Does make sense spend satoshis/BTCs instead of fiat money?

If yes, please justify when/in which situations.

Spend and replace.

Agree. If necessary. But why spend satoshis if you can use a credit card and postpone a payment for at least 20 days, and even earning miles?

The only justifiable reason to spend satoshis is family/personal emergency and if you don’t have means to use those sats as collateral in a reputable company. Maybe in some Bitcoiners events it’s doable too, but, let’s say do the groceries or travelling around. Why spend the best money (BTC) and save the worst one?

Example: do you imagine an Argentinian saving in pesos and spending a large amount of USDs?

Spend because it will cause other people which are not bitcoiners to slowly consider it as a currency that think that it might be worth keeping around and maybe get to know better, which should slowly increase the circular economy around it.
