    Now you’ve shifted to “not common”.

    The opening line of my comment literally reads:

    Money refers to some token which is commonly accepted as a form of payment

        It’s not though - I can’t pay for my rent with it. And I can’t really buy any physical property with it. Just because someone somewhere did do that, it doesn’t mean I can. I don’t have any cryptocurrency so I can’t actually buy anything with it. Checkmate.

          I can’t pay for my rent with it.

          I linked to an app service created specifically to pay rent with crypto.

          And I can’t really buy any physical property with it.

          You can really buy physical property with crypto. I gave you examples.

          Just because someone somewhere did do that, it doesn’t mean I can.

          Yes you can. All you need is the crypto.

          I don’t have any cryptocurrency so I can’t actually buy anything with it.

          What?

          I don’t have any Japanese Yen so I can’t actually buy anything with it. Therefore Japanese Yen is useless?!?

          No

          Checkmate.

          OK. I’m playing chess with a pigeon.
