And that is a very important distinction that makes the spam debate completely pointless.&#xA;&#xA;Nothing is money, really. We have always only ever had things that can be used as money. The economic use case of a thing is not a first-principles understanding of it. Trying to govern Bitcoin based on a narrow understanding of it will always fail in my view.</html></oembed>
