It can't, because the regulation in my country for the use of cryptocurrency is limited but not prohibited.
The use of cryptucrrency on the general public and the layman cannot be directly used but must be through a local Exchange that is exchanged with Fiat beforehand to be made payment of electricity, water and telephone.

Well, in my country, businesses accepting Bitcoin as a form of payment are very limited yet there are merchants and escrow marketers who make trading with Bitcoin (Crypto to fiat and vice versa) much easier. The merchants companies including cofred and eccurrency allows users to pay TV satellite utility bills and also to buy mobile phone airtime.

No, because my country prohibits all payment transactions with cryptocurrencies. They are still discussing: bitcoin is money or commodity, and does not intend to issue a formal rule soon.
However I hope to use my cryptocurrencies soon.

Any transaction of Bitcoin or cryptocurrency is illegal in my country. So there is no scope of giving payment with Bitcoin in my country. We hope in the near future, we may be able to use BTC in different purposes.

Until now, never.
Bitcoin in my country is still not legal as the payment method and I cannot use it for any kinds of payment methods.
USing bitcoin, for now, is only limited for trading and also an investment. Hopefully, it will be soon to make it as payment.

Not yet. The use of Bitcoin as payment is not legal. Well, this country is one of the countries that has not legalized crypto for payment, they are only for investment or digital asset. So now, I personally keep it as an investment.

Yeah, let's count this is a small gift for our children. They will be able to buy pizza with some satoshi from their parents.

I have long been on the Cryptocurrency, starting from mining Bitcoin, Trading and so on.  But I have never used Bitcoin to shop directly, because indeed in my country I have not legalized Bitcoin, so if I want to use Bitcoin to shop, then I exchange Bitcoin to FIAT which applies here first.

For me personally?
Well, s far, using Bitcoin for trading is my most used. I don't use it as a payment method of transaction. Moreover, it is still forbidden in this country. I think that many people also experience this thing.

No, because my country prohibits all payment transactions with cryptocurrencies.
If I ask where you live, it's not good to ask in this forum.  ;D

But what will be asked for me is: you follow us with a Signature Campaign (Hunter) and then the prize is a token that is exchanged with Bitcoin or Ethereum (cryptocurrency).
Then to withdraw money from Bitcoin or Etheruem to Fiat where is it in your country ?
Is there a Fiat Escrow or Exchanger in your country?

In my country, the cryptocurrency has not been legalized yet, but it is not prohibited too, but it is also best not to show openly that you work in the cryptocurrency field and earn money on it, and in general, some months ago I was in Estonia and I with my friends we was using bitcoin machine.

Actually, I really hope that I can use the BTC for payment utility in my country. However, it is still forbidden. Although we can buy some goods on big companies or merchants, I still prefer to use BTC for the only investment.

I actually haven't used it to pay or buy anything in my own country before, probably because it is not yet legalised and so no shop accept it yet. However, I use btc to buy items online in other countries and it's very simple and convenient to use.

Bitcoin is the best idea for online payment systems, this is very easy and fast without any third party, but I haven't felt how to make online payment transactions using BTC, actually it will be the same as we do smartphone purchases using vouchers, but crypto is more transparent because it has blockchain, here are 10 lists of countries that you can visit to pay for your purchases using crypto

Unfortunately, we do not have a well-developed payment process for various services using cryptocurrency, so I have never used Bitcoin to pay, but I look forward to when this happens.

I never use bitcoin in my country for payment because my country is not much advance. But the blockchain industry is not that much old and people don't have much awareness about it but I hope in the upcoming years I can use it for payment purposes in my country also. In my opninon, it will still take 5 more years for this to happen.
Title: Re: Have you actually used bitcoin for any payment in your country?

Not yet until now. It is because the Bitcoin is not legalized as the payment method in this country. It is only legalized as the digital asset and has been put on the regulation. I really hope that someday this crypto is available to be used for any payment method, for certain merchant probably.

Actually, there are some bitcoin coffee shops in my hometown. They accept bitcoin as payment and I paid there some times. But, it's weird using bitcoin to pay for a cup of coffee. I mean a cup of coffee is too small to use bitcoin. Maybe real estate or jewerly is more appropriate. However, bitcoin payment is not legalized in my country yet. I think that when it's legalized, much more types of goods will accept it as a payment method.

So do I, I'm also curious about the utility of the Bitcoin as the payment method, how far and success until now? because personally, I never use it, never apply it as the payment method of any transaction, except only for buying other cryptocurrencies.

Our country Indonesia has not legalized Bitcoin as a legitimate payment tool. So we are not yet able to use Bitcoin directly, must be exchange first with rupiah as a legitimate fiat currency here.

Not yet exactly. If you mean the use if for buying some goods, foods, or others, I don't think it can be in my country. For, Bitcoin is not legalized yet as the payment method. It is only available and legal as the digital asset, for investment and trading. So far, I still use it for that limited things but I really hope it will develop again.

Bitcoin is still forbidden to use as payment tool in our country. But it is allowed for digital investment. As long as it is used not for a payment tool, there is no problem to hold Bitcoin in our country. I think our government still considers Bitcoin and look forward to the improvement in Bitcoin.

I would gladly pay utility bills for an apartment, a telephone with Bitcoin, buy clothes and products with Bitcoin, but unfortunately in our country there is no such possibility, although cryptocurrency is not prohibited. I think a little more time should pass and then such an opportunity will appear in our country.

Making payments using Bitcoin is everyone's dream, in my country Bitcoin can be owned but cannot be used to pay anything.
when government regulations forbid the use of Bitcoin to be used as a means of payment, the government gives freedom for investment, all this is done because the price of Bitcoin is unstable and can make people who are not familiar with Bitcoin will be confused why prices change quickly in the market

Oh sorry brother, I don't use directly bitcoin as payment system because above all replies messages my country's government and banking system are completely opposite of bitcoin and others cryptocurrency. So earning bitcoin is legal but using bitcoin as illegal by government Parliament.

no, because that hasn't been legalized yet. in my country bitcoin can only be used as an investment tool. if you use it other than that, it will be considered illegal. but hopefully in the future there will be new regulations that can make legal bitcoin used for payment tools
