For me yes, it is a real money which you can live from it.
Bitcoin is becoming so much popular and it will 'replace' a bit the fiat money online.
Because the fees are less and easy to send/receive. I have few friends who lives by selling btc.

There's a consistent theme that I see popping up on here that I find rather fascinating, and that is the way that many posters perceive BTC.
What do I mean? People doing things with BTC that they'd never, ever dream of doing with their dollars - gambling as an 'investment', or gambling at all, pouring coins into bullshit investment schemes run by totally anonymous showers of shit, lending on here to shambolic morons, asking the question 'where do I get free coins?'
Considering how much of a pain up the arse it can be to obtain coins and keep them safe and their future potential, I find it bizarre that there's such an extreme disconnect. I would've thought it should be at the opposite end of the scale but that's clearly not the case for many.
Why do you think this attitude has developed and where do you stand yourself?
i will stand myself at "bitcoin as an Investment" but not like gambling This is more like gold, or other commodities and always thought " BTCitcoin Is real money" |

Bitcoin is real money to me because now it can be used for almost everything easily directly or indirectly.So there is no doubt that Bitcoin is real money but in digital form.

As Bitcoins are currency, more businesses accept them as payment. In fact, some businesses only accept Bitcoin due to the cause that it conducts transactions peer-to-peer. Nothing is confusing with respect to bitcoin. Once you started using it, you will find it's real meaning. |

I'd rather look at bitcoin as the 'stock' of the blockchain tech, but ontopic, yes. It's a way to transfer value - which is likely the essence of money.

I can understand from your post that not only Bitcoin is a real money, but also bitcoin become the source making live many people worldwide. And it's normal noticing the increasing of btc's prices last weeks |

As long as bitcoin can be spent to acquire things or be traded for fiat, it is as good as 'real money'. So for me, yes, it is 'real money'

Yes it is, if you can buy goods and services with bitcoin. Cannot be a real money if it is worthless and no real value.
Yes that is true. Bitcoin is a real money but one can't buy all items and in all places because as of now bitcoin is limited to internet users so only one can buy items or services through online. Normal stores may not accept your bitcoins so even though it is a real money but currently only limited to buy only certain things online. The only thing that Bitcoin is lacking so it is more accepted at a mainstream level and seen as "money" by the average Joe is merchants. The lack of merchants IRL specially. But since we are on the early days, this will eventually start changing. Once people see "Bitcoin accepted here" in every other shop in real life, then they will become curious and learn about it. |

Its easy to attract users who treat btc not a real money to play poker/dice games. but if you treat btc as real, you will tend to purchase something for its value.

You bring up some good points. But just because those points are true, why would people not consider BTC as real money. If someone was to offer me free money for gambling, or if ponzi schemes were out, and I was able to have access to all this free money you better believe I would be using it and doing the exact same stuff I do on BTC. |

So, I did the same things with bitcoin like with my paper money so bitcoin is real money for me Now a days bitcoin debit cards are getting more famous even though it has some fees unlike our ATM cards. With this card you can buy anything or any services like we are using simple ATM cards. So, there is a reason bitcoin is the real money and only difference it can be a investment also. |
