I hope I can start spending some Bitcoin soon. If Amazon start accepting it, I will start using it there. Holding Bitcoin is good but I don't see much point in a currency if you never use it.

Exactly, sharpshot! I would interpret Satoshi Nakamoto's vision as to create a form of currency, a virtual one, that anyone can easily use to buy his or her needs and wants on a peer-to-peer basis. This was gradually forgotten because the growth of Bitcoin's value was so fast that people began to treat it as an asset. Add to it some issues with transaction fees and confirmation time.
