we were discussing money. it’s not narrowly defined by what the US government decrees. it’s a universal phenomenon across all cultures that predates even written records. do you accept barley corn as payment? the answer doesn’t matter because people have used it as money regardless.
And what does that tell you? That maybe those things aren’t legal currency??

Then US Dollar isn’t legal currency everywhere outside of USSA. You can’t just go to shop and buy groceries with it.
It’s exchangeable. Go to a money exchange and see how much your bitcoin is worth.
