>By the same logic, why would you (or anyone else) ever spend your Bitcoin if it is increasing in value so quickly?

That's exactly why I spend little as possible on things other than BTC. As a rough estimate, if I buy a good for $PRICE today I'm likely forfeiting around $PRICE*10 in 5-10 years which I would have if I bought BTC instead. Really highlights the opportunity cost of buying goods instead of investing.
