    All money is “entirely fake”. The only difference is how big the value fluctuations are and to what degree you can exchange it for other currency. Crypto has a big problem with the former and minor problems with the latter, but generally speaking it’s not much less real than, say, the US dollar.

        I’m pretty sure people in the EU can’t pay their taxes in USD either, but it doesn’t mean the US dollar is fake. Or it does mean that it’s fake and all other currencies are also fake.
