they can not unite among criminals and bitcoin why so it's only an analysis for them if there is a criminal in bitcoin where the latest proof is a lot of negative news about bitcoin that bitcoin can be used criminals to: transfer money criminals like money selling drugs from corruption and there are many but all of them are just the analysis of jurists and there is no evidence whatsoever

Like I've said before, you cannot blame bitcoin for people's misuse of the technology. Just like you can't blame a gun for wars. It is the people who use the power incorrectly who ruin it for everyone

The problem is not BItcoin itself. It's the society. The World needs to be balanced. Good and bad work together for the survival of the world. So those are beyond our limits we can only reduced it but can't eradicate it.
Criminals are always present in every time and society, they are using different currencies for their different purposes, they may have used Dollar pond, Euro and any other currency which find it suit for their activities, they will surely use bitcoin if they find it more easy and convenient for their activities. not a single currency is specially created for the criminal people.

Right, bitcoin is not a threat, bitcoin is an opportunity, maybe you heard the news of a bitcoin heist where blockchain and AI helped Dubai cops to catch those criminals. which means, criminals cannot use bitcoin anymore - they will get caught. so, criminals will keep using the fiat, cash notes and golds as they are usinig for centuries.

Well, unfortunately, criminals can always find many ways.. I believe that in time more people will know about bitcoin and they’re gonna understand the main idea..
About the misuse of something being a crime tool, it all depends on the person using it. Could be, bitcoin and fiat used as a crime tool, have you ever heard of a web deep? How deep is that no one knows. All things have the potential to serve as a crime tool.

Yes. We do not have that power to stop it all. Only preserve the good that bitcoin will give by spreading the good news and what will it be in the future.

I guess there are really people who wont fight fair. First thing they will think about is how to cheat and make faster money. Or it might be the right thing for them, based on their own perspective.
Best thing to do is let the future decide. As long as there are great supporters then we wont have much problem.

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.
Yes, I believe that the real problem here is the society they abused the use of bitcoin which causes some bitcoin user disturbance in their use of bitcoin or some of us feels unsafe when using bitcoin without proper use of bitcoin may cause a lot of trouble in the company, investors and the users so If I were you use it wisely.

Actually Bitcoin is not completely untraceable. Every transaction should be listed in the blockchain and the federal agency able to check it, as in the article I found http://www.sciencemag.org/news/2016/03/why-criminals-cant-hide-behind-bitcoin
Federal agents can retrieve data from many places and match them that can be used as an evidence.

This is the act of a group of irresponsible people who have abused the good function of Bitcoin, and of course this must be followed up by the police to look for these people.
I think it's not from Bitcoin that's wrong, but from those people.
People who know Bitcoin are, I think, smart people, but unfortunately there are some people who have misused their intelligence to do things that make them stupid.

The use of money by terrorists does not mean that the concept of their existence is bad or that their production must be stopped. The same is true of Bitcoin, which was created to be able to send tokens of a certain value between users without the participation of financial institutions. These transfers are much cheaper than traditional banks, and Bitcoin's concept of anonymity has been built on a human inalienable right to privacy and freedom in making decisions within the limits of the law. The possible use of Bitcoin by terrorists is a delicate flaw on his person and, as in the case of cash, he should not eliminate it from everyday and widespread use. History has proven many times that technology is not bad, only people who use it.

There are always criminals in every aspect of humankind. Bitcoin never meant to be used in any illegal activities. Those transactions are anonymous so we are also not sure how it happens. And bitcoin fluctuates, so the payment could be difficult for criminals in some times. I think the government just needs something to blame on and since bitcoin has the spot light, they just waved it over which is both sad and dumb.

Every thing that is being used by humans, there will be people who will use it even illegally just to complete their objectives. There is nothing we can do but to watch out the other end of the bargain. If some criminal use bitcoin to buy illegal goods, how will be the goods delivered? I think the government should focus on that matter more than trying to control bitcoin.

The illegal goods are not the only problem here. If bitcoin is taken advantage by criminals, people will see bitcoin as bad and will ruin its volatile image and respect from the public. But then bitcoin can't be fully controlled by the government. I fear that there will be no absolute solution to this problem. But personally, I don't blame bitcoin or any money that falls into bad intentions. It is just a tool after all, so we should look out at the criminals.

Criminality should not be associated with Bitcoin, if we look back, long before the creation of the internet, there was the legendary Ponzi scheme and even it’s used until now. Actually theft and other crimes using fiat as the medium of exchange, not Bitcoin, it’s not appropriate to see Bitcoin as a criminal transaction tool that is also used for many good and productive activities.

Yes that is right to say that still most of the people do not have any idea about bitcoin,  very little number of people have information about bitcoin, i do not think bitcoin can be use for such illegal activities, i think still the medium for such activities are fiat and not bitcoin. I am sure that bitcoin will be using for legal activities.

Not right to directly relate Bitcoin with the criminals. Crime took place with any currency but using Bitcoin for criminal activity is not a good option. As your transaction is easily accessed on blockchain by anyone. you will be traced easily.
