Chill, bro. Money isn't real. And crypto is even less real.

My point is that you have to exchange the bitcoin for US dollars and therefore bitcoin is not a currency. It's pure speculation.

No your point was, "is it still a thing, are people still buying into it."

The answer is yes, very much so. Your opinion is irrelevant.

OK, my friend. I wish you the best of luck.

Bitcoin literally is a currency. It's typically not a fiat currency, but it can still be exchanged for some goods and services.

I'm not pro crypto or anything, it's just that it's demonstrably false to say crypto isn't real.

What goods and services can you purchase with bitcoin?
