Quick poll. Let's say you are a long time bitcoin hodler. But, eventually, you want to do something with that value. While it would be 'nice' to make a large purchase directly with bitcoin, does it matter really if it gets converted to fiat to complete the purchase?

For those who think there is something 'wrong' with making your purchase by first converting to fiat, what the heck is your reasoning? You still ow the US government taxes payable in USD anyway.

I guess it goes back to the libertarian/anarchist notion of: state is evil > state uses fiat to support itself > by using fiat you're lending validity to their corrupt system instead of opting out of it and using bitcoin.
