"bitcoin is money" The definition of what is money is extremely subjective. The history of it shows this (not the history saifedean paints). Trying to direct the development to capture a definition of money opens a huge attack vector. It's not different than trying to decide what is spam.
Also what is the difference between the bashers slogan that bitcoin is p2p money and "bitcoin is money" They seem like the same thing?
