Topic: How police think about Bitcoin enthusiasts ? - page 3. (Read 3776 times)
There are many things can happened.Maybe police can look at the bitcoin enthusiast as drug users seller or buyer or even a terrorist.Because bitcon is always being connected to terrorist and illegal things online,cause drug lords and terrorist sometimes use bitcoin as mode of payment on buying drugs and heavy weapons
I think police thinks of BTC guys are mean hackers. Basement still lives with the parents smart.
Eh, I wouldn't say that's what they think. Most people just think Bitcoin is some other system that is far more complex than just a bunch of "hackers" in their basements, but they might not always think of it in a good light.The police are probably fine with people owning Bitcoin, as long as they aren't doing anything illegal with them.
I hope you guys are aware that the police force of every country has a Cyber Crime department where they deal with all the crimes done through the Internet or digitally and I am sure they very well know what Bitcoin is. Now I would think they only go after the big scammers and don't bother with the petty Bitcoin thieves that are trying to scam $15 for their next Xbox game over the forums 
You are very right here, but not only small but bigger scams also happen with bitcoins I think. Yes still they have too many cases to handle and such issues of 10-15$ scams are just a time waste for them. They would like to catch a hacker than a scammer.

Where did you hear that bitcoin users are considered suspects? This is just a rumor which has no truth and mainly people who don't want users to be associated with bitcoins spread this FUD. There is no harm if you are a bitcoin dealer but if the coins you earn are too much to believe you are working honestly in the currency, that's when it can be a trouble.
I thought police hate bitcoin traders.
no, police hate criminals, and their job is to stop them. regardless of who is an enthusiast of the bitcoin or an investment guru, or a teacher.
what you say it's called racism
as long as you are not doing anything illegal you have nothing to worry about.
using bitcoin whether it is for trading or just selling stuff and getting paid in bitcoin is not against the law in most places.
so just search for your country's laws about bitcoin and paying taxes for your transactions, and never pay any attention what others say with FUD.

When it comes to a crime, what would the police think about a guy trading with bitcoins frequently in large volumes ?(hundreds of BTCs)
I've heard they can't stand bitcoin dealers out and they become a suspect immediately with no questions asked in case there's a crime where the bitcoin enthusiast is involved. Is that true ?

Yes, because it's well known Bitcoin users are murderers. Where did you hear that stupid shit from?
being read every time in newspapers.
Just as you quoted, due to large number of users getting into criminal activities every time we make a deal, make sure you don't end up with some problem with the scammers, mainly people are trying to hack.
That's the way Bitcoin is being traded. It doesn't mean that police are targeting Bitcoin. Police are simply targeting dumbasses that don't know the law.
If you took 50 btc to a Starbucks to trade for $22,000 in cash from some guy you hooked up with on localbitcoins then you deserve to go to jail. Not just because it's illegal but because I don't want dumbasses to just walk around unsupervised.
Now in the statement above replace (50 btc) with (25 oz of gold). It's still illegal and has nothing to do with bitcoin.

This is honestly the most ridiculous statement I read in recently. You know that this is completely based on personal views of the specific policeman.I've heard they can't stand bitcoin dealers out and they become a suspect immediately with no questions asked in case there's a crime where the bitcoin enthusiast is involved. Is that true ?
It is like saying that every pit bull owner trains his dog to be a vicious killer. Which is totally false.
as long as you earned bitcoin from legall activities like trading or other activites, then that's none of their business, but if you earned bitcoin from illegal activity like terror in my area a guy threaten Mall in our location with a bomb and demanded to be paid in 100 bitcoins , then i think you will face the police

in my country,police have no rules to arrest people who do wrong with bitcoin or crypto currency,so its causing some people do a crime with bitcoin,the only thing can blame people who do crime with bitcoin is internet laws,and that only have minor punishment.I've heard they can't stand bitcoin dealers out and they become a suspect immediately with no questions asked in case there's a crime where the bitcoin enthusiast is involved.

it differs from country to country. some countries have more bitcoin users and more detailed rules about using/trading cryptocurrencies. but as far as i know owning bitcoin is not against the law anywhere, some places prohibit the trading or accepting bitcoin as payment because the could not regulate bitcoin and they want taxes to be clear on their merchants.

police in my country. do not know about bitcoin. although you steal bitcoin your friend, you would not go to jail
I don't think police should be suspicious or judgmental if your having large amount of bitcoin.As long as you earn your bitcoin honestly like trading,and not from illegal activities I think you don't afraid with police.
Here the police doesn't consider it a big crime if we trade in bitcoins but if in any case we are associated with stolen debit cards, hacked bank accounts or any other illegal or unauthorized activities, a legal action can be taken against us.
In some countries, most Police force haven't heard of bitcoin yet so they're basically clueless but unknown stuff is always attached to something negative.
