Could you elaborate on whether Bitcoin truly functions as a payment system? Many view it as a digital currency, but does it truly fulfill the functions of a payment system? Does it offer the convenience and security that traditional payment methods do? How widely accepted is it as a means of payment? Are there any limitations or challenges in using Bitcoin for payments? I'm curious to understand how Bitcoin compares to traditional payment systems and whether it truly stands out as a viable alternative.
