After reading a lot of posts made by people on this forum, I realized about 75% of them see Bitcoin as a digital Gold. For me, I don't think Bitcoin is a digital gold. Cryptocurrency or Bitcoin to be precise, was developed to be a safer option for transaction of goods and services and also the best mode of payment. Bitcoin was introduced to disable all the restrictions that banks and the financial system presented. A lot of people have lost huge sums of money because they saw bitcoin as a digital gold. I know others will argue that bitcoin has also made people rich but for me, I don't think it is advisable to consider Bitcoin as a digital gold. Bitcoin is a digital currency.
I will not agree with you that BTC is a currency more than something like gold, it is an asset because most of the txs nowadays is made by speculators and investors rather than people who are buying something.
But in the same time it would not be right to say that BTC is digital gold since there are a lot of digital financial products out there which could be easily described as digital gold.
