It really depends on who you ask although today, I'm sure 9 out of 10 people out there won't consider it so. Even among finance people, there is a huge disagreement about crypto in general in terms of it being "sound money". That's not a bad thing for a currency less than 10 years old:)
Of course they are going to think bitcoin Is no sound money, they are so used to their earnings, that they know bitcoin is the greatest threat to them in a long time so it is no wonder they don’t want to recognize bitcoin as sound money anytime soon.
Topic: Is Bitcoin Sound Money? - page 37. (Read 28562 times)
I do think that bitcoin is sound money since even though the value either increases or decreases due to supply and demand(like gold). I do like the fact that bitcoin can be transferred faster than gold(depending on where you and the buyer lives). I don't like the fact that sending bitcoins has a fee but I suppose that there is no way around that. I wonder what will happen when the maximum amount of bitcoin has been mined.
In fact the bitcoin is money because some businessman or bitcoin users use it in their business. Furthermore, Bitcoin has a value in the market that you can use in trading and investing. Bitcoin is not like real money that tangible. However; the bitcoin still has value in the market even though it’s not tangible like real money. So I guess that bitcoin is money. 
Bitcoin is not only money but also Gold as well, you can use Bitcoin to pay bills, to send money (online) and also you can store Bitcoin and wait for the price goes up and make money for that (just like Gold)
Yes, I agree with you, we can set examples to make them similar and true, and no, because the biggest difference will be, BTC is intangible and Gold is tangible. Not only that, Gold maybe as of valuable as BTC, but the thing is, this is where the Government's Banks come in. They are the ones controlling the value of Gold thus "centralized", unlike BTC it is "decentralized", many factors affects the change in value of BTC.
Bitcoin is not only money but also Gold as well, you can use Bitcoin to pay bills, to send money (online) and also you can store Bitcoin and wait for the price goes up and make money for that (just like Gold)
Bitcoin is sound money because it's been in demand nowadays and popular to investors who really wanted profitable investments. The desirre of earning money through digital currency became a sources of income online, and it is a sustainable income for everybody. Price is rising eventually and we cannot stop that even there's rumors poisoning the mind of the people, but it doesn't affect a lot.
Maybe only one word coin sounds as money, but bitcoin gives opportunity for a lot of new projects and ideas to start up 
I guess it is more like an opportunity than money.
I agree with you . in addition to being a digital currency today, bitcoin can also be used for an investment that is very unusual. The price for investing in bitcoin is huge. With the profit margin gained is quite large. Bitcoin is not just money, it has been transformed into an investment . I guess it is more like an opportunity than money.
The bitcoin vs gold debate has raged on in investment circles since bitcoin has entered mainstream discussion among increasingly interested investors. Gold has been used as a form of currency and trade for thousands of years, and certainly has a track record for reliability and preservation of wealth. However, as the newcomer onto the scene, bitcoin may be the kind of financial and technological breakthrough to to challenge gold as the monetary kingpin.
Early on in its life cycle, seasoned investors began questioning the legitimacy of bitcoin value and debating how such a commodity could hold intrinsic value. What differentiates bitcoin from a mere collectible and what makes it similar to precious metal assets such as gold or silver? Among many circles, especially gold bugs and older-generation investors, bitcoin was not considered a valid investment up until very recently.
Which factors of bitcoin instill this validity of investment?

Bitcoin is sound money as you can convert it in real cash in just 10 minutes in an exchange. If you are in Europe for example you can do so from bitpanda.
Bitcoin is sound as you and only you are in charge of it and it has no central authority to make decisions about it. You are your own bank. In this sense bitcoin is the most sound money that exist out there ( in the internet).

Your first line describes it as an asset which is not the same thing as money. Money implies you are using it directly without exchanging it and for me there are some cases of this but the vast majority of bitcoins are held as an asset and not as money.

I think you misunderstood the concept of Bitcoin overall. Bitcoin is very different from fiat, it is a digital money, in fact fiat money and digital money is not common at all. You're going to ask why? Because it is "decentralized" - meaning no one is controlling bitcoin, and I mean no one. Whilst fiat money, the government's banks controls it.
The reason why you are considering Bitcoin as fiat money is because it is the only way you can get the hands of it. Compare to it as a soft copy document and a hard copy document; seem similar but very different.
still, it is working...
bitcoin is playing the role of money in Japan because Japan government have approved it as a legal currency if every government make it legalised then bitcoin will be as alike as money...

Well from my understanding of sound money it means stable money and judging from the volatility of Bitcoin I don't think it can be considered as sound money because it appreciates and depreciates quite too often due it's lack of central control and regulation.
People that get real comfortable with Bitcoin are usually the ones that lose a bunch of money with Bitcoin since investing more money that they can afford to lose is a wrong method for investing in something that they know nothing about. I kind of wonder how many people know the technical side on Bitcoin instead of just watching the price of it going up or down.
For me it is not sounds money it is sounds of opportunity, because bitcoin giving opportunity to others to have a job especially the unemployed person, also it was opportunity due to more people have invest to online due to they trust on online shop now because of bitcoin.
