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.

In that situation I think, the Bitcoin manager should place a security that will help to avoid hacking and using for crimes of the Bitcoin. I read something about the bitcoin currency it states that it was surely use for crimes which was use by the cybercriminals. To prevent this kind of case we must need to be prepared always and know the different principles to prevent this kind of crimes.

Does this means there was lesser crime when we had cash transactions? Its just creating some negative buzz for bitcoin. There are always two types of people in the world. One who use an investion as a virtue while other use it as a vice. So better be the one who you use it as a virtue. There is just one flaw in bitcoin which is its anonymity which gives rise to such suspicious activities.

LONG time ago 20 years even when bitcoin was not invented cybercrimes in uk was highest!! billions and billions losses even more ,guess so much no-one even have not counted the actual losses!! and there was no bitcoins used at all...only pure cash !
and yes partly its correct since a lot illegal money been loundered in uk specially london...but its only speculation..
and no-one really knows what money and purpose its for only court can find out ,and it is not our right to judge anyone~!

I think it's excessive to associate bitcoin with a criminal act, without a massive criminal bitcoin and where it all depends on a person and our way of thinking, bitcoin is made not a criminal purpose but to improve the economic system.

Criminality is one of the disadvantage of the bitcoin. They said bitcoin is using in the dark web or in the deep web to exchange in some rape,murdering,selling organs and many more. This is the reason why many country doesn't like to accept the bitcoin.

Criminality isn't a feature of Bitcoin and it's not BTC's fault for being used by these criminals for their illegal or shadowy transactions. What made Bitcoin connected for crimes, frauds, scams and the like were due to its feature and not 'Criminality'. Bitcoin is a digital currency that is somehow being used worldwide, it can be send or received by any person in the world without giving personal or confidential information regarding either the sender or receiver. Criminals see through this and took advantage of this feature. However, since the creation of Bitcoin, there are too many illegal activities that is happening throughout the worldwide web. It's just that when Bitcoin arrives, these activities bloom much further.

Always there where the big money there are people who want to quickly and easily earn. Decentralization and anonymity of cryptocurrencies will attract criminals.

Bitcoin is not criminal,criminal also using the bitcoin for their bad things.bitcoin transactions can do with anonymous names,so they are doing scams with bitcoin.

Yes of course using and holding BTC is not crime itself, but we should admit that it is often used for criminal activities, especially for money laundering and buying illegal staff.

They are totally different then each other because bitcoin is a digital currency and it’s here to be use for good things and if someone is using bitcoin for bad things so it’s a very bad news because bitcoin is here to help us I know that bitcoin price is very high and in some countries its price is very high and when they earn from it so then they exchange in their local currency and as result they get a lot of money so bitcoin need to fix this problem.

The inexistence of a control over the currency has been the cause of the unleashing of crime in different parts of the world, that is a fact. But it is something that has been developed since years before with the black market.

every kind of organised criminal is created if the goverment leave knowngly or unknowngly door open for them.
like,unregulated ways, every criminal will bring police state around the world closer and closer.. if those criminals dont taste that
totalitarian police state thierslefes then their kids will feel this very well what their fathers has done Cheesy

and if their fathers did not save enough money for their kids from criminal activities then their kids will be in big trouble..couse there will be no more criminals existing in the future world at all.
but best way to find out for what was exacly purpose to create bitcoins is to ask from person who created bitcoin.

We cannot avoid that to happen. One of the characteristics of Bitcoin is anonymity. That is why it is used in the black market for them to hide their true identity. A problem that we cannot eradicate that easily and will remain an issue as long as anonymity features of Bitcoin is used.

We can see that the bitcoin value is relatively high. This is the bait for cyber criminals to exploit the exploit bitcoin of bitcoin users. You should be more careful to avoid hacker fraud

Before Bitcoin, cash was used in crimes. Doesn't matter what type of currency is used. Crimes will always happen no matter what.

Indeed, criminality is depends on people. Bitcoin is not a crime but some people use Bitcoin for criminality; some people use it for their own sake and they did not want to think the consequences.

do not be generalized, bitcoin holders are not criminals. they still use it for business and investment.
all currency can be used as a crime tool, and I do not like if bitcoin is associated with a source of crime.
