Bitcoin is virtual currency.

bitcoin is not virtual, it is pretty real. please stop using that word for bitcoin.
this topic has some good arguments against these types of words being used to describe bitcoin, I suggest giving it a read: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1733918.0
Digital and virtual is just the same but people do use it seems like a real currency.If we do read the white paper of bitcoin we could really see that it is created for peer to peer transaction without any 3rd party involved.On the given link Op could really learned from that more regarding into bitcoin.

I disagree, although common people said digital and virtual is same form, but obviously it's different, if you do a trade on MT form (for example), you can use virtual money which means in this case the money is just a form for you to learn and it's not real money, just an interface.
So I think people need to change their mind to use a better word.
