Yeah but it was for speculative trading (and gambling, lots and lots of gambling sites), not for "using it" (to buy goods, exchange value). There is nothing to do with all those cryptocoins other than trading them between each other.

Yes they are, but if that cash only works across casinos (think casino tokens / chips) and nowhere else, would you take it seriously?
