Any practical suggestions for how to increase adoption?

I ask local businesses if they accept Bitcoin to further the cause.

Do you use it yourself for buying stuff online with gift cards? Do you get paid in Bitcoin? Do you spend Bitcoin? Are you on a Bitcoin standard?

Spreading awareness starts with us using it.

It's not easy to be on a Bitcoin standard but it's possible for at least 50% of your expenses depending on where you live.

I hardly spend Bitcoin, being honest. That’s partly because of Gresham’s law and partly because there are very few things I want which I can buy using BTC (online voucher availability is very limited in my location).

Do you think that using Bitcoin does more for adoption than evangelizing/educating? If so, can you please explain why?
