Does the fluctuating value change how you spend or keep your Bitcoin at all? Do you convert and cash out quickly after every transaction? Haven't come across many on HN who actually use Bitcoin as tokens of exchange.

It does! I tend to use Bitcoin directly when its value is high but I use USD when the value is low, I know it might seem counter-intuitive but that way I get to save on Bitcoin whose value has been increasing. For Bitoin to USD I use online banks like Neteller or AdvCash.
