There is no denying that bitcoin is used by anyone including for criminal transactions such as drugs, illegal weapons, money laundering and so on, this is because in just 10 minutes people can make wallets and can be used for bitcoin transactions.
Bitcoin first used in criminality and dark net, and recently coming in mass.
After statements that btc not anonymous will created new full anonymous coins and btc went into the background
Everything is just the rumor about Bitcoin is not really anonymous, but the fact, the criminal used Monero and other anonymous altcoins more than Bitcoin for their crime.After statements that btc not anonymous will created new full anonymous coins and btc went into the background
Maybe, that rumor is true and the criminal know which coin is better than for their crime.

Would you believe that the existence of bitcoin has increased the number of criminality in some countries in the world. This is the issue that was being thrown by the EuroPol and the UK Metropolitan Police. According to them bitcoin has played a huge role on the increasing criminality in their area. They added that a huge number of cybercriminals were using bitcoins in their activities.
This just shows that as bitcoin develops both advantages and disadvantages will tag along.
For me, this is the worst disadvantage of bitcoin. Bitcoin can be used to some illegal transactions in the internet like buying illegal guns, drugs, hiring a hitman and many more that can cause to increase the criminality to some countries in the world that support the idea of bitcoin in their place.Would you believe that the existence of bitcoin has increased the number of criminality in some countries in the world.

because of wrong information and the media the bitcoin's image become worst SO other people think it is use to crimes.
yes it is bitcoin have value and I cant blame them. people uses it for example in money laundering.
or some type of illegal thing.
it is the other side of bitcoin that people do and dont see the true use of coins
of course, all the activities undertaken there must be shortcomings and advantages, examples such as what you explain, but back to ourselves which we want to do ,, but we recommend that we do something fositive just so no one is harmed 
Yes, it is the mode of payment on dark web, since it is decentralize and untraceable. It is the negative side of bitcoin because the identity of transactors are anonymous.
I think Bitcoin will be used less for this in the future, as Artificial intelligence might find ways to find correlating addresses with people. I think Monero and other anon crypto's might take over that job, leaving bitcoin with a cleaner name. People had a different perspective when it comes in using bitcoin and at the same time the way and how they used it.Many people are already gaining their wealth because of btc but some of them use it in criminalities.But why they do that? Maybe because it cannot trace the transaction and easily withdraw the money without knowing whose the reciever or sender thats other people think bitcoin as a scam.
Unfortunately this is inevitable.There will always be those people who will use technology for bad purposes.

it's true that crime is everywhere and even before bitcoin, now they have just a way to pass through and launder money more easily but for that reason criminals will begin to turn to private crypto
Criminality happens anywhere and anytime. It does not require any currency just to happen. So linking bitcoin with criminality that is happening around us is beyond. Yes, bitcoin maybe used for payment in their activities but not necessarily bitcoin is the root of the increase of criminality. Before bitcoin, there were already criminality that is happening in the world, it just upgraded for some uses bitcoin for their transactions. And social media got so much attention on it.

bitcoin are anonymous thats why criminal take the advantage of it for them to be more anonymous, also many people dont want to involve in bitcoin because they think that bitcoin is just for illegal purpose. Well knowledge criminals and Millennial criminal are using bitcoin as payment for every transaction as it is not detected by government and banks. but still there are more criminals that go to old school as it is cover instant/quick and really money. Small time and Big time criminals are expanding their knowledge so they cope up with the new trend.

Like any other technology, Bitcoin has its advantages and disadvantages depends on how it is being utilized by the public. There are a lot of things that can contribute to the rise of criminality nowadays, like internet, dark net among others. But to tag criminality to Bitcoin because of this disadvantage is just too much. Criminality and illegal activities have been around long before Bitcoin so don't use it as a black propaganda against Bitcoin.
i doubt it.
criminal activities were happening even before bitcoin. for example the ransomware that everyone is talking about these days have been around a very long time before bitcoin was created!
and besides since bitcoin doesn't offer real anonymity it can not really help the criminals as much as things like hard cash helps them.
Yes you sir is correct, crimes have been long happening before bitcoin existed. Yes we know that bitcoin has been used for crime before and still being used right now but that doesn't mean it is bitcoins fault. Anything that is good can be also used in evil, should we ban knives because itbis commonly used for crime? No that would be stupid. It's up to the government to do their job. criminal activities were happening even before bitcoin. for example the ransomware that everyone is talking about these days have been around a very long time before bitcoin was created!
and besides since bitcoin doesn't offer real anonymity it can not really help the criminals as much as things like hard cash helps them.
The crime rate has been increasing because of bitcoin it is true because criminals could use it but I think that would always be connected to bitcoin.
Since bitcoin is so easy to use and they could send it everywhere around the world,Bitcoin would always be part of the black market .
How come you say that because of bitcoin the crime rate is increasing? even though bitcoin transaction is anonymous but still the online site needs KYC for security purpose, and you know that all things about money is hot even the real currency so we should not be particular on pointing bitcoin as the one escalating the crime rate. Since bitcoin is so easy to use and they could send it everywhere around the world,Bitcoin would always be part of the black market .
Maybe thats true that some countries believe on that reason. Because thats how the world is balance sometimes can do a good to those people who are jobless and not to do bad things or criminality but some times it can also be reason for them to continue their bad habbit. Because i think they are some people who used to be a Bitcoiner and they are not using their earnings on Good instead they using it on bad things like drugs or Buy anything like Guns that can pushes their limit to do more crimes and that is the reason why because Bitcoin having a bad reputation in every part of this world. So i wish to those who can earn a large amount of bitcoin i hope they will use it on Good things and not to waste on a non sense things.
Bitcoin can be used as a medium to support criminal acts in violation of the law, because in every transaction anonymous folds will only show binary addresses without displaying the identity of the sender and the recipient, this can only be prevented by the provision of legal rules governing bitcoin and its transactions. But so far there are not many countries that have these rules, even most countries block bitcoin.

I do not agree with this opinion. Because crime rates across the country are already very high prior to Bitcoin.

Bitcoin haters are claming that bitcoin is linked to criminality but this is not true for me. Criminality is linked with everything. Not only bitcoin, let's say.
I think everybody knows already that Bitcoin is a decentralized digital currency which means that there is no government involve in it. In addition of being decentralized, transactions made in the blockchain are also completely anonymous since you only have these cryptographic addresses in the whole process. So bitcoin is indeed a perfect tool for criminals to commit crimes because they can easily hide from authorities since their identities are concealed and the transactions are completely anonymous.
