The term “Money” is just a regular term brought from the higher class people and allowed the regular people to get brain-washed into thinking that Money means dollar bills/other forms of currency that has no value whatsoever if a big disaster were to happen. I mean you could use banknotes for toilet paper though they have so many germs that it wouldn’t be that smart to do so.

I do not consider gold to be money.  You can't go and buy most goods and services with gold.  Gold is a commodity, dollars are money. Bitcoin is a virtual currency.  It has more in common with paypal than it does with dollars or with gold.  I wouldn't really call it money until it is more widely accepted as payment for goods and services.
i think everything which have value can be consider as gold. people are using gold for a long long time. they invest their money in gold so as  to  save their money. and if we talk about bitcoin, so bitcoin is money because it can be use for shopping, trading and for nay other purpose, but we do not need to convert it to any other currency. we use it directly for buying selling and for anything.

This post began in 2010. It is interesting to see the changes in attitude over 6 or 7 years. Governments rule on what is is according to what benefits them at the time.

Some say money, some say property. It is what is is!


Well if we considere this, it is what it is then Bitcoin is a currency.  from the whitepaper, and definition, Bitcoin is a peer to peer electronic currency.  And now it is being considered as payment method and money by different countries like Japan, Philippines and soon by Australia.  Another good thing with bitcoin is it can be use as store of value too  Tongue

Since Bitcoin is not really accepted as money by other countries by definition that is more like an asset or commodity. So we can say that Bitcoin functions like money and also known as digital currency that is used as a medium of exchange or transactions especially in online world.
Bitcoin for me is money, as long as I can convert it into our currency it is considered for me as money. It maybe used for different aspect of payment like in online, it can also use in other way of services.

Yes bitcoin is a money but it is an electronic money. Actually there are stores that accept Bitcoin as payment just like starbucks they are now accepting bitcoin in change of there products. And I believe soon bitcoin will be accepted on the market it is like a debit electronic money to be used on the market.
yes there is no doubt about bitcon is money and take can be use for purchasing and for so many other purposes, but in present time people are using bitcoin for trading and investment purposes, but in future i am hopeful that we will be able to use bitcoin as for currency purposes.

Yes I agree,  and of course, in fact we should honestly say bitcoin better than money, because its value is on the rise so it looks very favorable.

Anything being used for buying, selling, exchange is a money. Bitcoin is a currency. You can earn in bitcoin, you can buy with bitcoin and sell products and receive bitcoin. Like money in the banks which is mostly digital, btc can be considered as digital money.

it doesn't make sense what you say, bitcoin have nothing to do with paypal, paypal is a trusted tthird party that function as an escrow basically, bitcoin is an untrusted payment system

if you want an example how it would look to have paypal in the bitcoin world, bitcoin is the money paypal is the escrow, bitcoin is no different than electronic cash, i would compare to that, "virtual curreny" is just that...

Yes I agree,  and of course, in fact we should honestly say bitcoin better than money, because its value is on the rise so it looks very favorable.

Yup ,the fact that its value increasing unexpectedly just by holding it is alot better than money or cash.

In other words, Bitcoin works like money but not all considered as a money especially when we look up in the respective laws of our country which defines money in various ways so that's why some consider it as a commodity or asset rather than money.

Bitcoin and fiat have its own characteristics. Of course we know what fiat is and its scopes and limitations so I will focus my lens in Bitcoin. Bitcoin is a cryptocurrency that will really shape the world into a new form together with its edge and potentials.It is decentralize as we know and well distributed to the people all around the world. Its a convenient thing to use and a get away with the old banking system. Also it is impossible to fake a Bitcoin unlike fiat and it is secure. Also the volatility of Bitcoin is what makes its users excite and earn a profit from it. In conclusion, Bitcoin is an opportunity that everyone can grab as long as you have a gadget to connect to internet then you are good to go.

Yeah, bitcoin is better than real money in some instances but not all the time bitcoin is still better than real money because bitcoin is just another payment system and people is just using bitcoin because of its faster and cheaper fees but in terms of daily usage and the common usage will stick to using fiat currencies that we already been using since from the start.

From my perspective, I would like to call it as a money though it's virtual money.
Virtual money is also called money, it can be transferred in to money, it has value. Now a days it's getting powerful currency, Bitcoin itself can be used in selling and buying. So we must say that Bitcoin is a money.

Bitcoin for me is more of a commodity before, but now its becoming similar to money. Specially a country like Japan considered it as legal tender. So you can used it like money itself. But for most of us, to maximize the used of bitcoin, we have to convert to fiat first. So for now, only Japanese people can truly say that bitcoin is now money because its been legalized there.
