Do people actually use cryptocurrency as currency or just for trading as a commodity?

As said above, Bitcoin is legal tender in El Salvador, and according to expats living there, it's accepted everywhere.
Yes, even at McDonald's where you can get your portion of GMO fake food for some of your Bitcoin.

Ukraine and Brazil have officially announced to make Bitcoin legal tender in their countries as well, and according to rumors a couple of Latin American, Eastern European, and African countries are allegedly (because not officially known yet) planning on doing the same.
Meanwhile, China just banned Bitcoin for the 100th time (without ever unbanning it by the way), EU and the 5 eyes countries have announced to regulate crypto to hell for the 40 billionth time.

So perhaps the answer to your question would be, depends on where you live.

My question was do people actually use it as currency, not if it is legal to do so. Also, being "legal tender" seems counter to the whole idea behind bitcoin.
