People can call bitcoin on names they want. Whatever it is. What's important is  how I treat bitcoin personally. For me it is the most valuable cryptocurrency that I would love to have. And I guess many of bitcoin users wont even care about it too. This is not actually a big deal since we know what really bitcoin is.

Bitcoin is a coin but works like token. sometimes people thinks that coin must have physical form and bitcoin have none, in other hand token, don't have physical form and just a number really like bitcoin, no doubt that people who are not really into crypto world might be confused by this, even many people are also thinking that bitcoin is like mobile phone balance, that's absurd but real.
tbh, im ok with what bitcoin will be called by people, lol.

No matter people gonna to call it whatever they want but main idea is understanding the whole concept beyond bitcoin and other crypto coins.

People have problem acknowledging what bitcoin is right now, a currency or an investment and you come with another idea?
You can call it digital gold or cryptogold or anything else cause it really acts like one but a token is a bit far fetched.

But that won't be a problem.
Before anything else BTC is called bitcoin and 99% of it's users don't give a damn what it is as long as it does it's job.

people can call things whatever they like. they call bitcoin a "revolution", "get rich quick" and "to da moon",... others call it "ponzi", "fraud", "bubble",... and lots of things. none of them change anything about what bitcoin really is.

but it shows how poorly some people are educated. and how poor some of these articles are written by these poorly educated people.

I think it is called Bitcoin for a reason and not a token but I really don't care whatever they call but I would suggest they would just stick to its original name. And for as long as Bitcoins price or value stays the same then I really don't bother about what it will be called.

Are you OK with Bitcoin being called a token?

It doesn't matter to me, those people that don't really know what bitcoin is will it as sort of token. No heart feelings bitcoin will be as is.

Do you need to be sent to crypto re-education camp?  Cheesy

If that is for free then I would be willing to be in there.  Grin

i do not really care about them calling it Token,Precious Metal,Food or whatever.
sometimes they might be misspelled it because of lack of knowledge or differentiation in their view with us.
some of them think it was not a coin but instead it was a token or something like that.
for example look at that media and the publisher Jon Swartz,
based on his past article,seems like it was the first time he created this topic.
and i am really sure he told us that Bitcoin in form of 'Token' because of drama happened in the Chinese.
banning the ICOs based on Ethereum aka Token.

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.
