Bitcoin is real money, you can buy things with bitcoins and you can sell and receive bitcoins. I understand your point of view, but there are people that invest with dollars to ponzi schemes too, and ones that lost its dollars in gambling.

Bitcoin is definitely real money to me. Like Raimonn said, you can buy and sell things using Bitcoin. But I don't know about the last thing he said. How do people invest fiat in ponzi schemes. I haven't seen anything like that before.
you can seen many ponzi scheme in outside like "MMM" did you know that?
I have not been able to use bitcoin to purchase goods with offline Sad

All my life economies are in the Bitcoin network ... so yes, i trust more Bitcoin than FIAT system.
And i have read 3 months before done this.

Bitcoin win in all strategies ... because, like a P2P system, it is attached by "nothing" (controlled by the majority, not by a few people like the banks and the state).

I just withdraw 20 dollars so it is real money. Used it for buying my usb otg and my micro sd card. Now I am even happier that I got to know bitcoin with my early life.  Grin

Yes if you can convert your btc to fiat then its a real money, if you can purchase any product using bitcoins as a mode of payment then its a real money, if bitcoins is taking care of your basic needs, your basic expenses then its a real money and that is the same case with all the bitcoins users who are using bitcoins since a long time regardless where you are using it for online purchases, online transfers or converting it to fiat.

The only difference that Bitcoin has in relation to fiat currency is that fiat is backed up by goverments and something valuable whereas Bitcoin is not backup by anything but yet it has proven to be real money like the traditional paper money we are used to spend.  Grin

why don you ask is dollar money to you ?

if they are no trust on the dollar or watever it just a paper .
if you're comparing with the dollar of course it will be different
the dollar has a very long history
the dollar is not an ordinary paper it will always be valuable


And maybe then the dollar would evolve and be sort of like Bitcoin in a digital form but backed up by the US Government. Or it could be the case that Bitcoin could become the world's reserve currency. Other than that, no matter if it is Bitcoin or the dollar, they would have no real value unless there is usability and backed up with something. But ues, Bitcoin can also be considered as real money. Just my opinion.  Cheesy

The future is cashless as has been pointed out before by a lot of people already that know how to look long term, and it will not be pretty.. it will be a controlled asset, so it cant be Bitcoin, unless we let them centralize its nodes.

Wow, i would not put all my savings in bitcoin, despite it's features. It's never a good thing to put all your money in 1 place.

However bitcoin certainly deserves a 30-40% of a portfolio in my opinion, because it can serve for many purposes while gold & silver can easily be confiscated despite being more durable.

because the dollar has somehow a fixed value and the market is not deciding everything about it, like it happen in bitcoin

with bitcoin is so random and always will be because it is decided by the people how much it is worth

yes dollar is very diff, however, i do believe bitcoin has value in it. so that is why i am putting my real dollar in exchange for bitcoin. given enough time and development, bticoin too will hopeful be stable enough to be accepted by many people.

Doesnt have to be stable to become widely used, however regardless it will get stable after a while if more people use it.

You can not say it is not money because it is digital.It is real money for me because I can use it just like traditional money to complete my purchasing directly or indirectly at this point.
usually we only know the money is piece of paper or coins
but bitcoin is the currency of the future then that is a digital

I consider it money and I have earned and spent bitcoin online.  Specifically, I consider it an "internet currency" that is not backed by the "full faith" of a government.

Yes it's real money
If you not believe it, you can send your bitcoin to my address Tongue
Bitcoins is a real money and everyone here love Bitcoins for its value and day by day its demand is increasing the rates. We can buy or sell for any kind of goods with Bitcoins

perhaps all the bitcoin people will certainly mention that bitcoin is real money you can buy stuff with bitcoin but how with the common people ?

Definitely is real to me, although it's not physical.

That is right. People wants something that can be seen and felt that is why they keep rejecting bitcoin because there is nothing physical with  it. They think it is just a game money.
