Bitcoin?" you'll have a surprisingly rich pool of options: luxury apartments in Dubai, luxury yachts in US and now, even a house in Northern Ireland.
According to an article published in Belfast Telegraph, a local real-estate company called Hagan Homes will be accepting Bitcoin as a means of payment for one of their houses.
And we're talking serious companies here, since the same article says that:
Hagan Homes recorded a turnover of more than £18 million in 2016/17 and marked its second biggest year of home completions since it was established almost 30 years ago.
So now, that you can buy houses and yachts with Bitcoin, I think it's safe to move forward to more serious stuff, like, you know, stamps and / or fidget spinners :).

we just need more people with an entrepreneurial spirit to run with it and taking the lead in niche areas, and leave everyone else for dust.
will be interesting to see what happens next.

If banking was the right option, big financial crunch of 2007 had not happened that actually created BTC.

Actually, the more trust people have in cryptocurrency, the wider its acceptability. I see people increasingly adopting crypto trading.
My only fear is the elites and governments taking it over sometime because I'm sure they must be strategizing ways to take it over.

To buy stamps with bitcoin the fees need to be a lot lower :-D unless you are buying bulk, the fee right now will probably cost you more than the stamp!

Obviously, I'm joking. The only cryptocurrency you can use to buy stamps now is STEEM: zero transaction fees :)

Did you think about some post banner?
I enjoy your posts, but seeing your profile picture twice (or more) each time is a bit annoying.
You can have a template in which you just change the text, or just one universal banner.

If I am not mistaken, I believe there was a college in the US that was taking payment for schooling in Bitcoin.
So we can add college education as things you can buy with Bitcoin.
The list keeps growing.
In another 6 months, there will be so many uses for cryptocurrency, the naysayers head will spin.

*Bitcoin is slowly getting a wider acceptability and this is absolutely womderful. The interesting part of it is that we not paying 10 000 of it for 2 pizzas but we are paying in the tune of 0. something for luxury apartments. Isn't that amazing?

We're getting closer to that reality by the day and in a faster speed too. Cryptos will replace fiats in a gradual grand style.
The race has already begun.
