Bitcoin seems to more or less fulfil money's three main qualities: unit of account, store of wealth and means of exchange.
So far, because of Bitcoin's price volatility, the main cryptocurrency has not functioned very well as a transfer of wealth.
One simply is not quite sure what will one Bitcoin be worth in 1 month time.
However, as more and more institutional money managers like hedge funds, asset management companies, pension companies, insurance companies and endowments invest in Bitcoin, the volatile of Bitcoin will decline as the market for Bitcoin broadens, Bitcoin and crypto become more liquid financial instruments.
Bitcoin's volatility in 7 years time should resemble the volatility of a mid capitalisation technology stock for a tech company with value of let's say 10 billion USD.
