https://bitcoinmagazine.com/articles/south-korean-supreme-court-rules-bitcoin-asset/ I read about this news that in south korea bitcoin is legally become recognizeable as asset. I do think bitcoin is a currency and not an asset. I dont know whether this is good news or not for cryptocurrency. One thing i believe with legalization from goverment i do think more investors will come to invest in bitcoin, but i think if bitcoin become an asset its not as it suppose to because i believe bitcoin should be a currency which is currency is for transaction and asset is not for transaction.
Bitcoin obviously a currency that's why it called cryptocurrency, but for now bitcoin can become asset too, i don't see any problem with that.
People use bitcoin for investment because for now bitcoin price not stable, that why many people prefer using it for investment not for payment.
