I read an article from a well-known Economist who said Bitcoin is an “Imaginary made-up form of currency”. Its worth in “real dollars” fluctuates wildly on the exchanges and cannot be seriously considered a form of money. Real businesses won’t accept it (ever) because it is made up, not backed by any government, and its worth fluctuates too wildly to be used in the real world.
