Yes bitcoin is like real money to me. I can buy something online and paying online with bitcoin, and i usually gambling with my real money in real life. and now i can use bitcoin for it.
But still the fact remains that bitcoins can only be used online and it's like other online wallets like google play store credits which cannot be used as fiat unless they are sold for fiat cash. It's virtual money only IMO.
I still think bitcoin should remain as an online currency, it is fundamentally a currency designed for the internet world
