A good currency? None has been invented yet. Currencies become accepted when they are tied to something tangible. Then they are corrupted and inflated out of existence, to be replaced by a new currency with finite amount.
The finite tangible currency becomes adopted rapidly, but then becomes a constraint on economic growth. The 'cross of gold' is an example. Then, the currency becomes inflated and the cycle repeats.
Fractional reserve has the potential to solve many of these issues, but would require rock solid central banking accounting to something tangible. And probably finite, or at least easily quantifiable.
Bitcoin is finite, so pricing things in Bitcoin, creates a 'cross of Bitcoin'. Also, due to its electronic nature, and for the above reasons, Bitcoin requires alternative currencies.

Criterion number 3 seems to be off from one of bitcoin's attributes as it is a constant volatile currency. That's one of the criteria too that make some other people hesitant of using it as its price can go up and down rapidly at an unexpected time.
Makes it impossible to be figured with as harming the market from development. Some online stores have opened to supply garments, staples, hoods, everything accepts bitcoin as a payment method but they will close because I will not buy something to say. 01btc and in a week, I was able to pay 0.00btc for the same product.

Successful currencies meet three criteria:
(1) they are in widespread use as medium of exchange
(2) they serve as unit of account
(3) they are a stable store of value.
Most sovereign currencies fully meet all three criteria.
What about Bitcoin?
Something I have realized is that Bitcoin is actually not a currency. It does have some features of a currency since it is accepted as form of payment in some parts of the world. But Bitcoin being a legit currency, not quite there yet! In order for Bitcoin to become a true currency is for the governments to declare that it is a currency and that it is accepted in every part of the planet. Now this is one requirement that Bitcoin is struggling with. The day may come come that Bitcoin and other digital currencies may be declared as legal currencies. But till that day comes, we should be contented with their current status. (1) they are in widespread use as medium of exchange
(2) they serve as unit of account
(3) they are a stable store of value.
Most sovereign currencies fully meet all three criteria.
What about Bitcoin?
the nuber three is not passed in bitcoin, why? because we can see that bitcoin is the digial currency that don't have the stable price, as we know that the price of bitcoin is always changing the the fast time, its because the user of bitcoin is not much, maybe if all people in this world using bitcoin and have bitcoin the price of bitcoin will stable like the other currency like USD, or Euro
Some online stores have opened to supply garments, staples, hoods, everything accepts bitcoin as a payment method but they will close because I will not buy something to say. At the moment, bitcoin is serving people by investing or should I say the best investment so people make a lot of money and even help poor people like people who can use the internet and computers and unemployment I can not predict the future, but what I feel and know is that the future bitcoin will definitely become the global center of gravity, but it is now widely used. As a means of exchange, transactions.

What about Bitcoin?
In my opinion, currency is something like a consensus decision. When some number of people agree on something that will be a valuable exchange product
bitcoin transfers all this to the Internet space, thanks to the protected technology)
In the sense that you described, it is impossible to "fit" Bitcoins under your definition. He really lacks stability, which stems from the fact that not all countries are accepting it yet. But it is reliable and safe.
can not threaten bitcoin as currency, sorry, that's more an asset to me .. a bit like gold .. so Bitcoin is a gold asset that has a very valuable value.
So far, bitcoin cannot be called a currency, because it is not recognized by the governments of many countries. Yes, now there is an active discussion about the regulation it like a currency, but no one knows how long it will take to create one law for all.

What about Bitcoin?
In display time, bitcoin is serving individuals by being a sort of venture or I should state the best speculation around by which individuals are gaining a considerable measure and has even helped destitute individuals like the individuals who can utilize web and PC and are jobless or finding low paid occupations, so bitcoin has helped these individuals likewise in discovering business, can't anticipate the future yet what I feel and know is that bitcoin in future will unquestionably turn into the focal money universally however for the present it is in boundless use as a medium of trade. (1) they are in widespread use as medium of exchange
(2) they serve as unit of account
(3) they are a stable store of value.

What about Bitcoin?
The reason I'm interested in bitcoin is that it's a marvelous medium of exchange, but a terrible store of value and an even worse unit of account.
One of the most revolutionary things about bitcoin is that it challenges some of our ideas about what is money. For example, why *does* the medium of exchange have to be the unit of account or a store of value.

I will approach bitcoin next.
VALUE which is Intrinsic, It possesses a trusted, believable value

I think bitcoin still does not meet the criteria for being a global currency, because bitcoin still has a weakness to be one currency because bitcoin is unstable, bitcoin is better to be an asset instead of a currency.
At the moment, bitcoin as cryptocurrency is not fully disclosed, as it is illegal in many countries and does not work with governments. Now the world is not yet ready for such a change of currency, therefore it takes some time to make it a working currency.

on criterion number 1 and 2 bitcoin can achieve it only at the last number bitcoin that still can not be fulfilled from three criteria. and for me bitcoin is just a digital currency that can not be equated with all three criteria above. maybe the above reasons can only be used for fiat money (1) they are in widespread use as medium of exchange
(2) they serve as unit of account
(3) they are a stable store of value.
