Is Bitcoin 'real money' to you?

[bitgolden]

I exchanged my local fiat to bitcoin. I used bitcoin to buy online goods, not difference to fiat. So it is real money.

Yes bitcoin only be used for online shopping only if you want to buy a real need to be exchanged into rupiah currency that can be spent.

Bitcoin might more accurately referred to as online currency 

Yes, Bitcoin deserves to be known as real money or we can say much more than that as it keeps money secure in electronic form and also provides interest (apparently) on it by the way of price fluctuations in currency.

We can use bitcoin to buy things. That is different from other "real money". So I think bitcoin is real money.

Yeah that is right. Some think it is not because they havent tried using it yet outside. They think it is just a money online. Like those games that you can buy premium items with your online money. And thats it for them.

I don't agree with that. Seeing bitcoin as a virtual currency is what they make us believe.
In fact bitcoin is a decentralized currency, which is not controlled by a group of 'developers' or a board and can be used to make actual purchases.

i think it is not legal like real money and it hasnt tax if you increase  your bitcoin but it is similar like a real money you can save it and you can buy someting ...

Well in a Bitcoin has an ingenious means of getting around the legal framework put in place in most countries. 99% of other countries say that citizens can't make a competitor to "x" currency, specifically physical currency. Bitcoin manages to work around that by being a digital currency, and is thus "legal" in most countries.

The other distinct advantage has that other competitors to normal currencies have is that it is decentralized, as you said, so there is no way to shut it down even if it is deemed "illegal".

[richardspeak]

Well its the same as when I saw this documentary where this man went on for over an hour about how our money  is not real and the host asked, 'How much do you have?' He replied '$200' so the host said 'If it's not real, can I have half' to which the answer was 'No I buy things with it'

So if Bitcoin can buy "things" and there is a ledger showing that it is not being printed or copied or counterfeited like fiat currency then it is certainly real money to me!
