Title: Is BTC a currency, or a commodity?
Post by: newunit16 on June 11, 2011, 11:51:22 AM
Basically, why are all the new posts talking about bitcoin as if it were a commodity?

Perhaps you should all be discussing how to get BTC to penetrate into the market as a USABLE currency.

Discuss.

BTC is way too volatile at the moment to be used as an actual currency. Once it starts moving a lot less, it can start to be used as a currency.
