Payment means that you transfer SOMEthing.
That is correct.

If there is NOthing transferred then obviously no one is paid their dues.
This is also true.

So, there is no money in Satoshi's creation.
That's false, because money is used to settle transactions and Bitcoin is also used to settle transactions. People find it satisfactory to use a public, decentralized and censorship-resistant ledger to deal with. The units can be defined as space in the ledger even if they don't represent something that is tangible.

If it was meaningless, you could cheat those people electronic pockets. It's just a number that doesn't represent anything, as you put it, but you can't change it. The censorship resistance suddenly proves its usefulness.

@BlackHatCoiner you do know you are arguing with a troll. Just put him on ignore (like all the girls did to him) and he will go away. Sooner or later he will have to leave his moms basement and go to his job of sweeping up the wal-mart parking lot and target his trolling on something else.
