Title: Is Bitcoin a currency or a commodity ? Post by: tontonyaw on May 06, 2013, 08:06:37 AM I live in France and I'm thinking of running a business around Bitcoins. The thing is there are regulatory constraints that have true impact on the way the business should be oriented. If Bitcoin is considered as a currency, then I would have to look towards banks. If it is considered as a commodity, then everything is possible... Thanks for your input.
