Property exchanged for goods or services in the USA is barter. Barter is taxable and reportable

If that is the case can the vast network of barter clubs  trade bitcoin , now  property/goods in exchange for other  goods and services?

and if we substituted the words "trade dollars" for "virtual currency"  would it change the meaning substantially ( for the usa)
