That is option 3...



This one would be the best representation of magic narcotics, but to be Honest selling hard drugs is like destroying the community around you and it would not really help bitcoin at all, it will just give a bad image.

Obviously I voted no , the bitcoin price is not correlated with the trade of hard drugs. Maybe at the beginning yes , but now with a lot of merchants started to accept it , and especially a lot of people started to use it directly for buying products "the things are changed". ~ at the moment the price is only a question of speculation (in my personal opinion) and I hope to see it stabilized in the next 5-10 years.
There is a high percentage of bitcoin related trade that are done for illegal activities, mostly the sale of illegal drugs.

Some have argued that the reason that the price of bitcoin went up so much after Ross Ulbright was arrested was because the world was made aware of the fact that it was possible to buy durgs via tor. You could also argue that the price of bitcoin is at least somewhat correlated to the volume of drugs traded over tor and dark market sites

Let me elaborate...

Do you think the Bitcoin price crash will drive more traders to offset their losses by selling narcotics?



The overlap between Bitcoin traders and all those with the capability and mentality to do something like that would be minimal. So no.

"Listen, it's okay for people to ask for help. Like when they're in a drunk tank with a guy who calls himself "Mr. Businessman." "


"I'm wearing a suit, you see."

This is true. I've heard reaching out for help is critical

I think it's more likely to drive people to drinking.  Smiley
It's more likely that the price will have people rejoicing and buyin for bargain prices and jumping for joy as the market turns around and makes a boom in new territory that's inevitable just like the prices of oil prices have people dumbfounded. Know when to hold em and know when to fold em, now ain't the time to throw in the towel but amass like your livelihood depends on it.

Maybe for some.  Isn't that sort of what Silk Road was all about anyways???  I won't ever be considering anything illegal.  But, what's "legal" seems to be constantly changing with various American states going against federal regulation and legalizing Marijuana.  I can imagine that some time in the future other drugs could also be legalized and society as a whole may finally mature and such things wouldn't be such a big deal.
