Topic: Guns from the Paris Attacks, bought using Bitcoin ? - page 3. (Read 4066 times)
I saw a video with a skilled Pakistani arms vendor who would make a gun or rifle to order while you wait like fast-food. Any gun you wanted, he would forge all the parts from scratch in sand pit. A $2k gun made from scrap wood and rusty bits of metal in minuets.
I'll guess that 50% or more of 'dark web' arms and drug dealers are law enforcement or compromised by them. You'd buy terrorist arms from the usual fanatics in the Balkans, not some random asshole at the other end of Tor.
This is just fud. C'mon why does everytime that something bad happens it has to do with bitcoin? Even if it was bought through the darkweb it doesn't mean that it was bought with bitcoin. Besides, the buyer would need to meet with the seller to receive the guns so probably the was done when they meet, therefore it would be more certain that it would be paid in cash.
No, it's not true. 2 years ago there is an hacker stealing BTC wallet and transfer all BTC on the hacked to his wallet. After a week, police caught him. Finally BTC is anonymous.
What did you mean? Probably this hacker make some mistake… try to catch block 0 owner

I think it's true because illegal stuff can buy only with BTC.
Yes, exactly. I wonder if we ban BTC completely there will be no more illegal weapons, drugs, and black markets and terrorism will be gone.Oh, wait. It won't be gone, because evil doers will always find a way! That is why it is completely wrong to blame: BTC, FIAT or other currencies for it.
Lets talk for a moment: how terrorists are financed exactly? Money and BTC are magically appearing in their wallets?
No. Someone is giving them money. And without fixing that problem first, there won't be end of a terror, ever.
My neighbors little kid terrorizes my cat when it ends up in his back yard. There's only one way to end terrorism worldwide: kill everyone on the planet.

Every time the Dark Web is mentioned, people immediately accept that Bitcoin was associated with it, they would not have used stolen credit cards or hacked PayPal accounts...
No No No.... it has to be Bitcoin. So if these guys, went there and they did odd jobs for cash and they used that cash to buy knifes and they stabbed people to death... would
they have made accusations against cash or the store where it was bought? Guess not... It's just that Bitcoin is special.
No gun illegal gun merchant would accept stolen credit cards or hacked Paypal accounts. And they've already arrested the illegal gun merchant. And terrorists would most likely not use a regular gun shot. Because, you know, they're terrorists. No No No.... it has to be Bitcoin.

It is not easy to find the link between the buyers and sellers of guns with bitcoin. So all this type of news are only spreaded to bring the bitcoin price down and to force government to banned bitcoin like cryptocurrencies.
they found ross. and blake. and a shitload of darkweb dealers
Yes, bought with BTC. Because you can buy illegal stuff with BTC only.
the seller accused in this situation did in fact only accept bitcoin
there is no proof they bought those AKs using bitcoin
I bet they bought it using fiat
If they bought it using bitcoin we would see a really huge transactions few days before the attacks and we would notice it in blockchain right away

there are always huge transactions made throughout the day. these weapons could be bought months before the actual attack. what you say doesn't make sense at all. these weapons could be bought with anything. gold, silver, traded for a car or something else with value. bitcoin receive the blame again. let them prove it first.
I'm pretty sure all this "news" about bitcoin being used in the attacks are mostly unsubstantiated.
Has anyone actually seen any hard evidence linking the usage of bitcoin in large scale terrorism? Although, on the flip side, I guess they probably wouldn't publish too much of the evidence to the public when active investigations are ongoing.
Still, I think most of this is just people imagining it being used.

just because some people decided to buy guns from the dark web doesnt necessarily mean they were bought using bitcoin. bitcoin is actually not that anonymous and if they find one address they find all of them. Bitcoin doesnt deserve a bad name because of what happened. it wasnt bitcoins fault
You can't exaggerate a news just because it's related to Bitcoin!
Bitcoin is the victim, someone use it for crime (just like fiat money).

There are, so far, in every block the "huge transactions"!
open the block chain.info homepage… see with your eyes.
in what sense "we would be notice"?
