Ive read an article about Bill Gates saying that cryptocurrencies kills people. He explained that crypto provokes people to hide thier financial transactions from the government, and revolutionizing terrorism, financial crime etc. Some people use crypto to buy drugs, bombs, guns that are use for drug dealing and terrorism that kills people 'in a fairly direct way'

I think Gates is somehow right about this. But i think it depends on the people who are using cryptocurrency, if they will use it in a good way or in a bad way. What do you think?

We are in a nutty fucking world right now. To think btc will be the reason for the rise of terrorism and drugs your sadly mistaken MR Gates.  Your beloved fiat has allowed this.  Constant printing of fiat which are untraceable has allowed this to spring up. The fact that we base a person worth on the amount of paper one owns has caused this. I could go on and on.

True! We should not generalize everything that applies to everyone/all, but only those who mishandle the coins. It will depend on how will people use it, how will they manipulate their own coin and how will they protect it.

Cryptocurrencies is not kill all people, if we could manage and control off cryptocurrencies we could take much profit from it. But if we could not control and analyze about the cryptocurrencies it will make us kill by them. Just analyze and keep you have check before you buy cryptocurrencies and you have to know right time to buy and always know right time to sell, and you can be rich by cryptocurrencies, but if you dan’t have news about cryptocurrencies it will make you kill by them.

At first bitcoin and other crypto currency are used to some illegal activity of criminals but it doesn't mean that crypto currency kill people its the people behind the crypto currency that used it to kill people for the sake of their selves. Only some people make the image of crypto currency to be bad even its for a good use.

Bill Gates is a very Lillian man, if not one of the top 10 in the entire world.
I'm not speaking just on net worth but rather on what he has done for society.
I have to disagree with him here though.

I think that bitcoin shouldn't blame because of this because it is just like money. If bitcoin is the root of these problems, then all monetary systems should be eliminated. People should start to themselves what is moral and what is illegal. People are dying not because of bitcoin but the misuse of money that should have been use to improve the society. I hope people will finally realize that.

I am also a crypto holder, and I do respect what the government is doing to us. They want us to become transparent and claim every undocumented source of funds. Simple ! They want to tax everything. They want to tax the profits we got from crypto.

You should base your reasoning on some proof. Lind to the article please.

Accepting that that was said by Gates it would be a silly article because the same could be applied to $ and nobody is saying that US dollars kill people.

Absolutely.It's not about killing people but in fact its love people because many people joined crypto world will have an opportunity to have a huge income.

This is absurd especially coming from Bill Gates, which inventions are being used for all the things he mentioned every day. Also, who knows what else he invests his money in? What about the things he could do besides charity (which is wonderful, don't get me wrong). If a pen can be used as a murder weapon in the hand of the right person, with freedom comes responsibility. To me, this is hypocrisy, as for example millions of nearly-slave workers are producing cellphones everyday to afford his mobile OS, for example.

I think that government provokes people to hide thier financial transactions from the government Grin. Yes, some people use crypto to buy drugs, bombs, guns that are use for drug dealing and terrorism that kills people 'in a fairly direct way'. And the rest use usd for such purchases! But no one writes articles about the pernicious influence of usd.

You are wright that it depends on the people who are using cryptocurrency or usd if they will use it in a good way or in a bad way.

I think it all depends on ourselves as a bitcoin user. Every person has a different character there is evil and some good. The good bitcoin is used for some kind of future investment, additional income and to buy the goods we want which is certainly a positive meaning. If a bad thing happens yes it could be used as an evil act for example blackmail and assassin

Right. He was just generalizing bitcoins as a bad tools while it really depends on the user. Drugs is not illegal for doctor to use in medicinal purpose. Knife isnt dangerous in the hand of cook.
Blame the person not the tools. There are a lot of positive use of bitcoin other than the negatives one

But a different opinion expressed by Mike Hearn, a developer aka Bitcoin developers. After struggling with Bitcoin for five years, and resulting Bitcoin software used by millions of users, Hearn argued that Bitcoin was nearing death.

"Bitcoin is an experiment, and just like most experiments, they can fail, so you should not invest in things (Bitcoin) that can make you lose money," Hearn said in his blog, medium.com.

Post-use in 2009, Bitcoin is quite popular. However, due to unsure security issues, eventually many countries are banning the presence of Bitcoin, like Thailand. Indonesia itself starting early in 2014 has legalized the use of Bitcoin.

According to Hearn, there are many factors that make the fate of Bitcoin already horned, one of which is the failure of the world community to respond to the presence of Bitcoin. Well, through his blog, Hearn mentioned the main cause of Bitcoin failure, like these 5 things.

If he does bad things, he does not care about crypto currency or fiat money, of course, it's easier to use crypto currency, but the crypto currency does not change good people in a bad way.

I don't agree with this topic, cryptocurrency is like forex trading it takes time to perfect your trading.
One golden rule about crypto trading though:
NEVER BUY A CRYPTO WHEN IT IS PUMPING

If they ban bitcoin just because terrorists uses it to buy guns, why not ban all currencies altogether? I really don't understand why people tends to blame the trails of mistake and not the wrongdoing itself. Bitcoin never meant to hurt anyone or take part to any illegal activities yet people always make drama out of it. Bitcoin aims to change our economy to be great and free from monopolized influences.
