Hi, I am a fiction writer doing a story on the darknet/undernet and services paid for using bitcoins.
Could you please take a few moment to help me understand a few things.

I gather activity on the undernet is virtually untraceable, not impossible, but virtually so if using i2p and a VPN.
Is it the same for use of bitcoins when you buy goods or services through the undernet using bitcoins - are they
less traceable than a credit card, for example?
Thanks for any information you can offer. Undecided

Bitcoin banned by gov on that list country but it still many people on that country using bitcoin.
Whatever you do to ban bitcoin, bitcoin never die.

True but if governments declare that using bitcoins is illegal in a nation then it becomes hard for people to accept/spend/trade it easily and thus the adoption will be less in those countries.

No mate that's not possible, govt. will never support bitcoins and never allow bitcoin to get on the mainstream, that's true that its easy and convenient to use but different people thinks differently.

As for me, I still cannot understand how they are going to ban Bitcoin. Who knows I am using it? Provider? No. The bank? No. What is the regulatory instrument for this?

The government could ban the BTC but, for real, they can't do it.

I mean, even that Bolivia banned it there still being some people using Bitcoins, not in everyday life but using in activities like education and gambling.

Banning bitcoin can prevent official ways of distribution, there won't be registered exchanges and other bitcoin services available. But that doesn't mean bitcoin will be shut down.
On the contrary, bitcoin is good when operating in the grey area and banning it will hurt economy of country in the long run because of missed opportunity of tax btc companies.

I think the real value of the bitcoin is comparative value, governments don want to people using bitcoin because the bitcoin shows the mediocrity of the actual governors in fiscal and monetary policy, they are completly irresponsible and btc evidence that

It's sad that it's banned in some countries. It's because of criminals abusing and misusing bitcoin that they are banned

i don't think this is the reason, cirminal use more the local fiat currency than bitcoin, i think it's because the governement don't know how to deal with bitcoin, so the simply way is to ban it for the moment, but they can always change their mind in the future

I think it's also because the governments have no control over it. So they can't just lift the fees of transactions and such.

this is true only if you do not exchange, as long as you exchange for fiat they automatically have contorl over your money, and thus they can tax you easily

I dont think the fact that its going to be banned will change anything of the use of BTC in those countries..
You just... dont tell it everyone anymore..

The media would definitely be regulated for Bitcoin stuff and have to avoid reporting positive things about Bitcoin. Exchanges are likely to be banned to be operating legally in those countries and it would make it harder for users to purchase Bitcoins. Shops would also be unable to accept Bitcoin publicly, only online stores would be able to do it.

When a country bans a currency then it does affect directly bitcoin in this case, because people will not use bitcoin like before because are warned and they should operate illegal.

This is the known effect of underlying technology which has powers to overcome the current systems.Change is not appreciated by the democracies,but all the world need is the change.To grant those,our corrupt government will not give up his selfish powers which would result in the explosion of his black money.In simple words, government of the respective countries would not like to add changes to the systems which will reinvent the wheel.

We have had this topic discussed in several sections of this forum and always the conclusion falls to the the point that the countries don't want to use bitcoins as their corrupt government is scared that they won't be allow to carry on their scams .There are lot of other factors contributing to this ,the one is government wants to keep the individuals in a nation away from technological advancements as they're scared it will make a difference in their opinions.These are the same countries which have banned Facebook as well.

Now I hear that Russia is going to ban it. But it too big of a county too ban so how could it be completely done? China tied to ban it when it was exposed to the public but now their government is trying to work with it.

In Russia there will be official bitcoin ban. That means you won't be able trade or own bitcoin and bitcoin related services or businesses won't be able to exist in Russia, officially.
In reality whoever wants to buy or trade bitcoin can do it. Bitcoin exchanges like BTC-e are prime example that you can sell BTC for Rubles freely.
