Just wondering how Bitcoin is being treated in the US. Is Bitcoin considered to be currency or legal tender in the US now?
No. But fun fact: in the context of my post, that doesnt matter at all. You cant sell unregistered securities for crates of banana's either, even though thats not considered currency. The key wording in the definition of a security, is that it can be traded for anything of
value. Crates of banana's have value, and so do bitcoins.
The term sale or sell shall include every contract of
sale or disposition of a security or interest in a security, for
value.https://www.sec.gov/about/laws/sa33.pdf
