money predates governments, and there are vendors who will sell goods for bitcoin.
Money doesn't predate governments, governments have been around since the earliest tribes, and bartering was the most common way to exchange goods until large governments started issuing currency.
And no, there aren't. I can't walk into any store anywhere I have been and buy goods with bitcoin, nor can I use bitcoin on any of the online shops I have ever been to.
you haven't been to every store on earth, nor visited every online vendor.
Yet I have been to thousands, and not a one has taken bitcoin.
Just because some drug dealers like to use it, does not make it real money.
actually, anybody using it as currency makes it money.
Ah, cool. So weed is money. Understood.
