Are you OK with Bitcoin being called a token?

[cryptorakibul]

Why is this an issue?
Bitcoin is the proud leader, "tokens" are for the ETH Bubble Game. Calling Bitcoin a token is not even technically correct. That does matter to some people.

OP

Popular use of the word "token", in this community, is/was related to "ETH ICO bubble things", not the creation of Satoshi known as Bitcoin.

BTC = Bit COIN not Bit Token
"...bitcoin closed Tuesday at $4,009 per token — twice its price in July..."

The above is only one of way too many recent examples in the media.

Bitcoin is still Bitcon, it will never be replaced.
although many hardfork results from Bitcoin, such as Bitcoin Cash, Bitcoin Gold, Bitcoin Diamond but they cannot match the quality of Bitcoin.

even now there is a name that is BitToken and that is Altcoins, here is the link: https://www.altcoinstalks.com/index.php?board=153.0

Bitcoin is different from tokens because bitcoin has its own platform. But I am also happy with the number of tokens present in crypto currency. Although there are also many pieces of bitcoin that were born, but I think bitcoin remains the best and popular.

Bitcoin is a coin, not a token. Tokens are created as a result of the initial coin release (ICO) activity on one of the altcoins platforms (91 percent of them on the ethereum platform). Coins are created as a result of separation from bitcoin, using its open source code and transaction history. Therefore, bitcoin as the father of all coins can not be considered  token.

I agree mate. Bitcoin is coin , It is not token. Bitcoin is the king of crypto currency and good coin.

Yes It is true, Bitcoin is the first of crypto currency. It is coin, not tokens.

[Arendra]

For me it doesn't matter if Bitcoin is called a token. Because in fact Bitcoin is the only coin that increases and affects the token market in crypto. Including markets in Altcoin such as Ethereum, EOS, Ripple and others that are still heavily affected by Bitcoin prices in their respective markets.

Many people do not really know the difference between a token and a coin. The bitcoin crypto currency is not a token but the layman does not know that. It does not matter whether is is called a token or a coin matter. Appreciating and using it will help towards a better understanding of the difference.

[benres]

In my opinion their is a strict classification between a token an a coin and if we are a crypto currency enthusiast we should learn the terminologies technically and be knowledgeable on all aspects of the crypto currency space.

[Master107]

What we should suppose to call bitcoin if it is not token? I think being token is not a matter because the whole point is the high value of this token.

No I am not agree, I think bitcoin is the future currency. It is not tokens. It is my opinion.

Frankly, referring to Bitcoin as a token is highly unacceptable. Bitcoin is the king of all digital currencies. Hence the right respect and reference must be accord to it.
