New Partnership Aims to Clamp Down on Use of Bitcoin for Child Porn

London-based Bitcoin startup Elliptic and the Internet Watch Foundation, a charity that monitors online child sex abuse, will cooperate to clamp down on the use of Bitcoin in online child pornography, Elliptic said on Wednesday.
Bitcoin is a web-based digital currency that relies on complex cryptographic algorithms to move money around quickly and anonymously with no need for a central authority to process transactions. That has made it attractive to a variety of users, including those who want to get around capital controls and those who support a currency that is free from government control for ideological reasons. But it has also attracted drug dealers, arms dealers, and the buyers and sellers of online child pornography.
