The article begins by stating:
Is it a coincidence that the criminal and terrorist groups in the world, are the main activists and advocates bitcoin? / This virtual currency is not backed by any institution or country and is used to pay illegal transactions.
The VTV write-up then dismisses the opinions of economists and technology experts, professionals who vouch for bitcoin in noting:
“Some media, technology experts and ‘scholar’ economists have come out in recent years to defend the Bitcoins, leaving aside all risks concerning this, not only illegal, but also preferred cybercriminal system…” the article reads, before adding, without a hint of irony “…which facilitates transactions from criminal groups and terrorists, affecting peace, political and economic stability of many countries in the world.”
The article then points fingers at groups with “a subversive air” who are promoting the use of Bitcoin.
