then Bitcoin isn't money
Discussion
I've long concluded that's a nominalist debate that does not interest me in the least and cannot change my reasons for buying and holding BTC, or for being of the opinion that there probably may be some use cases for other cryptos that BTC doesn't cover as well.
Fair enough
I don't find it particularly interesting either
But I do think it's true that if it's not money then it's likely just an Institutional investment mechanism for fiat speculators
There is no point having a semantic debate about what is money. Bitcoin is a database of limited edition numbers, that's the closest 'objective' description I have come up with.
