This is one of the disadvantage of bitcoin that's why some country ban using bitcoin. Since we can transact/buy things anonymously if someone buy drugs online, its hard to find the person involve in illegal activities like selling drugs.

For me bitcoin can be use in illegal activity because criminals can use this currency as a trading method. Hackers may be trying to attack multiple bitcoins to steal large amounts of money and money laundering can happen easily. Illegal activities happen easily.

It is not a problem with bitcoin but the people that are using it to do such illegal things. Not just bitcoin but other cryptos. It depends on the person how they want to use bitcoin. This is one of the reason why some governments ban bitcoin on their country.

Once the cryptos are regulated by governments where it get legitimacy, we all will see these things being eliminated. Atleast we know who committed the crime.

This fast growing digital cryptocurrency is being exploited by organised criminals who use Bitcoin cashpoints to launder dirty cash.Bitcoin only exist as lines of computer code and are created and stored online and the surge in value means that criminals who had previously been paid in Bitcoin are seeing their wealth rise astronomically.

From recent news in India it is heard that bitcoins are used to sell drugs..I know its a currency and it is also used as a normal money... but these can create a bad space in people's mind that bitcoins are used to sell drugs..so they will not use bitcoins... Conclusion is that BTC is also a currency which is having a high value in the market..and bitcoins must not be used in these illegal activity which can reduce its usage and value.
Ok.Today we come to the reality that bitcoin can be used for illegal activity, buying and selling drugs, weapons, terrorist funding and also can be for money laundry. But we should remember that not only bitcoin used for that purpose, the current fiat money also can be used widely for the same purpose. Using bitcoin is better and safer because it is more difficult to identify transaction parties involved in it.Here we need Laws and regulations for that case to control it.

the whole world also said this since bitcoin started, even fiat is also used in illegal transactions so i do not see any problems. it depends on the person how they want to use their BTC. Bitcoin has become the most valuable currency. Bitcoin was first used in illegal trade by ransomeware hackers. This news has created a bad impression about bitcoin around the world. Now countries like Australia, USA banned bitcoin for security reasons. Bitcoin or any currency is not entitled to enter into trading, it is the holder of that currency.

It is not the bitcoin's fault whether they use it in legal or illegal way. It is the people's fault if the transactions they made are illegal. I hope there is a way to locate and identify those who use it illegally and punish them accordingly.

BTC has already proven its worth, value and usages. To people who does not know this then it's a pity for them. The issue now is because of  rampant eligal activities which involves bitcoin as the transaction medium.

Bitcoin legal,most of people think bitcoin illegal. Some of people in this world used bitcoin for illegal activity. Most of the people used for their good activity. Bitcoin is more safe then money, it easy and fast for transfer.bad people used bitcoin for drug and other illegal activity,that's so bad.
