hmm, as I know that bitcoin is the cryptocurrency and digital currency, and token is the part of the digital currency, like the ethereum smart contracts we can call it token, but for the ethereum, they are the coin, digital currency or cryptocurrency
It is a common myth that Bitcoin is ruled by a majority of miners. This is not true. Bitcoin miners "vote" on the ordering of transactions, but that's all they do. They can't vote to change the network rules.

Anyone can call it with anything, i really don't care as long as i can make my profits:) Everyone know that the bitcoin is the first and the most important coin or the first digital currency, actually i call it "the father of all coins". But as i say what is the difference? Coin or currency or something else. We need to discuss something more important. Can it be about Mr. Satoshi or the big bitcoin holders?

Unbelievable, someone even called Bitcoin a token? They are completely different things. Tokens can even be considered as the lowest level of crypto. Most tokens don't even have their own main chain. They need to be distributed by Ethereum, EOS, etc., and with Bitcoin is not comparable at all.

It doesnt bother me when they mistakenly call bitcoin a token, but i am bothered when they tokenise it with shitcoin creations. Why would anyone buy ebtc when it is just a pump and dump scam

It's only the ignorant ones that can call bitcoin a token.
A token is a "coin" that is still on ico phase and until it's listed , it remains a token.
Here bitcoin is not on ico phase, it's passed that phase and so it's a coin .

FAQ:
Why is this an issue?
Bitcoin is the proud leader, "tokens" are for the ETH Bubble Game. Calling Bitcoin a token is not even technically correct. That does matter to some people.


``````````````
OP

Popular use of the word "token", in this community, is/was related to "ETH ICO bubble things", not the creation of Satoshi known as Bitcoin.

BTC = Bit COIN not Bit Token
"...bitcoin closed Tuesday at $4,009 per token — twice its price in July..."
https://www.usatoday.com/story/tech/news/2017/09/21/bitcoin-buyers-libertarian-bent-drive-prices-records/594971001/
The above is only one of way too many recent examples in the media.


Are you OK with Bitcoin being called a token?
Do you need to be sent to crypto re-education camp?  Cheesy
no, because bitcoin is still declared digital money.
