I don't think that nowadays we can call Bitcoin money. May be in some countries like Japan, but not at all. I think it will become money when all countries and banks will accept it.
it is still money for us, even if you cant use it in the outside world you are still able to spend your bitcoin or what we so called virtual money or the bitcoin. its the most important thing as long as you can use it to purchase things or anything even through internet it is called money.
