Bitcoin's concept is an alternative payment method which objective is to eliminate the use of credit and debit cards that causes fraud throughout the world wide web. However, due to its volatility in nature, majority of the people that accepts BTC, considered it as a digital commodity or investment in general. Many of the people that involved in this digital currency think of it as an investment rather than a payment method and this is one of the major reason why its value became so high that more people are enticed to enter into the digital coin scene. Altcoins existed due to BTC's blueprint that paved way into the digital market and thus being an alternative option of an asset rather than a currency.

If I will be basing my answer from the definition you have given, my understanding and answer will be literal on what you have given that Bitcoin can only be a currency and not a money because money on its definition is just like in physical manner of being a cash or physical coins just like pennies to be also used in a physical manner. But thinking it in a more complicated manner, Bitcoin can do also be considered as both money and currency since Bitcoin was a coin in virtual reality and can also be a cash if you really thinking of it as it is the one.
