I hear from many sources that btc is used for trading much more than it is for goods and services; doesn't that make it an asset ??
and is that necessarily a bad thing ?? and what can we do about it as a community ??
Actually those what you have heard are just precisely right in some manner and has been applied in different scenario or time because we all do have different ways of using Bitcoin and even altcoins so the term as an asset or currency varies depending on the usage or what we are trying to imply in doing such thing of using Bitcoin. But actually, Bitcoin can be both played as an asset and at the same time as a currency because it do have the characteristics to be those so at the same manner, Bitcoin can be both a currency or an asset.
