The white paper literally says its supposed to he a digital cash, which is legal tender.
And at least one country has already made if officially legal tender lol
It's not digital cash it's digital gold. It doesn't have a predefined value that can be equated against another currency because its availability is limited, It's not currency it's a commodity.
It will become a currency when mining stops, when there is no more bitcoin being made and the value is set against other currencies that's when it becomes a digital currency, assuming that ever happens.
Wrong. Read the white paper.
Your know of course that what's some random crypto bro thinks about his production is not a basis of reality right. ?
Reality is defined by everyone else.
Lol I think the creator of a concept deserves special treatment in what they created. For example, Darwin's ideas weren't about white supremacy, even if social Darwinists used it to justify eugenetics.
I'm not sure I quite follow the logic there. If I hit you over the head and tell you that it's actually a prescribed medical procedure, you are still being hit over the head.
