Difference between bitcoin and real money for me is confirmation process as its today. Real money doesnt have this. However, bitcoin always superior and we can make choice to invest.
yes it is true, bitcoin process sometimes, takes hours or days before we can get ur money, while in banks that having a real money, it take only a minute to withdraw it, but for me , i still choose  bitcoins over that real ones.

One should also not forget that bitcoin has many advantages. For example, deflation and anonymity. This is not if you use real money.

Delay in confirmation is not a big deal as you can reduce the transaction time by adding higher fees and you will get your money within few minutes so the only difference between both of them is you cannot hold bitcoins physically in your wallet unlike real money and that is the reason people have less faith in bitcoins as they trust more something that they can hold physically.

I've discovered Bitcoin few days ago, but I am skeptical about few things, why would I invest money in Bitcoins at the end of the day,why would I convert money into Bitcoins?

If I want to buy stocks or invest money I can easily invest with real $. Why would I convert my $ to bitcoins?
If I want to gamble , I can simply gamble on websites that require $ as currency, why would I convert it to bitcoins?
What's the difference between Bitcoins and dolars? What does bitcoin bring to the table that real $ don't, less taxes, more income?

Answer your question:
1. So that you can manage money without having to depend on a particular country, it only depends on supply and demand.
2. I think you can use real money instead of Bitcoin if you use Internet Banking with Visa, but it will not be as popular with Bitcoin as it is today.
3. That's your reason, I do not know what the purpose of this question is ...
4. Yeah, if you compare the level of anonymous and speed on the internet, real money can not be equal to Bitcoin, especially Bitcoin does not depend on any other country. Your profit will up more every year if you are a Bitcoin investor (more and more people use the increased value - similar to gold)

I think it can help you, welcome to Bitcointalk Forum and Bitcoin Community

Real money doesn't have confirmation process or time because you can simply it with an instant for whomever you are transacting. And real money can be spend everywhere because it's the universal medium or currency. Bitcoin is still not yet accepted by most of the society and countries so that's a big difference.

Real currency and bitcoin has lot many differences starting from the controllability. Real money is the base which is quite essential for a perfect economic growth whereas bitcoin as well other digital currencies made the economic development a step ahead with much ease. So when everything goes into further development bitcoin goes mainstream.

So that you can spend the bitcoins when you want to buy things that can be purchased with bitcoins?

Or, if you believe in the long term potential of Bitcoin, then so that you can increase your purchase power as the bitcoins are valued more?

Or, so that you can secure your money with a password and create a backup of your money?

Or, so that you can protect your money from the erosion of inflation caused by the excessive printing of more currency?

If I want to buy stocks or invest money I can easily invest with real $.

Bitcoin is real money.

Why would I convert my $ to bitcoins?

You already asked that.  I already answered it.


If I want to gamble , I can simply gamble on websites that require $ as currency,

If you want to gamble, you can simply gamble on websites that require bitcoins as a currency.  Why would you convert your bitcoins to $?

why would I convert it to bitcoins?

You've now asked that question 3 times.  I've answered it once.  Once is enough.

What's the difference between Bitcoins and dolars?

Here are just a few differences:
  • Bitcoins are an electronic form of money.  Dollars are a physical form of money made of linen.
  • Bitcoins are limited in quantity.  The Federal Reserve can create as many dollars as they want.
  • You can create a backup of your access to bitcoins.  You can't create a backup of your dollars.
  • You can secure your access to your bitcoins with a password and cryptography.  You can't encrypt your dollars.
  • It is much easier to store a large amount of bitcoins.  It can be difficult to securely store a large amount of dollars.
  • You can send bitcoins over the internet.  It is difficult and/or expensive to send dollars over significant distances.

What does bitcoin bring to the table that real $ don't, less taxes, more income?

Bitcoin IS real money.  You've now asked the same question 4 times.  I think you might have a problem with repetition.
This is problem is a lot of interest and questions. I think that each person will have different thoughts about the value of this coin and its potential in the future.however, the bitcoin market is always fluctuating, but if you invest properly then you will get a large source of revenue. Value for money is very high, so the transfer of money into bitcoin will be beneficial to you later.

You know what is the reason why the price of the real money can't fluctuate huge amount like BTC? Real money is centralized and government controls the volume of the money created every day while bitcoin is decentralized and no one can manipulate it so it's price was very volatile since no law are made to control it.

Surprisingly, when a newbie's article gets the attention of everyone, it is discussed continually and there is nothing that can stop it, however, the strange thing is that he's not even online on this forum, but his posts are always of interest.

The real difference between Bitcoin and real money is that real money is known and listed from the IMF. Bitcoin is not real money, people like to treat it as the next Currency of the world though majority of them don’t know why Bitcoin would be placed within that rank if you’d ask them.
Bitcoin is not secure, Bitcoin address could get hacked if the right people know what to do. It’s only a matter of time till a bunch of people start waking up to that fact.

This is cryptography. People knows what to do to crack the private keys using the addresses. But, can they possibly do it? You can save all the addresses together with their private keys in a text file but even if you make a hard drive as big as our planet, the addresses and the private keys won't fit on that file. Remember that the essence of bitcoin is that it's impossible to crack these stuffs. These are all just Mathematical stuffs and people already know it. That's why they made it impossible to crack. It will take millions of years and an unbelievable amount of storage

We may never know until it is too late

Many distinguished people had been claimed something as completely impossible until they were miserably proven wrong ("heavier than air flying machines are impossible"). In this manner, just because Bitcoin is "cryptography", it doesn't mean that it is totally unbreakable and cannot be cracked. The references to a hard drive as big as the Earth are really lame since they are quite in line with many similar claims made in the past like you would need a million horses to drag a freight train or future cities would be filled up with horse manure
tome i think that main and the only difference is that bitcoin is a digital, crypto currency, where as really money is physical currency, we mostly use bitcoin for online shopping etc, while using paper money for buying physical items and stuff.

Well first let me clear Bitcoin is a real money too. You can buy things with bitcoins alone. The OP question should be difference between Bitcoin and paper currency or Fiat Currency, for which the answer is clear .

Yes, Rightly said. For me Bitcoin has a lot more characteristics which local Fiat do not have. It eliminates the need for every country to have a separate country and whole world can be operated on a single currency which makes it zero transfer fee between the movement of currencies between them. This is just one characteristic of bitcoin and there are a lot many of these.

Only difference i can think of right now is that bitcoin cannot be controlled by government.
I agree with you, that is the biggest difference of bitcoin and the real money because bitcoin is decentralized while the real money is centralized so it means that bitcoin cannot be controlled or be dictated by the government or any kind of organization because they can't do that because satoshi nakamoto wants freedom to its users.

True and that is beauty of it. Government trying to take this but with no effect some even creating there own blockchain and currencies but whit no effect so far. Dont know what they wanted with this but fact remain bitcoin will survive and suppress any currency in the world. Are we gonna be live to see it that is something different but fact remain government if they have low cash they print it bitcoin you have to mine.

"real money" is less real than BTC.

"real money" can be rigged, by devaluation, un just laws, legislation, fraud, bad tax regimes, seizure, haircuts, faces capital controls.

BTC cannot.
By definition of the majority of does not know about bitcoin they will not consider it as money, only us who fully adopted the system will understand how valuable it is, so for me I will consider bitcoin as a real money as it gives me an opportunity to grow my funds by just simply holding it.
Real money when stored in the bank will just earn a little interest or sometimes you are the one who will pay the bank if you live in a country that does not give interest, converting it in bitcoin is the best way of treating your savings in fiat.
