Islam supports intrinsic commodities which can be used as currency. That can be paper or can be money but that have to be backed by the commodity which is intrinsic.

according to the opinion of the religious scholars in my country, bitcoin is the same as money because as a means of payment or means of exchange received by the general public, some also refuse because it can not be accepted in the public or other countries.
so in my opinion, bitcoin is like a currency that can be accepted by any religion. because to get bitcion it needs hard work.
That is right, we may consider bitcoin already as a currency since you can always do transact just like currency or fiat can do, the thing is that it is just not known or legal yet so in public or in the eyes of the law it is not a currency.

Yes it is true that all currencies are not considered as money until it is covered by silver, gold or any other kind of assets. So the scholars in Islam do not actually recognize bitcoin as money

So far I am concerned bitcoin is more halal in Islam due to the way it is being originated and the reason for being halal is it is not based on debt rather it is based on proof of work.

I have some friends who are Muslim but they also acquire bitcoin. Many of them in their belief that they did not defy their religion since digital currency is not gold or silver. Bitcoin is being mined and can be acquired through hardship and effort.

There is a different opinion about whether Bitcoin money is in the eyes of Islam. Islamic scholars believe that this is not the meaning because it can not be wrapped by gold silver or any other metal material. Although many of the Muslim scholars do not know about Bitcoin.

According to Islamic scholars and Hadiths, the currency you are using should have the feature to be backed by any asset like gold, silver, diamond etc. In this case, Bitcoin is not backed by any of the assets neither it has a physical form which makes it unacceptable as a currency in Islam.

No, Islam does not accept Bitcoin or and cryptocurrency that is not backed by a real time asset. There is no point in sugarcoating it. Islam is very strict about economic policies it has conveyed to people and to maintain those, there has to be physical prove of the currency we are using to trade or exchange.

An interesting question is whether Bitcoin is money according to Islam.
Is it really more of a religious significance since it is some unique to the present age of human development?Anything that can used as a means of payment is money
