Hmm haven't we discussed this to death?

It is not possible for the police or any entity to tell, just by looking the transactions themselves. In fact, without any actual link to evidence, the transactions can't be identified. If the authority can get one of the addresses/transactions involved, they could get the whole link of addresses that are related but that isn't possible all the time and its rather inaccurate and useless.

I agree

I think that this has little to do indeed, bitcoin is a new theme for this and too complicated. But soon this, too, the problem also shows up in this sphere of activity. So be on the alert.

Yes it's true. The unfortunate truth is just that there will always be people out there looking to use anything they can for the wrong reasons. And it will make some people fear crypto yet those people use money for just as bad things as they are using crypto for. Did everyone forget more money is being used for drug purchase than crypto? lol

This is a clear taking advantage of the anonymity property of bitcoin. It is very possible that criminals may use the cryptocurrency platform to commit crimes like plunder and money laundering. This is why KYCs are very vital to ensure that transactions will be as secure possible. Protecting a users and investors as well.

Just because people uses patrol to burn flags doesn't mean we're gonna ban patrol.. everything has good and bad side. it is up to us which side we're gonna use it. even fiat currency used in crime for decads. that means government banned them too?Huh

Many public misconceptions about the many uses of Bitcoin by criminals, but the thought is wrong thinking. This thought is caused by the many people who think that Bitcoin is anonymous, when in fact Bitcoin is so opposed to it, all transactions Bitcoin transparent and everyone in the world can see the ongoing Bitcoin transactions.

People may not be able to connect a particular individual identity to a Bitcoin transaction directly (this is why sometimes Bitcoin is also called pseudo anonymous), but if they find it, then they can see all the transactions you have done on the Bitcoin network. This is why Bitcoin is the wrong way if you use it for things that are not true.

Criminals will always have this world. And I think this is one of the main reason for bitcoin fallen and many people don't like bitcoin for this reason. They use this technology to transfer money untraceable, we can't stop criminal from doing illegal way. It is because bitcoin is anonymous so that's the reason why criminals use bitcoin.

Some crimes are not only done through bitcoin, but there are also crimes committed through banking, through government and so on. Some people who commit such crimes certainly say they are criminals but it is impossible to say bitcoin, banking and government is a crime .For that I want to say that bitcoin is good and very useful especially for me, and those who use bitcoin for crime is a criminal who must be punished and responsible for the crimes they committed.

This is just an excuse for those who hate bitcoin and do not settle for their ability to change the world.
There is crime everywhere using fiat and other reserves of value and this is not exclusive of the negotiations with crypto

Indeed, many peoples and many government hates on bitcoin because they can not take benefits. Criminal action and bitcoin dont have relation, its depending on our behaviour. If we using bitcoin for good and positive, bitcoin can bring us many opportunity to make extra money

I think it's hard for the police to find the culprit. I think here the problem is with the individual. If a bitcoin is a wise and good person will not commit a crime. Bitcoin is not to blame, it is wrong that only individuals make bitcoin a network for committing a crime.

yeah, but we cannot avoid bad people to use bitcoin as their gateway to transfer dirty funds from one member to another, as it's untraceable and impossible to caught owner of that addresses.
yeah i agree, Bitcoin is not built for this purpose it is humanity who do the dirty works. Technological advancement like Bitcoin is here to assist and help their lives for whatever purpose it will serve

Occasionally we hear of hackers exploiting our loopholes or attempting to infiltrate our electronic wallets to steal the same coin we have. I should be wary the Criminals

This is a scare tactic used to dissuade people from owning bitcoin. Most people who own bitcoin are upright people who simply want to invest in blockchain technology.

Well ,I do not think bitcoin is the cause for these crimes happening. Crimes were there when bitcoin did not exist.

I have seen some news regarding hackers, terrorists, and other criminals using bitcoin for illegal trades.
How the police can find about these transactions?
Even if is hard to track illegal transactions, I don't think that Bitcoin can be a danger to society, since the problem is the society and its people.
Since the beginning of the internet this is happening ( the bad people committing crimes)  and no one is willing to shutdown internet because of that, so in that matters Bitcoin should be equivalent. I think those illegal transaction are one of the reasons some governments and the media are trying to depreciate bitcoin, but the problem is not Crypto/blockchain or Bitcoin, is just the society.
I think it would be very difficult for the Police to trace it right away but it is not impossible for the Police to make a way to stop illegal transactions with Bitcoin. Especially if our police is supported by the Government and they will provide funds for them to get specialists to trace and deal with transactions / crime connected with illegal transactions. You're right, Crypto / Bitcoin will never be a problem and the truth is that it has helped many people.

On the one hand, it's true. Bitcoin is perfect payment for illegal business. On the other hand, money can be the same payment for illegal business. So, i think bitcoin was not created for criminal.

Every think has two aspects, bitcoin can be used for criminal purposes and also for good purposes such as trading.
Yes you are right, people are responsible how they use it.
