Great, so everyones fake money is still good?

I think so, it's just worth a little less.

As for calling it "fake money"... isn't the vast majority of our money just numbers on a computer somewhere? The only difference is a government says one is valid, and a completely open and transparent program says the other is valid.

Isn't money "real" as long as someone, somewhere is using it in exchange for something else?
