Well you can buy real things with it, no? So then it is real money.
yeah true, we can buy anything with bitcoin, of course its real money, for anyone who still consider bitcoin is just a commodity like gold, whether gold could be to buy something? answer is nope! But I think gold could also buy something even able to invest, while bitcoin also able to buy something and invest. However bitcoin only be online mostly and they rarely are able to deal directly because it is still a few people who adopt bitcoin.

in the early to know bitcoin, I just thought that bitcoin is something that makes us fooled, and can only be owned by rich people only, but after I studied science about bitcoin finally I found bitcoin same as real money to me, the difference bitcoin exist in a digital world ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Yes i do agree and to me it is same as a real currency since it can be used for online trades and transactions and very convenient and safer to use like credit cards or other currencies.

Yes, bitcoin can be converted to fiat too, so it can take care of our expenses and purchase that we make physically, so if you can buy anything using bitcoin it becomes real.

Yes but not directly with bitcoin, but by converting it to local currency, if we are getting fiat by using bitcoins and if we can buy something using that fiat than it becomes a real currency.

No it is not, because I can't buy anything with it in the local market to buy things.. Its not cash in hand... We can use it just for online transactions, that too many sites are not accepting btc till now. ..

Maybe in your country or location, it is not possible to buy things in the local market with your BTC yet, but there are some places (like in the US) that accept BTC at local shops. But as BTC grows, it will get adopted by more merchants and then we will see the possibility of local stores accepting BTC in most countries. When that day comes, BTC would have become mainstream. BTC makes it the ideal crypto for online transactions. Everything is just a snap. ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif)

That's true but the major issue is I can only use it online and not physically to buy anything from physical shops, but I convert my bitcoins to fiat, which takes care of my purchases, so it is a real money.

If it aint real money to you then why are you still here? Just wasting your time for a Bullsh*t post or just trying to read some more if it is really real or not. The website says it all if you are here you are in to some bitcoin usage or profit.

Bitcoins is definitely real money to me. I think it is real money because it has a value. Without a value it is not real money. But I think for the most people it is real money, you can buy stuff with it and invest, so thats make it real money.

Yes outline bitcoin can be used as an additional income but for the money I do not agree with the original full for bitcoin not yet have a form to purchase directly. But bitcoin can be used for online transactions so that it can replace the function of money as a medium of exchange.

Bitcoin is definitely real money to me. I can buy stuff with it and you can sell it. You can even buy Bitcoins with real money. I think it is for the most people real money. Because people use it a lot for their daily life. You also can buy some food with it.

I disagree, its real money for sure to me, I do a lot of things with it like buying clothes, digital goods and other stuff. Also why should you not consider it as real money you can pay with it and its treated as real money by the most people.

Bitcoin is real money IMO, it can be exchanged for items and services and has a value IMO, it also can be exchanged directly to other currencies and used locally almost everywhere.
