We're getting a good handle on the code, and of course on Bitcoin's function and utility, but what words should we use to describe Bitcoin itself? There has been some debate in other threads [mostly my doing] over how it is like/not like money, cash, dollars, etc. I'd like to start this thread by focusing on the term "money", and play Devil's avocate by asking for your best arguments that Bitcoin IS money.
My legal dictionary states "In usual and ordinary acceptation it [money] means gold, silver, or paper money, used as circulating medium of exchange, and does not embrace notes, bonds, evidences of debt, or other personal or real estate." [cites omitted]
Wikipedia says "Money is any object that is generally accepted as payment for goods and services and repayment of debts in a given country or socio-economic context. The main functions of money are distinguished as: a medium of exchange; a unit of account; a store of value; and, occasionally, a standard of deferred payment." [cited omitted]

I maintain that per these definitions, Bitcoin cannot possibly be described as "money". And further, I think that those who do describe Bitcoin as "money" are doing this community a disservice.

Still people are thinking Bitcoin as a money or medium of exchange, but basically its not. Its a purely commodity. And value of this commodity can be affect by many factors along with its specification.
Bitcoin already have proved its importance, existence and value. So we have to learn what is Bitcoin and what are possibilities of use of Bitcoins in coming future.

This question sounds funny in 2018. It is a digital currency so it definitely is money. You can't use it offline as of now but same thing is with offline currencies. You can't use one country's currency in other (unless you convert).
Bitcoin in many respects fulfills the functions that money should meet. In my opinion, however, it does not fulfill all the functions of money. Therefore, I am reluctant to call him money. I think, however, that money is what money is acceptable. So if in a given transaction someone accepts bitcoin as money, then he performs the function of money for this transaction. However, it is difficult to compare bitcoin with money issued (in the case of Poland) by the NBP.
Bitcoin is an asset and every good things we need to have, and is an a digital currency that is acceptable all over the world and also, we make use of it online buying and selling and more over, bitcoin is more valuable than our local money.
I have done work and got paid in Bitcoin.
I have purchased goods with Bitcoin.
I save money in a wallet like a money piggy bank.
All of the above shows it works like money.

Bitcoin is a digital offline currency. It is not a symbol of any country but it is the world's most valuable asset. Bitcoin values are above all.
I like to think of bitcoin to be cash equivalent not really to be money because people treat bitcoin differently because of its vast uses, for instance, people say bitcoin is stock others call it an asset others simply call it digital money but whatever gives btc is still money because it aids the exchange of goods and services.
bitcoin is the digital currency because of the currency bitcoin for exchange and conventionally, bitcoin has a very different value than other currencies 
anything use in exchange of BTC gold and important is money for instance i think god has really made very few value but since prehistocical ages men have noticed the fact that gold could be used as a medium of exchange is money
