Cryptocurrencies are not legal tender, they have not yet been recognized as a valid form of currency by the Government of India. • Statements 2 and 3 are also Incorrect: Although cheques and demand drafts are often used in banking transactions, they do not fall in the category of fiat money because they can be rejected as the mode of transaction. • Statements 4 and 5 are Correct: Coins and notes are fiat money because the value of the currency notes and coins is derived from the guarantee provided by the Central Government on these items.
