    Cryptocurrency is digital money.

    With money I can pay everyday items. With crypto I can not do that, simple transactions take time and/or cost a lot of money.

      Sure, BTC is not digital money. It is slow, expensive and has no privacy.

      But there are other blockchains that are digital money, transactions are fast, they cost fractions of a cent and keep your privacy. That’s what you need for a digital currency.
