Actuallly we cannot deny the possibility that bitcoin is being used or being linked to criminality. These is one of the reasons why some countries look at bitcoin as a treath to their government. Any other currencies are for sure linked to criminality not only 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.

Criminal Activities are always happening in the world, it is done everyday in our world. And with bitcoin, it is more easy to do some transactions to buy something without knowing who you are and where you are. I think they are not using bitcoin, but they are more like abusing the use of bitcoin

As long as it's provide more positive things in the market I think many people are still want to support cryptocurrency bad people need always find a way to continue their vices but for those good people out there want to share what bitcoin brings positive development in the community they always talked about it.

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.
it can not be denied if bitcoin is widely misused as a crime tool. but we have to go back to see what is bitcoin? A virtual money. 100% of these are wrong perpetrators, not the tools. If we can all use bitcoin well and correctly I do not think there will be any more crimes like this.

I think their is some connection about btc and criminal cases rather their is true and many connections about btc and criminality, because bitcoin has no tax and no fee people wanted to use it in a bad way,and i think that is the other reason why other countries banned bitcoin and that is the biggest disadvantage of btc. It is used for drugs, illegal recruits and other, thats why it is very crucial.

Bitcoin can really increase the criminal rate of a country because you can use cryptocurrency for illegal activities but they are just the same as fiat, the different is just bitcoin is digital and that is the reason why they should not ban bitcoins because it helps poor people to get well in life.

bitcoin and fiat are the same because both currency can be used in illegal activites however bitcoin is the most prefered by criminals because bitcoin is anonymous and transparent. they cant posibly be  caught if they use bitcoin not unlike to fiats that they can easily be traced whenever they used thier credentials and other details such as finger print and face i.d , that is also the reason on why bitcoin recieved a lot of negative feedbacks from the public.

Although in a certain way, crime has always existed in all possible ways, and now bitcoin can be used for malicious purposes because of its anonymity, there are few people compared to big criminals who handle everything necessary to obtain good profits from the BTC. Everything is depends, not in all cases would accept this currency for a crime.

Bitcoin is arguably a novelty that is why regulation enforcement towards crime involving bitcoin has not acquired much focus. So, the criminals can even now check out it. But I'm certain, quicker or later, as the number of crimes involving bitcoin increases, as system lawmakers will take motion by applying new rules to ensnare the criminals.

There will always rise and bad side, because the people who makes the bad side rise, they benefits from it which give the novice who does not know about the good done will make them only see the bad part of the thing made. This is not only in bitcoin, and in technology.

I don't trust that crooks utilize bitcoin. How might they got an enthusiasm for a web administer cash while the majority of fear monger and culprits lean toward money over electronic cash? Be that as it may, at that point I acknowledge there is digital criminal which usually called a programmer. Perhaps their high IQ drives them to utilize digital forms of money because of its secrecy and advancement. Bitcoin open ups the entryway for those offenders to lead administrations through bitcoin. I think this is leeway at any rate some real people bolster bitcoin even they utilized as a part of illicit exercises. It is exceptionally troublesome if online stores and wholesalers just utilize their coins for exchanges.

I heard that a huge amount of narcotics passes through bitcoin and other cryptocurrency.

The vast majority of the drug trade is still conducted using fiat cash. And the major drug cartels around the world have unholy alliances with the banking giants to launder their money. Recently, there was a scandal involving the Mexican drug cartels and the HSBC bank.

We all know, the bitcoin hype started with the darkweb. So yes, many criminals used bitcoin for anonymous transaction to sell and buy ilegal stuff. Thats why bitcoin got so hyped and get such a high price. So trader saw these price trend and start buying bitcoins and trading with it. But you cant say bitcoin encourage criminality. You know what really encourage criminality? Thats people. People are using all kind of stuff for their ilegal activities. So you can not judge the things that are invented for normal people.

criminals and bitcoins are now indispensable as they are made into global issues that cause the price of cryptocurrency to decline. the government should be able to give an emphasis on bitcoin users not to be on the criminal track and to use bitcoin for criminal matters.

It turns out that the dollar is being used by more criminals, most of which have more to do with paper money.

People who use money to pay for drugs, gun smuggling can use bitcoin.

All currencies can commit crimes.

     While Bitcoin is said to be anonymous and decentralized digital currency Bitcoin is truly not having a complete anonymity since the whole history of Bitcoin users transaction is visible to its users so how can we say that Bitcoin can be used for criminal activities. Before the introduction of Bitcoin was there any criminal activities not happened anywhere in this world ? So to my opinion fiat money was used for criminal activities behind the stage so there is no reason for blaming Bitcoin used  for criminal.
